This Halloween Jester is Ready for the Costume Party!

Welcome to Altered Pages and I hope you are enjoying your Sunday! Susan here bringing you a charm I created using an adorable Altered Pages Halloween Digital Collage Sheet, fuzzy fibers, shrink plastic and a shimmery bead to top it off. Now I have a festive necklace to wear for Halloween.


I started out with this lovely digital collage image "Jester Halloween". The images from AlteredPages.com are so fun and diverse - and their uses are endless. This cutie has been begging me for creative attention and love - so I decided to make a charm for a necklace. I printed out this image onto my shrink plastic following directions and punched holes around. Then I let the magic happen in my toaster oven. I edged with silver foil tape and laced with sparkly orange and black fibers. I topped off with a large sparkly orange bead.


Now I have an adorable necklace with vintage flair ready to wear for Halloween.
The size of my shrunken charm is about 3 1/2" tall by 2 1/4" wide.

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you are inspired to create something. Please visit the Altered Pages website for Collage Sheets, Ephemera, Sakura 3D Crystal Lacquer, Rubber Stamps, blank items ready to alter, Project kits and more!

 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.
