‎Corvoidea - 31 Days Of Halloween Day 2

Merry met crafty friends.  Tis nearing the witching hour and the bird of ill omen stands watch in the night.  Bwahhahahahahahaha


I started with a dark blue base card and stamped the main image which is Crafty Individuals Gothic Crow stamp.  Then I masked it and stamped the text of Edgar Allen Poe's The Raven poem.  This is in the Crafty Individuals The Raven set.  I'm actually impressed I could read it!!  That is teeny tiny text.  So cool the detail you get with real rubber stamps!!!   I go astray........  I used white dye ink and gave the whole card a watercolour wash.  It's my first time trying this and I'm quite pleased with the result.  Practice will make perfecter.  Then I remasked the crow and used distress oxide for the moon.  

This is my spooktacular offering for today.  Back soon with more.  Hugz
