Zombie town blog Hop for the scrapbook stamp society

Good morning everyone - it feels good to be back - I've had 36 hours with no internet - and it felt as though my right arm had been severed!!!Still - I think the kids appreciated seeing more of mummy!!!!

Today - on the facebook pages of the scrapbook stamp society and addicted to stamps - there is a bloghop called Zombie Town - these wonderful digis all depict zombies! If that's the sort of thing that floats your boat why not check it out here http://www.facebook.com/ScrapbookStampSociety and herehttp://www.facebook.com/ScrapbookStampSociety#!/groups/205539419562521/.

My card was going to be a canvas - but I couldn't get hold of one in time - so I used sticky back canvas paper and distress stains plus some spritzers to create the background. Zombie Zodi and her rabbit can be found here - I've printed her out and coloured her with promarkers then affixed her to the canvas. Finally I've added text and frayed the canvas edges before sticking it to black card.


I would like to enter this card for the following challenges:

simonsaysstampandshow: Favourite technique - playing with distress stains is definitely a big fun thing for me at present!
fatpageswithattitude: Show some texture/anything goes

so why not check it out over on facebook and see what the other ladies have come up with!

Big Hugs for a happy Friday

Rachel xx
