Haunted Circus for DominoArt Day 25

Abner the skeleton has been waiting for the Haunted Circus so long his ticket is showing some wear!!  He is soooo excited he can't keep his bones in line!  Just so he wouldn't forget he made a list of his top 3 rides/events at the circus/fair.....they are in order: 1. Haunted House  2.  Haunted House  3.  Haunted house.  I think he secretly likes the Haunted House myself!  He is all grins as he waits in line...just hope he doesn't wear all the ink off of his ticket before he get to the gate!  His ticket is a plastic domino stamped with a ticket from my stash and then colored orange with a watercolor marker.  I didn't gloss it or anything because I was going for a ticket that had been held like in a child's hand and sorta worn.  Polymer clay Abner courtesy of a tutorial by Candice Jedrowicz ( you are still my muse!) and some fun colors and embellies that I had in the stash box.  The Haunted Circus sign is also stamped with an alphabet set from the Michael's dollar bin.  
This is my first post for DominoArt and I am hoping not to disappoint Leigh desperately so I am entering two pendants today in the 31 Days of Halloween 6 hosted by Smeared and Smudged.  Hop over to my blog today to get a peek at them!  I really only knew about 2 domino art forms the pendants and the domino books.  Wow, how little I knew!!  Hope it all doesn't look too newbie:) but pretty sure it does! lol

Love this. The skeleton is so different. Looks perfect in this setting. The domino is so cool as the ticket

OMG, how fun and creative! LOVE the bright colors and that skellie ROCKS! Great using a domino as a ticket. Looks like it's been in his pocket (ooops, what pocket? LOL) a long time. xxD

Abner is one spooky looking skeleton. I bet he was fit with flesh.
You made him? I am so in awe.
Now I want to make hundreds of domino tickets!
What is the little plastic circle the skull face is mounted on?

The little circle was from a 97 cent self-stamping set at Walmart. They weren't really usable cause the ink just globbed out the detail so I had taken the tops off (that's what it is) so that they would dry out. I loved the color of the skull and decided to pop it on there! You know me...reuse, reuse,.....lol!

    My precious grandpuppy, Yoshi! He went through gastrointestinal surgery for an obstruction in August and almost didn't make it. It is now November and he is doing so well just can't eat hard food:( But I love mushing his food twice a day and feeding my beautiful baby boy:)
