CASology Challenge Week # 169

I've had this card sitting on my desk, waiting to be posted for two days. After seeing what the new CASology cue word was going to be, I jumped at the chance to create something!


I LOVE zombies! Anything to do with zombies, especially movies and tv programmes. So I'm one of the very happy people that The Walking Dead is back on tv!! I actually came up with the idea for this card after watching The Walking Dead on Monday. I won't describe the scene that inspired me.....:



I got this stamp set by Hampton Arts 'Bloody Scene' a few weeks ago and was 'dying' to use it. As you can see its a pretty simple card. I stamped the hand in red pigment ink and then covered it in Glossy Accents to give it a wet look, which unfortunately didn't show in the photo. I then stamped the sentiment (from Create A Smile 'Bad Day'), which I used recently with my 'poo' card but thought it was a perfect sentiment. It could only be a bad day if your being chased by zombies!!!!

I have four other challenges I would like to enter:

Simon Says Stamp - Monday Challenge (The Monster Mash)

Simply Create Too Challenge # 96 (Halloween Colours)

AAA Cards Challenge # 50 


Fusion Card Challenge  (All Hallows Eve)


I have one other card to post which has a similar theme. If I make a lot I will call them my 'Splatter Collection'. American Horror Story is on tonight, so that might get me in the mood to make some more......

Take care
Shona

  8. What a clever card! I really love how it's simple, yet the details are right on! It was such a great idea to make the hand look wet. And even though I'm the type that would stick my head under a couch cushion rather than watch anything scary, I do appreciate how you were inspired by TV! This card was so much fun to read about and to see. Excellent work and thanks so much for sharing your creativity with us for this week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge!

  10. I'm glad you like zombies and scary movies, Shona, but not me. Your hand did grab my attention over at AAA Cards, though, and it's a good one for the CAS challenge.

  17. Walking Dead...ack! We watched the first couple of seasons and by then, my creep-o-meter was off the scale, so we stopped. Perhaps, one of these days, we'll catch up, but for now...tooooo scary for chicken ol' me! Your 'hand' is absolutely perfect for the zombie theme...creepy yet, in the way you've fashioned it, very tasteful! Eek-cellent, my friend!
    Hugs~c
