HYCCT1330 Sugar Skull
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: UnderstandBlue

 Today's HYCCT challenge is by my sweet friend Holly, and her challenge is to SPARKLE!! I spent many hours creating this and I know some people will think it's spooky, but I love it! Here in Texas, sugar skulls are a beloved tradition during October, leading up to Dia de los Muertos. Bakeries make real sugar skulls out of real sugar, but they are also painted, stenciled, papier mached onto everything - we just love them. It's just a Tejas thing

I used a stencil I got in Santa Fe from The Crafter's Workshop and sponged Whisper White Craft ink through it to help me see what I was doing. Colored on top of it with pencils on the outside, and then filled in the skull part with glitter. It's so sparkly and fun in real life!

TFL!

Are you playing along with us? If not, you're missing out on the chance to lift the spirits of women battling breast cancer at MD Anderson, and also on more than $5000 in prizes from your favorite crafty companies.

So what are you waiting for? Get to stamping!

Wonderfully crafted, Lydia! At first glance, b4 reading your description, I thought it was a Day of the Dad skull. Whoever gets this card will LOVE it, I'm sure.

Soo cool Lydia, but I think you should take a pic of you with that green face and put it on the bag...Happy Halloween!
