Music Mayhem HDH 142 - He's Back (The Man Behind the Mask)


This week over at Haunted Design House Macabre Monday the challenge is to create a dark, Gothic, or Halloween-based art piece that uses a song or song title as your muse.  I did some research on the internet and found a song that totally inspired my creation.  I can't believe I had never heard this song, Alice Cooper's "He's Back (The Man Behind the Mask)."  I have always been a HUGE fan of The Friday the 13th films and Jason Voorhees is one of my all-time favorite slasher film killers!  That is why I was so surprised I had never heard this song, plus who doesn't love Alice Cooper!!!  If you are interested in listening to and watching the video you can check it out HERE on YouTube!

I used these items to create this card:
  • the mask image is from the internet
  • the machete is from the internet too but I didn't like the way it looked printed so I hand cut out and painted my own and applied a little Glossy Accents to the paint and handles
  • the background paper (inside and out) are from DCWV The Immortal Love stack
  • Martha Stewart edge punch
  • Design Studio
  • Happy Hauntings Cricut cartridge - Friday the 13th
  • Pooh Font Cricut cartridge - HE'S BACK!
  • (inside card) Studio G clear stamp - TREAD LIGHTLY - which I cut out and made to look like a camp sign
  • (inside card) white gel pen - for the letters of the sign
Here is the inside of the card:





Here is a close up of "the mask..." so that you can see some of the blood on the machetes:

I am entering this card in the following challenges:
I am so pleased with the way this card turned out...I think even Jason would be proud.  Thank you so much for stopping by and checking out my He's Back (The Man Behind the Mask) card.

  7. Friday the 13th is one of my favorite movies! I even love the remake (but really, how could you not with Jared Padalecki?) Love the gore on the blades - great piece.
