Day 11: Merry Creepmas!

Welcome back for Day 11 of

We are counting down to Christmas Smeared Ink style with our annual 12 Days of Creepmas blog hop!  What a freaktastic hop we are having and sadly it's nearly over, just one more day to go but then that means Santa isn't far behind YIPPIE!  If you've missed all the fun then start the hop on Dec 1st and hop your way through the Jolly Bloggers blog roll over there in my right sidebar, you've got lots of creeptastic Christmas themed projects to look at!

Thank you so much for hopping with me and leaving me your lovely comments ;0)

Now for my Day 11 project!

Merry Creepmas!
an altered domino that could be a tree ornament, a magnet or a pendant, but it isn't...so have my previous clues given the game away?  One final clue coz sadly today is the 2nd to last day of this fab hop!  Clue #4 it can hang on a wall or a door!  

Update:  YES!  It is a wreath, well done to those who figured it out teehee :0), you'll see pix of my entire project on Day 12!

Today's domino is a combination of two Tim Holtz - Stamper's Anonymous ATC collage stamps:  "Reindeer Games" and "X-Ray".  I first stamped "Reindeer Games" with red StazOn and then over stamped "X-Ray" in black.  I removed portions of the combined collage with an old Marvy Le Plume alcohol colourless blending marker and altered the 2nd part of the word "Christmas" and turned it into "Creepmas" with a red Sharpie marker.  I added various shades of blue Sharpie to the web area and drew a Santa Hat on Skellie's head...he's very chuffed with it and thinking of giving Jack Skellington a run for his money!  I edged the domino with a DecoColor metallic silver paint pen and coloured the sides too.  I finished off the piece with a gold metallic wired ribbon bow, a snowflake and added crystal Stickles glitter glue for some magic sparkle.

Just a few more stops on the hop for you today, now off you go to Lady B!!

Thanks for visiting with me, see you again for the finale on Dec 23rd!

 Here's my 2nd Smeared and Smudged DT project for today - an Amazonian Amulet found in the clutches of a doomed treasure hunter!

Doublecross Domino "Amazonian Amulet"

I used one of Smeared Ink's feathered skull rubber stamps from their Fringe set on this one.
I stamped the wooden Doublecross domino with black Archival Ink, heat set the image and then coloured the design with Sharpie markers in my signature Sharpie Domino Queen technique.  I then added a red and gold tear drop sticker jewel to the feathered head piece.  To complete the necklace I wired wrapped the domino a few times with thin black craft wire with the skull charm attached and added the bail by twisting the wire on one of the passes round.  The skull charm was silver toned so I coloured it with a brown Sharpie to give it a more aged gold tone and then added the brown suede cord necklace to complete the look.
