Hi everyone here is the third and final part to the
please see the list over on the original blog
The front covers are gray board put through a machine with the Poison
Texture fade. I coloured this with Prussian Blue, english red oxide, burnt sienna ,
Carbon Black, Gold and interference gold Deco Art Media Fluid Acrylics Range.
I didn't put the put any antiquating cream on this as I loved the
effect that the iridescent gold gave to the cover.
Have I said yet how I really LOVE!!!! this
range it is just amazing.
I coloured three tags with distress ink in the following colours Old paper,
Antique Linen, Scattered Straw, Gathered Twigs, Vintage Photo,
Black Soot and Faded jeans. Once coloured I spritzed lightly
with water to activate the ink.
I rolled out Fimo clay and stamped the skull from the Tim
Holtz apothecary set and the Happy Halloween.
This is a close up of the inside of the covers. and one and
a bit of the inside pages.
Once I had baked the clay in the oven I used the the antiquating
cream in patina green and a touch of white. I highlighted
the peaks with treasure gold.
Using the stamps from the Tim Holtz classic plate I used
the compass stamp and stamped randomly over the
page.
The stamps used on these two pages are off the halloween plate
and the classic plate the bats are off the blueprint plate.The
circles are covered in gilding flakes and surrounded
by small beads.
This page has the compass from the indigo blue plate
stamped into black Fimo clay then coloured with antiquing cream
then highlighted with treasure gold.
Bats done the same way with Fimo clay diamante surrounded
with small beads. Long strip of clay stamped with the
lost coast bubbles stamp.
Indigo blue stamp die cut cogs and pale blue diamante
bead placed in the centre.
A close up of the same piece.
Another close up of the second page.
The Cob web was made by using my hot glue gun and free hand running the
hot glue into a web. I then highlighted with treasure gold. Then Prussian
blue Brusho sprinkled lightly then gently spritzed with water.
The Tomb stone was from the blueprint stamps using
Fimo clay again. I also used Frantage embossing
powders in shabby white.
Another photo of the bat, spider and web
Inside the back cover without the brusho but brushed with
treasure gold.
Filigree corner coloured with antiquing cream and knocked back
again treasure gold was applied.
The back cover I stamped the writing from the halloween plate
into black Fimo clay and backed in the oven once cooled
I used the antiquating cream in the verdi and then
highlighted with treasure gold.
This is the bat from the blue prints set stamped into the Fimo clay and
highlighted with treasure gold. I used my bind it all machine to
compile the book.
That's it folks I hope you enjoyed reading about it as much as
I enjoyed making it. Thank you for stoping by and please
feel free to leave a comment or two.
