This weeks challenge on THE STAMPOTIQUE DESIGNERS challenge site is WINGS, WINGS, WINGS. I have been thinking what I could do for this and finally it hit me today so here is my entry!
This is worked on an old book cover. I stuck a book page onto the cover and then sprayed it with my new favourite thing.......an opaque proper white spray! It is a Memories Mist (available from The Stamp Attic, not on the web site but call if interested!) spray called Whipped Cream. Once dry I stamped the HEADS over it and added the MUSHROOM images and other bits and pieces.
OK, OK so I know that pumpkins don't have wings normally but what the heck!!
And yes that is a zip along the bottom!!
I just LOVE this heads stamp!
My pumpkins were made of Plaster of Paris poured into a chocolate mould. Once dry they were painted.
While I was working on this piece I also prepped a journal page ready for future use cos I know something you might not.........there are NEW STAMPOTIQUE IMAGEScoming soon..........they are now available for PRE_ORDER HERE IN THE UK

Love this Sue, it's so funny (in a totally good way!) Can't wait to see the new stamps, thanks for teasing us.
OMG you've done it again........fantastic work. I love your pumpkins with wings and I love how you made them too. That white spray is brilliant, very smooth with a sort of foggy edge, perfect for those 'heads'. Your attention to detail is wonderful and I love love love it!
ROFL brilliant Sue. only you could give a pumpkin wings!
Brilliant, love the mushrooms.
Fantastic work of art-love the pumpkin with wings and the heads stamped on the book pages. Welcome back and look forward to seeing more of your work!
What a great combination of heads and mushrooms, Sue. Your winged pumpkin is super. Fabulous artwork!
Just fantastic Sue, love the stamp too !!
What an inspiring piece, Sue.
I am impressed by all the unusual elements, the zip and using plaster of Paris, etc.
..you can put wings on anything...where would pumpkins go if they could fly?

So, that Memories Mist.. I need me some of that.. and I very nearly said a reeeeally stooopid thing you know... when you said you poured plaster of paris in a chocolate mould, I thought.. hey, wouldn't that melt.. but course it wouldn't.. cos the PofP is cold isn't it??? rofl... xx
What a fantastic, spooky piece. Love your pumpkins! Thanks for visiting my blog too - so glad you like my take on your cotton reel doll.
Love the card! I am taken with TEXT and most any FONT, so I like the idea very much of stamping onto a text page....very nicely done. Thanks, Sue!
This really is truly inspired! I'm going to have to try using some of my chocolate moulds like this! Great idea!
