mask

I don't know if you remember: some time ago I asked what to do with this mask.

After some time of thinking I came up with this:

This is my entry into the HDH Challenge #171: Freaker's free for all - which is their way to say anything goes :-D
I painted the mask with black and gold acrylic paint, covered it with a crackle medium and overpainted it with white acrylic paint I added a bit of DI reinker antique linen to. Afterwards I gave it a wash with quinacridone gold (thanks Mark x :-)). After it was dry I stamped some cobwebs and little spiders. I added some sequins at the top and feathers behind the eyes. Thought the latter might look at least a bit spooky :-D 

Thanks for stopping by and having a look.
Hugs, Suzanne xxx

    Love how it turned out, the quin gold really helps with the aged look and made it much warmer.
    the cob web stamp looks cool too. x thanks for joining in over at hdh x

    Looks wonderful Suzanne! I have to order that Quin Gold, can't find it in the stores here. Really makes it all come together beautifully.
    So glad you stopped by the Dungeon at HDH today to show off your fantastically freaky mask!!
