Simply Steampunk Hallowe'en

Today I have the honor of being a part of the new release

over at Simply Steampunk/Simply Betty Stamps.

I was asked to guest DT for Betty's new line of

Hallowe'en Steampunk images, drawn by the uber talented,

Abigail Larson.

I was given Rio Gone Batty to work with.

Isn't she gorgeous?!

I felt she deserved a place in my Hallowe'en themed

paper bag scrapbook.  

I added Rio to a scientific diagram of a bat using Gimp.

Then I colored her up in my favorite color scheme, using 

Copics in violet, yellow red, and yellow greens. Oh, and blue violet

for her skin. I added some distress inks on the bat background and 

some distressing with a sanding block and scissors. 

I added one of my hoarded (it's okay, I know I'm a hoarder) Hallowe'en stickers.

I even went so far as to cut out the samples on the packaging for even more

hoardable embellishments. It's a sickness.... 

Lastly, I layered some MS punched fence and other various Halloweenie

type embellishments on top for a nice complete scene. 

Thanks for stopping by!

Keep it creepy!!

And remember: 

Only 68 more days until Hallowe'en!!!
