HDH149 - Bare Bones

This week at Haunted Design House the challenge is that uses NO dimensional embellishments. That's right.  No rhinestones, no pearls, no ribbons, no chipboard. Pretty much a clean and simple layout. It doesn't have to be a single layer card, but no bumpy bits.


I did some ATCs.  Four are painted and one is using a skull freebie from the Graphics Fairy.

This was painted on kraft cardstock with acrylics.  I messed up her neck but I was too tired to fix it.

This lovely lady is Linda the Grotesque.  There will be more of these .....

 
These are called trapped souls.  You can't really see the shimmer but the background was painted with cosmic shimmer inks.

 
The skull below is a freebie from the graphics fairy.  I got a red piece of paper and a blue one and sprayed different coloured inks and rubbed the papers in them to try and have an interesting background.

 
Brainz.  Yeah pretty shoddily painted but I am a lazy git!

 
This was painted on canvas and backed with an atc card.  Acrylics for Nosferatu (ins't he a honey).



I have actually done more atcs but am crap at photographing them so just gave up for another day.

I can't wait to see what bare boned projects you guys come up with.

Dang! You've been busy, Andrea! I think my fav is Linda the Grotesque. Her blank eyes lacking soul and her gaping mouth just make her the awesome undead creature she is! Fabulous ATCs!
