Here I am for my final Wednesday

 with Gina's Designs! 

 Have you enjoyed these projects I have shared these last few Wednesdays?then go have a look at Gina's store!I just have to tell you,this guest spot has been a blast for me and I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Gina's products!

Gina, thanks so much for asking me along!

BOO! Haunted House!!

For my project I used the

 Haunted House Silhouette 2 Set.

 

 To begin,I covered the house with White gesso,Cadium Orange Hue & Green Gold,applied with a palette knife.This gave various levels of paint,and yummy colors that would show through the crackle when the top coat,which was a mixture of Dioxazine Purple& Quinacridone Violet,was added.

  

 Here I added two different sized webs from the Spiderweb Shape Set.
The larger web was painted Hansa Yellow with a top coat of Chartreuse Green. This green was also used to line the doors and windows,as well as the shutters.
The smaller web,the bat,as well as the cat were all given of Titanium White,Quinacridone Violet,Dioxazine Purple&Interference Violet. 

 To distinguish the roof line I used a the Burlap stencil with DecoArt Black modeling paste to create the look of roof shingles.
It's all about the textures with baby!

 Skellies and ghostly children graphics were  then added.
The moon has yummy layers of White Gesso,Primary Yellow,Weathered Wood for crackled texture,Yellow Hansa with a wee bit of Interference Gold. 

 The remaining piece of my Wrought Iron Set  was cut in half to become the gates for the sides of the house.These gates also help to stabilize the house upright as I chose not to use the stands that were included in the kit.

For the gates,I started with a layer of Black gesso. After that, layers and layers of color,Burnt Umber,Burnt Sienna,Cobalt Teal Hue,Cobalt Turquoise Hue,Quinacridone Violet,Dioxazine Purple,Interference Violet and Quinacridone Gold-Phew!!Gotta love the color!
 Oh yes,Verdigris Embossing Powder as well,was added for texture.

And definitely not your typical rusty gate colors-Tristan, I was thinking of you here!

 The tree, which came from the

 Winter Shape Set  was also layered with colors of Primary Yellow&Yellow Ocher,then a thick coat of Weathered Wood for the crackling. Burnt Umber&Burnt Sienna made up the top layers with a highlight of Hansa Yellow.

My pumpkins were painted in Cadium Orange Hue with Stickles Crushed Pineapple for the faces as well as the outline of the trees.

My purple cat got his own dose of Stickles with a little bit of Firefly !

Firefly was also used on the doors,windows,Ghost face and BOO.

 The chipboard pieces, Ghost,Cat,BOO, and Bat all came from the Spooky Shape Set  .
And to help complete my Haunted House, I used some cheesecloth which I dunked in my paint brush water(yuk) then dried and draped it!

I hope you have enjoyed my Boo house and that I have inspired you to go shopping over to Gina's and create some fun of your own!

As always my friends, thank you for your visits and comments!
