Hello Friends

Hero Arts October Sketch Challenge

When i first saw this challenge, i immediately thought of this stamp set.  I just couldn't find a circle sentiment that fit perfectly in the die cut (until an hour ago). 

After die cutting the circles, i applied Tumble Glass distress ink before removing it from the die.  Stamped the images twice, with Memento Tuxedo Black and Barn Door.  Cut out the red hats and scarves then glue them on top of the images using Inkssentials Glossy Accents. 

I like the result.  The snowmen are so adorable.  Let me know what you think!!

Here's my take on the challenge










Supplies:
- Mummy: Stampin' Up Spooktacular Greetings set
- Sentiment: $1 stamp from Michaels :p
- Distress Ink Black Soot, Crushed Olive
- Diamond Stickles
- Die cut: Spellbinders Nestabilities Labels Eight

To create the green glow on the mummy, i smeared Crushed Olive around the face and hands using q-tip, then colored them with the No. 8 violet marker in Marvy Le Plume II Primary set.

The frame and mummy are mounted on foam tapes.  

Enjoy!!
