Today is day 3 of the reveal and we are showcasing 2 fabulous set along with the coordinating die sets! I hope you're ready for more Halloween fun!
Aren't these intricate designs just simply beautiful!!?
How does Jen draw something like this!!?
This set is so fun, I can't wait til it' Halloween!!!
Here are my takes...;-)
I borrowed that fabulous spooky mansion from the Spooky Street set to create a Halloween night scene. The sky and grass are creepy purple, the moon and stars are shining silver, and there are animal skeletons walking around! After everything was assembled together, I thought to myself, I should have used some fun patterned papers instead of solid purple...:-( So why didn't I make another one?
Because I used the Chibi lights to make it super spooky!
The mansion and dog were heat embossed with sparkle black embossing powder on vellum so that the lights can come through easily ;-) The bat was added after it was put all together and that's why he doesn't light up.
So I made a day of the dead banner ;-)
I really wanted to color these beauties! {LOL}
I will be honest, I wasn't too familiar with day of the dead, I knew what it was, but that was pretty much it. So I googled and educated myself a bit ;-)
How they paint their faces with beautiful, bright colors is simply amazing!
That is a work of art for certain!
So I heat embossed all 4 images with black embossing powder on watercolor paper, colored them with my Zig Watercolor pens, and die cut them with the coordinating die. I did not use ant water like I normally do, these pens have intense colors and that's what I wanted.
They decorate for this celebration and I saw a ton of pretty flowers in the photos.
I made these paper flowers/pom poms out of tissue paper to mimic the beautiful decorations ;-)
