Dictionary Challenge - Letter Z

So it's time again for a new letter over at The Craft Barn.  This time the letter is Z so not too many words to chose from!  To see all the details for the challenge (it's not too late to join in!) click HERE

I struggled with what word to chose but in the end I went with 'Zombie'





I masked the definition of the word zombie then I inked my pages using distress inks in pumice stone, crushed olive, weathered wood and black soot.  I stamped the wavy pattern from clarity in black versafine and then stamped the crackle by indigoblu in crushed olive.  My zombie image is a digi stamp from The Octopode Factory called Zombie Betty Beauty - she's quite a glamorous zombie!!  I printed her out normally and then flipped her in photoshop and printed her out again as I wanted them both facing each other.  I coloured them both in exactly the same with promarkers, cut them both out and glued to my pages.
To finish off I highlighted the definition with a black pen.

Thanks for stopping by, Claire x

  8. Love the background of your pages and that green crackle really makes the pages pop. Your zombie is very pretty - not the usual way to think of zombies though. Love it.
