Anyway- there are prizes to be won as part of this hop as well. If you start at the beginning at Terra's Blog you can see how YOU can win. If you have already been there, then, hopefully, you are coming from Jane's blog and that you left her some love. Now, on to what Alex created for you today.
It doesn't look it, but this project took her a long time to create. Only because her mojo went on vacation and she had to push through. However, once she started cutting the skulls and just getting busy, a smile appeared on her face and there was no stopping her. In fact, she has been busy creating ever since.
Not the new creations, but since it IS skull appreciation day, I couldn't resist pulling out a couple of my personal favorites Alex has created. Here are a couple of oldies but goodies.
I know this is a bit off track and there is a LOT to see today, but I simply MUST share with you this product that Alex used on her card. It is called Goosebumps
Here is how it works, you spray it on something - in this case it was white paper, but it says it will work on all sorts of surfaces- and let it dry. It dries clear. She then grabbed some distress inks and sponges and added the color. This is how Alex created the background and the very cool effect on the 'head skull'. Here are some closeups so you can see it better.
Needless to say, Alex is now running around looking for more things to spray!!! Don't worry- after the 'glitter incident' I am staying out of her way!!!
Now- run along to the next stop on the hop, Judi's blog, and leave her some love while you are there. If you get lost along the way, I have posted the entire list at the end of this post!
Happy Skull Appreciation Day!
Edgar

Very nice - especially the goosebumps effects! Nice to meet Edgar too, :)
Fab card, love the tumbling pile of skulls. Thanks for sharing Goosebumps, I was wondering what you did to skull with wings it looks so cool. I'm glad to see you helping Alex out again Edgar :)
Edgar! It's so good to see you again! I've missed you! I'm glad Alex is letting you out of your cage a little more frequently these days. I guess she finally forgave you for that whole eye-pecking incident. Tell Alex her project is fabulous and I also enjoyed seeing her old time favorites! That girl with the wagon of bones is too cool! On her newest project, the texture from that spray is so awesome that i think I need to buy myself some! She did a great job with the colors and overall design. Fabulous!~
Fabulous projects!! Being a Monty Python fan~ I just LOVE the "bring out your dead" card!
I SOOOO need to get some Goosebumps!!
Your skulls are fabby and I gotta get some goosebumps
Great skull work! Never heard fo Goosebumps-spray that is. I will be on the lookout for some. I love the little girl with her wagon full-too cute.
I've never heard of that spray, but now I must have it! LOVE the background, and nothing says S.A.D. like a big o' pile of skulls :)
Oooh. Very cool. I love the main skull and the skull pile.
The card with the little girl pulling the wagonload of skulls is one of my favorites of your cards.
I've been really curious about the Goosebumps spray. It looks like it's something I need to add to my collection of stuff.
The glitter incident...I know it was traumatic, but you musn't blame Alex. That glitter just has a mind of it's own. Fabulous work showcasing Alex's projects, Edgar. They are all stunning as usual, and the new technique using the spray is definitely a keeper! Love the ghostly skulls!!!
that goosebumps stuff looks great, gonna have to try to find some

welcome back edgar! wonderful projects! thanks for the heads up on the goosebumps! love the skulls!
Love your card!, I too almost brought up links to old skully projects, but I figured it would add too much time.
Being a Monty python fan (especially of the In search of the Holy Grail variety) I have to say BWAAAHAHAHAHA!! to the bring out your dead card, too 2 cool n funny!
That spray looks very interesting.
That would have made a cool prize LOL
GREAT stuff, how did you make your sugar skull?
inky hugs,
Susan
I just got some Goosebumps spray...guess I need to pull it out! My fav is the "Bring out your Dead card"...pulling the cute and dark together!
Hey Edgar, glad you stayed out of the way of the mad sprayer! Alex is seriously talented tho, and the skulls must have taken a long time cut out! Loved that you pulled out a couple of old projects - the more skullys the better! And, Goosebumps looks like a must have product.
That spray looks fantastic. Great effect. Good to see some oldies but goodies getting another airing as well
that goosebumps stuff is way cool...it made your project even more awesome! Love it...great seeing you again Edgar :)
excellent! Love the goosebumps spray, you always have such cool stuff!! Glad to see Edgar again...great projects! The "Bring out your dead" card is one of my favorites!
