DAY #10.... macabre monday, smeared ink and de-stempelwinkel....PHEW!!!!

Well folks this post is for everything listed in the post header.... if you are a hopper just leave a generic comment at the bottom.... i'd hate to bore you to much!
1st up is my piece for SMEARED INK..... the new challenge is BLACK BIRDS....remember to enter you must use at least one SMEARED INK stamp.
This is a 10x10 inch canvas collage....i used stamps from QUOTH THE RAVEN.... AS DEATH and DEAD CITY.
I painted the canvas cream although it looks fairly white in the pics...it isn't.



Next..... as its Monday its gotta be MACABRE MONDAY..... our new challenge is GODS and MONSTERS.....use mythology to inspire your art piece this week..... and dont forget...we dont want CUTE... no, no ,NO!



I made 3 tiles..... (to be used at a later date for something)..... the images are from DOVER publications...coloured with promarkers ....mounted onto very sturdy card, the triple embossed with utee.







I chose to do , DRAGON (of cause...i love them!), GORGON and CYCLOPS.










Finally today is my 3rd day as guest designer at DE-STEMPELWINKEL.... I altered another box.... i used basic grey papers....



black organza ribbon....lots of ink.... and a wonderful skull stamp from...you guessed it... DE-STEMPELWINKEL









The faux porcelain skull is made from 5 stamped images.... fussy cut.... (cutting various bits away for the different layers to give it a 3D appearance).... layered up with silicone.... then dipped in utee in my melting pot.....



I dipped a metal heart in as well and stuck them together whilst still hot....... i liked the effect so much that i made a matching necklace..... using some pandora style beads and black organza ribbon.



....here you can see that the skulls really do have dimention and look darned good.... the are really hard and durable.... i wouldnt recommend getting them wet though..... but as a 'party' piece of jewelry they are wonderful.



Sorry if i bored you to tears.... see you tomorrow for day #11.... i promise a much smaller post! The full blog list is on my side bar.... and a link to SMEARED INK and DE-STEMPELWINKEL.
I shall link all these to the following challenges
