Halloween Domino Coaster

Hi everyone!

Today I am showing my creation that I have entered into DominoArt's 31 Days of Halloween with Smeared and Smudged for Day 2!
If you would like to join in or maybe just pop-on over to take a peek, click on the link below!

Supplies used:

Regular white dominos
Mini travel dominos
Big and Juicy ink pad, Mountain Meadow
Stamps by Inkadinkado
Momento Ink, black
Embossing Powder, clear
PVC white glue
Post-it note
-----------

1. Using the regular dominos I glued together with the PVC glue to create the top of the coaster. I glued mini travel dominos to the bottom of the coaster to create a stand.

2.  Once the glue has dried and dominos are secure I inked over them with the Big and Juicy Mountain Meadow, but firstly I placed a moon onto the doms using a post-it note to which I cut-out the circle with a punch.

3.  I inked-up the stamps using Momento black and applied to the dominos, then removed the post-it circle and just applied a little of the ink.

4.  While the ink is wet I covered the dominos with clear embossing powder and then heat set using heat tool.
