Hand Stitched Voodoo Doll!

October 3rd 2013

A fun challenge for this week at Wicked Wednesday - Voodoo Dolls/Stitching and a fabulous sponsor - Smeared Ink who have provided the "cute" Voodoo Doll image for my creation! I've added lots of stitching to my voodoo doll as well as some muslin, measuring ruler, buttons and some little scissors!! What a fun challenge this is and we would love to see your ATC creations for this challenge!!

Black, Purple, Orange & Lime Green Colours for Halloween

October 2nd 2013

I'm happy to be a guest designer again this month at Bombshell Stamps and my challenge for this month is to use the colours in the title of the post so get creating and link up to the Bombshell Blog!!!

I've used "Bombshell Angel" Rubber Stamp with a great "digi" Halloween outfit and I've decorated my October Journal pages for The Kathryn Wheel challenge (I'm still 2 months behind as I haven't done August & September yet LOL!!)

I've used crackle paint on my pages and you can see underneath I used lime green & black and purple over the top of the crackle - I sponged some orange paint around the edges, punched little stars and numbered them for the days of the week and die cut "october"!

Hope you can join my challenge at Bombshell for this month!!

BOO!!!

Red & Black Halloween

September 30th 2013

We are seeing a few Halloween creations around the blog world getting ready for next month so I am sharing my black & red cards using new release products from Gecko Galz in preparation for the haunting season!!!

 

 

Both cards use new release digital stamp images from the "Spellbound Stamps Set" and papers from the "Vampire's Ball" digital paper set. I always love the look of black & red and I love lots of layers so I used several of the papers, distressed the edges, mounted them on black card and piled them on top of each other LOL!!

 

There are lots of collage sheets this month with Halloween themed images so why not drop by the store and grab yourself some and get creating!!!



Lady Bird for Luck!

More Autumn/Fall  inspiration using another new image from Just Some Lines - I love this cute little ladybird sitting under the mushroom!

Make sure you check out the Just Some Lines Blog for more creations from the DT!

Wish Upon a Star...

September 28th 2013

Time for my reminder post for our "Retro/Vintage" theme at the Wicked Wednesday ATC Challenge Blog. For this ATC I used this great image by Angie Delarie "Felicity" - i just love this gorgeous gal with her vintage style clothing. I used similar papers from Gecko Galz as my first Retro/Vintage ATC which I posted on Wednesday.

And like my ATC from Wednesday I couldn't resist making this into a card as well!

Lizzy and her Dragons

September 26th 2013

Sharing a card made with another new image from Maigan Lynn available at the Queen Kat Designs Store - "Lizzy" - I always love the looooong eyelashes Maigan adds to her her images!

Image was printed on watercolour paper, coloured with watercolour pencils then washed over with a wet paint brush. I covered the entire image with Ranger Clear Crackle Medium and sponged some distress ink over it. I printed one of the little dragon a bit larger to add some dimension to the card along with some mesh, muslin & gorgeous orange glitter behind the work "Celebrate"!
