Book Club (but still sorta Halloween): The Shadow of the Wind
I've been having loads of fun lately coming up with themed designs for book club meetings, especially when selections have been so full of iconic and momentous images to pick from. This week's book club was one I got to pick (squeee!!), Carlos Ruiz Zafon's The Shadow of the Wind.
This book had plenty of moments that could be used to inspire some fun stamping. I started with the same Cirque Ultrasonic + newsprint applied with alcohol as with a previous book club mani, then stamped flames from KN-04 in red and yellow to be the burning pages of a book.
The smoky grey of Native War Paints Jessica that had worked so well with my last Halloween look was sitting right there pointing out how ideally it went with the theme, so accent nails were done in this color and stamped with key objects from the plot: a goat skull from BM-S245 for the devil, a white coffin from BM-402, a broken heart from UC6-03, and a key from UC6-02.
This book was a big hit with me and most of my co-readers. Hope your books all turn out as well!
