Alrighty....for Day 7 - I used one of my cool coffins that I got from Michael's. I spray painted the entire thing black and glue'd some catfish bones (we have a big pond and I find bones all the time) to the outside of the coffin. I distressed the bones with Tim Holtz inks. Then I stamped my Lonely Boy (Smeared Ink) images on white card stock, colored them with prisma color markers, and cut them out. Let me tell you, cutting out a spider web is not easy...even with an Xacto blade. After all my pieces were colored and trimmed, I made a couple of paper accordians by folding black card stock in opposite directions. I used these to "float" my stamped images inside the coffin. After getting them all in place I added some dark purple tissue paper as the coffin lining. You can see that Lonely Boy floats above the lining...cause he's a ghost...DUH! LOL ;) I put Puff and his spiderweb on the opposite side and then I painted the OOZE with acrylic paints. I used a fork to get the dripping effect on the outside of the coffin. I hope you like! :)
Have fun hopping around on the other Wicked Blogs!
