Paper Mache Nesting Coffin Set Before.
Day of the Dead Coffin (Medium - inside). I used the Echo Park Apothecary Collection to paper the outside and painted the inside with black Adirondack Paint.
Day of the Dead Coffin (Medium). The stamp that I used is from Smeared Ink Stamps, from the Calaveras Digital Stamp Set. I used Copics to color it in and used mists from Lindy's Stamp Gang to color the flowers: Hag Wart Orange, Tibetan Poppy Teal, and Yellow Rose of Texas, along with Scarlet Tattered Angles mist. I inked around the edges with Black Soot Distress Ink.
Wow (again) Love the bright colors with the black interior and distressing. Can't wait to see the next one.

I am loving what you're doing with these coffins! The bold colors on this one are awesome and the flowers with the added sprays are absolutely stunning! Great job!
ReplyDeleteI guess I didn't realize this would be a set, but I love the idea of nested coffins. Very little room for corpses. The second one is so bright and eye-popping! Looking forward to the third one.
