31 Days of Halloween - Day 9 - Never More...

Smeared & Smudged
31 Days of Halloween
Day #9

Today I decided to make something a little more dimensional to go with my "BOO" project that I shared on the 1st....

I thought it would be fun to "mount" a critter and what's more Halloween than a Raven!!  I think he looks pretty cool there...



The wood plaque is one I picked up at the same estate sale that I got the other frames...
I painted then distressed the wood then I just chopped a Styrofoam raven in two.  I glued him to the plaque and then stamped the sentiment on some parchment paper.  The quote was then matted on gold metallic cardstock and affixed to the plaque.
