It's The Witching Hour

It's October, my friends - cooler weather, caramel apples, falling leaves, and Halloween! It's also The Witching Hour at Gecko Galz so this calls for some wicked-cool inspiration for their challenge!

This little masquerader started as a Sandra Evertson Artists' Model. I painted her black and added some hot glue drips and aged brass wax. She's wearing a mask I made from the Haunted Ephemera Digital Collage Set. I added some lacquer to the eyes and nose for some realism.

I topped her off with a top hat that's housing a couple friends from the same collage set. She's got a cape made from the This Is Halloween Mini Paper Pack. On the back, I added lacquer across the back for some depth. The bottom is wrapped in Sari silk ribbon in orange.

I'm entering this masquerader at A Inky Mess and the Dream In Darkness Blog as well!

And I have another entry in my art journal - it's almost full and I can't wait to show you the whole thing! Until then, let's take a peek at a Halloween spread I did.

I love these printables from Gecko Galz!  Frightfully Delightful and Vintage Portraits really compliment each other for a creepy scene.

So now it's your turn! What will you create for our challenge? Stop by the blog for more inspiration and to dazzle us with your creation!
