Welcome to Day 20 of the 31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN, as well as day 20 of the COUNTDOWN TO HALLOWEEN, and Day 20 of THE REAL WITCHES OF HALLOWEEN.
Today's Halloween funny:
Today's creations is a small bit of Decopage. I found this pre-carved and wood burned Red Cedar plaque in a thrift store for 50 cents.
I took a piece of white card stock and covered it well with FIBER-SCRAPS E Z STAIN walnut stain, and let it dry.
Then I stamped the DOTD Female in mourning stamp from BOMBSHELL stamps. I used Staz-on Ink, then I used my BIC Mark Its! to color it in. From the same stamp set(Growing Hearts) I stamped "The Heart Grows Fonder" in black staz-on above the image.
I trimmed it down a bit (like to the over all size of the plaque). Then I burned all around the paper with one of those grill-lighter things and stomped it out with a wet dish cloth. In places it burned a bit more than I wanted, but I think it came out nice anyway. Then I crumpled it up a few times. I used Matte MOD PODGE to glues it down, and to coat it.

Amazing, Susan! Love how you've colored and distressed the image. You are a brave one burning the edges like that, but I think it's FAB! xxD
WoW - look at the gloss and the crinkles on that... it's stunning. Love the colouring and burning. Last time I did a burnt job for the SI DT I completely set light to my first 3 !!!!! Lovely plaque Susan :-D xxxx
oh goodness! incredible! awesome project my dear!
This is amazing Susan!!! I love it!!! I hope that you will hang it up in your living room, so that you can admire it every time that you are not feeling well!!!! It will give you shot of good endorphins (sp?) that you need to feel better!!! Beautiful!!!
Susan,
What a beautiful Plaque. I'v never tried burning before cool technique! My luck I would burn up my hand or room or something LOL. Love the "Funnies" at the top of the page the 2 witches... That is cute!!
Peace,
KristyLee
If I tried that burning technique I'd have my work go up in flames for sure!
I love this a fantastic piece of art

Susan, a lovely idea to use a thrift store plaque. I tend to get a lot of goodies there since I don'a have a handy dandy Michaels. The burning above her head is especially nice as it looks like you caught it just in time. Very, very pretty!
Very cool plaque, I love the unique shape. Great job with the burnt edges and coloring too.
Pretty cool reuse, love it !!! Love those treasures!
This turned out beautiful, Susan! Love the burnt edges around her & the colors you used. Thanks for the funny!
