Creepy By Tracy Blackwolf

 Hello friends! 

Today I wanted to do a creepy art tag, so here we go....

So for this piece, I wanted the clown to be super bright and the rest to be gloomy. So I painted him in with 

Marker Forte re inkers. I like to squeeze some out onto my acrylic stamp block and use a bit water and a brush. After he was painted and dry, I fussy cut him out and set him aside.

I took a window baseboard and a mica tile and some clear holographic flakes to make my broken window. first I glued the mylar flakes to the inside edges of the window, let dry, and then used double stick tape for the mica tile. After it was taped down, I used a craft knife to cut a jagged hole in the "glass". Then more tape to stick the clown on, carefully pulling his hat flower through the window.

Yes, I did not like the first impression I got so I flipped the card over. At this point I added strips of foam tape to the window frame to give dimension from the tag. Next was to make the tag..

First I spritzed the tag with Speckeled egg spray, then I used a brush to pick up some re

inker of Weathered wood and dripped it from the top of tag. Next I did the same with black soot. I sprayed with a little water to make it run a bit and left it standing up.

I dried it with my heat tool and stuck the window with clown onto the tag. Found some creepy verbage stickers and that was it!

Hope you enjoyed~ until next time, Stay crafty!

 Hello everyone! Hope you  are all staying cool. Today I did a tag for the blog with a nod to one of my favorite childhood movies~ enjoy.

So for this tag I put it in a Texture fade 3D  folder Bricks. Spritz it with water then run through machine.

Then I spritzed the two colors of yellow onto it.

I dried that with my heat tool and then stamped the witch and painted her with  distress sprays  by squirting just a bit onto some plastic and using a paintbrush. I also stamped the legs and put red glitter on the ruby shoes. Fussy cut them out and set aside. I had to figure out the dropped house and came up with woodgrain paper and some pastes.

I painted the paper first with chalk paint and then put some paste on at random. Since I have no patience, I dried that with my heat tool as well and then cut into strips.

Then I started stacking them flat. I used double stick tape to hold them together.

Got the legs placed and more tape. I wanted the witch to have a bit of flow to her cape so I cut a piece of silk and sprayed it with black spray stain. I put foam tape on the back of her and stuck the silk scrap to it.

 So then I stuck the house/legs down using hot glue. everything is far too textured for tape alone and I find it falls apart. Then I needed some earth and foliage texture. I use the moss you can get at craft stores and cut it up small for small things and the 'dirt' is super fine sawdust that I tinted with ink. you can find dirt in the miniatures isle at the craft store though. I glued that on then attached the witch.

Again, I put her on with hot glue. Then I stamped the phrase on some woodgrain paper and painted on the green . I put a strip of Dresden trim at the top and done!

I hope you enjoyed my post this week~ until next time- stay cool and create!
