Halloween Pumpkin Carving

For Halloween it's the family tradition to carve a pumpkin every year. I try to make a different design every year. This year I went for scary face with wax blood dripped on the hollowed inside and dripped on the mouth. It looked like something out of a horror film, I think I have succeeded in making my pumpkin look terrifying.

Christmas Preparation


I have started making some Christmas tags. I used a small rubber and using a scalpel I decided to cut out a few designs on the rubber stamp. The stamps I made were an angel, Christmas tree and a penguin. I think the penguin was very cute. I then tested them with some acrylic paint and applied paint to the stamp with a paint brush. I loved the texture the brush created, I will be using this on the final prints for the Christmas prints. I have recently bought air drying clay so I will be making my own decorations and jewelry, which I am very excited about.
