Step by Step “Zombies Up in Arms!”

This one looks really detailed but stencils make it super quick! First I laid down a base with a sponge and a Tiger cake for a sunset background. Next, I used an Ooh! zombie arm stencil and mini kabuki brush to add the arms! The branches are actually done with a Christmas stencil that we sell. Then, using a round brush loaded with black, I added a little hanging bat in a tree (totally optional), some scraggly looking grass, and used a dry Cameleon blending brush to drag it down and fade into the forehead. The blood splatters I did using just a portion of a BAM 1415 splatter skull stencil, and then topped that off with some liquid bling!

I’m SOOOO upset right now that my most FAVORITE mini kabuki stencil brush has been discontinued by the manufacturer…I am working on sourcing some new ones and hope to have them up on the site SOON! Follow our Facebook page for updates! They are an absolute game changer for me when it comes to stencils…stay tuned on that!
