H is for Haunt

Hello.  Welcome.  We are enjoying a rare sunny Sunday.  I hope you are too.  Presenting my altered playing card for the Craft Barn Alpha/Dictionary challenge.  We are playing with the letter H.  My first thought went to Halloween but then I ran across Haunt.  And the VLVS moodboard.......

I started stamping VLVS spooky tree and cobweb corner onto the back of my playing card that I had covered with some white paper.  Then I got busy with the Hickory Smoke distress and London Fog archival to add some misty spookiness.  I also added some highlights with a white gel pen.  

VLVS Frank negotiating dangerous paths in, to and from his favourite haunt.  At first I thought he was pointing to the danger sign, but then realised he was just out to hang up his jack-o-lantern....  

VLVS danger skull sign and x-ray turtle stamped on shrink plastic and skrunk.  Tip of the day.... don't use archival on shrink plastic.  It bleeds.  Had to do a bit of a detail save with the white pen in a couple of areas of turtles' bones.  Added some details to the steps and the grass border using a black pen.  Don't step in the water Frank!  Looks like it might be a snapping turtle!!!!  Word definition from OED. 

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz
