GC121: Chestnut Challenge - Horror Stories .

For the month of October, our challenge is “Edgar Allan Poe”.
Horror Stories is our Chestnut Theme. 
The first thing that came to mind was,
“The Raven” Click here
Then “The Tell - Tale Heart    click here
This should get those juices flowing so come and join us…
I used a fun TQ from Hero Arts and Curled Corners from Techniques Junkies February 2011 Newsletter. My only stamp is from Memory Box.
Black and White Embossing Powders along with
distress inks adds to the mood of this card.
For the fake blood, It was Hot Glue and “Atyou Spica Markers”.
My graphic’s were free downloads from the inter net.
Hope you will join us.
Have a wonderful Indian Summer week-end. Hugs Vada

    Love the curled corners on the tattered old page with the embossed raven and of course the fake blood globs! Beautiful ink distressing and the graphic images spooky fun! BTW, quite a few bloggers are having commenting problems! Can't believe it took you three attempts to comment! Have a great evening! Hugs!

    Oh, Vada... I love your spooky piece! That base text piece with the curled edges is a great foundation for the creepy parts above. Love it!
