Day 22 of the 31 days and my 6th piece for DESTEMPELWINKEL

Welcome to day #23..... my 6th piece as guest designer at DESTEMPELWINKEL..... and today i have an altered paper mache skull to share with you. I used set #33 ANIMAL SKELETONS..... I stamped onto white fine grade tissue paper, i tore out my images an adhered them to the skull i had already painted off white and allowed to dry thoroughly.
When my images were completely dry, i 'aged' it in places with black and grey ink.... i glued on black gems, then gave the skull 2 coats of crafters enamel.











I wanted this skull to look similar to those amazing ancient decorated skulls.... its not as good as i would have liked but its not to bad.



I love this set of stamps.... i'm sure i'll use them for many more projects.

Please guys if you have time, click on my title to go to the DESTEMPELWINKEL DT blog... leave a comment and maybe become a follower....? I want brownie points with Jetske (the owner) as its one DT i aspire to be on sometime in the future when i'm good enough.



I shall enter this into the following challenges.....

    Beautiful job on your decorated skull. I love that you used all of the animal skeletons on it and that you somehow make it look like old bone!

    The skull is awesome. Personally, I think you're more than good enough to make their team. You'd be a huge asset to them and they'd be lucky to have you.
