Add me some pearl

Hi everyone,

Can't believe that Wednesday it's Halloween. On one hand I find it cool that it's finally here, and on the other hand I'm feeling a bit sad, because I have to wait a whole year to make more Halloween projects. So this week the challenge of Simon Says Stamp and Show is to show some pearl in your project. This can be interpreted as you see fit. This is maybe my last chance for a Halloween project, and I took it with both hands and made ​​two pages in my art journal.



I initially started with some Dylusions ink spray, but soon it went into a whole other direction when I added some gold paint. I used the Dylusions Spray over the  gold paint and used some different stencils.

On the fence applied some texture paint and then painted it brown and the pumpkin is cut with my Silhouette Cameo and inked with Distress Ink.


Of course I had to use some Perfect Pearls, with my most used Halloween stamp!


I found this beautiful lace in my fabric closet and couldn't resist to play dress up with the dress form once more!


To join in all you need to do is make a project that fits this weeks challenge and you can be the winner of the $50 gift voucher that our amazing sponsor Simon Says Stamp offers. This prize will go to a random entry. So go over to the Stamp and Show Challenge blog, let the DT members inspire you and join in the fun!

Thank you for stopping by! Love to see you next time!

Hugs,
Sandra

Sandra, your art journal pages are very cool! I love your background. It's wickedly fun! I also love all of Tim's die cuts that you've used on your pages. The picket fence and the dress form look fantastic against the orange-ish background. Love how you've done the dress form! <3 Candy

Where do I start? This is absolutely fabulous. LOVE the background - that gold has given the whole thing such an edge. Using the dressform mannequin and the chandelier is an inspired way of doing Halloween without the bats/graves etc. May 'borrow' that idea:) Hugs, Buttons x
