Mr. Bones

 Hello! I created a 3D project for today's post. I used the I Brake for Stamps Mr. Bones rubber stamp. Isn't he cute? 

I stamped the image on white cardstock using a dye ink. Use a dye ink that will work well with the coloring medium that you are planning to use. 

A stamp positioner was very useful to me in stamping this image since this image is very detailed. The stamp positioner allowed me to re-stamp the image since I missed some spots in stamping. 

This rubber stamp is available mounted or unmounted. To use the unmounted stamp, adhere the unmounted stamp to the door of the stamp positioner, as you can see on the photo above. I used a glue stick to do this which worked really well. The stamp held on to the door during the stamping and re-stamping. To clean the glue off from the back of the stamp and the stamp positioner door, I just used a wet rag.

I used different coloring mediums to color Mr. Bones. I used color pencils for the base layer. A sharp color pencil was very useful in coloring those tiny areas. I then used an alcohol marker which worked well in coloring the hat since this is the largest part of the image. I also used gel pens for accents, coloring over some of the areas colored with color pencils. 

I fussy cut the image leaving a white border around it. I used a craft knife to cut the areas in between Mr.  Bones' arms and body.

I added dimensional glue to some areas and also colored some parts with a shimmer pen.

I adhered Mr. Bones to a 3D black coffin cut with an electric die cutting machine. I added some matting to the front of the coffin for some extra accent. 

This 3D coffin can be used as a decor. I forgot to mention that this coffin can be opened to reveal a hidden message or even a candy bar measuring up to ~1/2". 

I hope you like today's project.
