October ATC - The Raven

I didn't realize how fuzzy the photo was until I went to edit it. :(

I figured that my Norton Anthology of Poetry would have the Raven in it and I could photo copy it for my ATC, but not so much. So I googled it, and used the silhouette software to type 2 of the stanzas. In the silhouette program, I created a 2.5 x 3.5 rectangle to type in so I could make sure it would fit on the ATC. I printed it on regular printer paper and mounted it on a piece of comic book board with matte mod podge.

Since it was so white, I added some Hickory Smoke Distress Ink. I stamped the pumpkin with Colorbox pigment ink of the body and Marvy marker for the stem. The face is 2 separate stamps. They are by Fiskar. Then I added the crow on the pumpkin. It needed something on the other side, so I added the flying crow. Those stamps are by inkadinkado. And I finished it with some black stickles.

Very cool that you have the actual text from The Raven! Love the stickles, I thought it was a stamped border at first glance.

This turned out so awesome! I love the Poe, and how you built your ATC around it. Love the sparkle on the sides of it!

Doing your background like that was genius. Especially picking the stansas you wanted. This turned out wonderfully. TFS

Cool combination of the scary and the fun. The black Stickles adds the perfect finishing touch. TFS. Daria
