For my entry, I chose an altered book cover, as I wanted to do something other than a card. Luckily, I stumbled upon Lindsey's Altered Halloween Books here and followed her directions -- sooo fun!!!

Once my Mod Podge had dried, I painted on Adirondack Pitch Black Acrylic Paint and once that dried used Viva Decor's Inka Gold to run over my pieces. The red eyes were part of the piece when purchased, so I simply scraped the paper towel away and left them there in all their gory 'glory' -- Hee!
My second book started out as an inexpensive journal with lightweight cardboard covers. I simply covered it first in a layer of paper towel and then painted & scrunched it up a bit. When dry, I added my spider web using hot glue, along with more letters mounted onto a Spellbinders' Resplendent Rectangles die. For this one, I kept it simple by adding Inka Gold in Graphite over the web, lettering and label edge. A felt spider and a small silver moon finish it off.
Hope you'll create a Halloween project and join us this week for my spooky good fun @ My Sheri Crafts! ;)

Marge,
This is fantastic. I think it's the best thing I've seen you make and you have already made some stunners. The thought that has gone in to it, it's just amazing.

Awesome, Marge! Fun projects!
Marge, this is gore and fabulousness at the same time! What a great idea of using a necklace as an embellishment.
