30 DAY SKETCHBOOK CHALLENGE - DAY 3

Good Afternoon Peeps,
This year I decided to join the 30 DAY SKETCHBOOK CHALLENGE 2020, which is organised and run by MAGENTA SKY PRINTMAKING and this is my DAY 3 piece. The theme today is " BUTTERFLIES & MOTHS ".  My butterfly was drawn and coloured twice, then I cut one out and only stuck the body part on so that the wings are 3D.  :-D

The female image is one of mine (IKEsART) called Muse 1 and is available in my Shop.

Thank you for stopping by and I welcome your comments. x0x0x0

MY DARK VALENTINE - DAY 4

Hello Peeps,

Well - that schmaltzy time has passed for another year.  YaY :-)
 I am delighted to be playing in this great Hop hosted by LEIGH and giving my darker side of Valentine's Day a bit of a shake up LoL

We have a fabulous 5 days of darker schtuff to see and I hope that some of you will come and play along with us :-D

For today's piece I have made a sort of shadow box from cardboard. I painted it with texture paste first and then used some sprayed paint and tulle, with a lovely sort of feathered cord stuff.... looks a bit like teeny tinsel. I was aiming for a sort of "rust" effect but it didn't quite come off right  :-D  Then I splattered it all with 'fake' blood. The winged hearts are stamps from SMEARED INK (no longer trading) with an image from LEIGH SB DESIGNS - Ode to Poe in the centre. I used just the face from Leigh's awesome Freebie - POE LOVE.
The silk orchid is from my local Greek 1 euro shop.

I also have these to show you. I made them previously and have used IKEsART images " Love is Blind " and " Muse 1 ".

 " Love is Blind " using scraps from the bits box and border punches, flowers and googly eyes. The image was coloured digitally. She was then matted and layered onto white card which I splattered with fake blood and border punched.

" Muse 1 " Tag using embossed card, jute, die cut hearts, lace and button from my local store. The image was coloured with Promarkers. The Font used is called 'Blood'.

I am working on showing 2 pieces for our final day tomorrow.

LINK UP FOR PINK

Today I have done a piece for LINK UP FOR PINK  Challenge No. 4 using a sketch by Melissa Craig of Tuesday Morning Sketches. 
I  made a tag. I have kept it simple - I rotated the sketch and used a punched border, a plain piece of dusky pink and coloured up my own image 'Muse 1' (available in my Shop) very simply, just adding a hint of pink to her lips and eyes. Then I added a twisted ribbon.
