I couldnt pass up this oppitunity to use one of these wonderful coffins.
I painted it black...what else?
Stamped and embossed the skull from DIMENTION FORTH and the used silver/green sukura pen to go around my embossing. I embossed in silver around the top and bottom edge, and stamped and embossed a grungy border along the top and bottom opening edges.... i painted inside black also. When it was dry i used 2 coats of satin vanish. Now inside.....? I have used scrunched up tissue paper.... just as padding/protection.... it can be remove.
Inside is a choker i made.... using black waxed cord, square black beads, larger square siver coloured beads with a cross on them....
....a couple of crosses very similar to the ones on the beads and in the centre is a skeleton torso on a black cross..... all very goth..... now do i wear it or do i sell it?
Please come and join in with us TAGGERS this week..... you dont have to do a coffin..... although i'd be chuffed to bits if you did!
31 dayers..... the list of WICKED BLOGS is on my side bar..... have fun and i hope you are inspired!.... if not by me but everyone else on the list.
Another halloween creation tomorrow..... thanks for visiting love lynx
