Day 28 - Smeared & Smudged 31 Days of Halloween + DominoArt

Day 28 or Smeared & Smudged 31 Days of Halloween - DominoArt!



























Supply List:

standard domino
large craft stick
alcohol inks
permanent black ink
stamps: wings + face - Smeared Ink Quoth the Raven set
             crown - Tim Holtz
patterned paper
three gems
lamination film (for extra durability)
eyelash trim

I created this Edgar Allan Poe bookmark/plant stick from an altered domino and craft stick. I colored the domino with the alcohol ink and then used permanent black ink to stamp on Edgar's face. The crown and wings were stamped on to design paper. They were laminated to add stability. The piece is embellished with three golden rhinestones and a scrap of eyelash trim.

I am entering this bookmark/plant stick in the following challenges:

Inky Impressions - #131 Halloween/Black +Orange
Crafty Hands - #1 anything goes
Left of Center - loc

What a magical idea. I am thinking of ways to use all sorts of fantasy images on sticks.
Have you created a monster in my imagination?
You will do well in your challenges.
