31 Days of Halloween: Day 21 - Through the Keyhole

Welcome back to Lost Coast Portal to Creativity where Lost Coast Designs and Carmen's Veranda collide to bring you twice the inspiration and double the fun!
 
Hello Portal Peeps!  Gail here today with bootastic fun on Day 21 of our 31 Days of Halloween.   They say the veil is thinnest at Midnight on All Hallows Eve, but maybe as the day approaches other realities start to creep through.  In this case they are creeping through the keyhole!!!

Looks like she's screaming for her Flying Monkeys, but from the look of those bloody drips she might be coming to somewhere worse than that she is leaving!

I used some slightly grungy light grey card and stamped Carmen's Veranda Medium Keyhole with black archival.  Then I made a mask, cutting out the inside of the keyhole, so I could stamp Lost Coast Designs Crackle Background with Red Geranium archival ink.  I made a second mask, cutting outside of the keyhole, and stamped Lost Coast Designs Drips Background with Carnation archival ink.

I coloured the Keyhole with yellow and orange distress markers and gave the background a pale purple watercolour wash.  I used the mask again and stamped part of Carmen's Veranda Flying Monkey Background in the keyhole.  Then I stamped Carmen's Veranda Oz Witch, coloured with distress markers and fussy cut her.   I cut along the bottom of the keyhole and slipped the witch in so she looks like she's coming through from the other side.  Bwahahhahaa.
You must include real rubber or clear stamping and the theme for a chance to win.
