Halloween is creeping up on us!

I love creating for Halloween and I'm enjoying the Design Team's projects this month.  We have had projects of all types from the cute to the scary you to enjoy.  The scary ones are my favorites, but I've toned this one down a little bit from the Dracula canvas I made last time.  I've included a Snapguide tutorial in case you'd like to follow along.  I hope you like it. 

Check out How to Create a Halloween Canvas II by Robin Horasanian on Snapguide.

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.
