A Little Bit Eerie

It's "my week" to make a little something for the Haunted Design House challenge. Due to being a bit under the weather it was a tad late. Better late than never?
I made a mixed media canvas. Looking at the works of those mega-multi talented teamies of mine, Donna and Glo, we all read the white on white memo.
I went with an icy cold theme using Rick St Dennis' Jack Frost image.
Coloured with promarkers to begin with.

Then torn out of it's card surroundings and given a liberal coating of Rock Candy Crackle glaze.
While that was drying I added bits of tulle, lace and muslin to a white gesso covered canvas with gel medium.
A few bits of silver wire added under and over the image. Then more torn tulle - as if the image is hiding behind a curtain. Finally a border of ice in the form of some bling.




I hope you come join us with your interpretation of "Eerie Inspiration" and let us feast ourselves on your eye candy.

I'd like to enter this canvas into the challenge at
A Step in the Dark - Dark Fantasy/Anything Goes
Everybody Art - Monochrome
Just Inspirational - Anything but a card
