Happy Saturday Everyone,
Here is a little card I made as a commission for a friend's 30th Wedding Anniversary :-) They wanted something different and requested a Zombie/Gothic one, so I came up with this. I hope the recipients aren't freaked out !!! I think he will find it amusing but I'm not so sure about her. :-) Hahahahaha I am also entering it for the 'Oh, the Horror' Challenge over at Smeared & Smudged.
Images and paper are by Gillian Hutchinson at Cardmaking Downloads.
Silver card was the inside of a take-away box. :-)
Hello Peeps....being as it's getting near Halloween I have made a couple of scaries for you. For those of you who are a bit squeamish....LOOK AWAY !!!
IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR 31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN.... SCROLL DOWN .................
Hello Peeps,
Today is a bit of a biggie because I have 3 things to show you, to fit in with my various DT requirements.
The first is for Simply Create Challenge 54 - Shades of Black.
I have used backing papers from The Angel company and have torn one and edged with red chalk. I made a paper pleat from plain black paper and have added some feathers - kindly donated by my chickens - and a lovely black velvet flower I bought recently. Doily is from Poppy's Cabin. The main image is 'Vamp' from Strange Skin. I coloured her digitally and with Copics (bit of a luagh there 'cos I've only got 5 colours - but it sounds good doesn't it ? hee hee )
My second offering is for Delicious Doodles Challenge No. 4 'Halloween but NO Orange'.
The background is my own drawing in pen and ink and I have used 'Kitty Witch' from Delicious Doodles. I have coloured her digitally and then added some cut up feathers from my chickens (again !!! they will end up bald hahahaha) to decoupage onto her shoulder sections. I've added a spooky glow, but it's not exactly orange !! :-D
My 3rd is my project for Day 14 of 31 Days of Halloween at Smeared & Smudged. Since today is Friday I have used a Smeared Ink image............... PLEASE SCROLL DOWN for DAY 14.............
Good Morning Peeps,
This is made with the new image from Smeared Ink - 'Bluebird Rider'... isn't this just soooooo awesome ???!!! I coloured him with chalk pastel pencils. 'OMG' I hear you say.... she can colour manually, other than digitally ???!!! Yuss :-D ... Because this image is soooo fabulous, I decided not to put anything else with it so that you don't get distracted - just take a close look at this and you know you have to go and buy it !!!! I made a Z fold card using a FREE paper from Paper Pad Challenge - you have to check out this site :-D 'Nuff said .....
I hope you enjoy this and whizz over to Smeared Ink and buy it :-)
Oh, I nearly forgot to put Frankie in......Frankie is from Dude Time Doodles and I have coloured him digitally. I made a spooky house by converting a photo and used paper from Crafty Chaos - Halloween Howlers set. The Tag is a free download I coloured with Copics.
Me again,
IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR 31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN... PLEASE SCROLL DOWN :-)
Here are two more entries for the Progressive Freebie Digi Challenge over at CDAC.
My First is using a Simply Betty Image from 'The Potters' range. My backing papers are freebies from Free Craft Downloads. I have 'paper pieced' the witches' dress in pumpkin paper and also the kitty - using a photo of my own kitties fur :-) I coloured her digitally and have added some sparkle glue coming from her wand. It doesn't show up too well though :-(
I embossed a piece of plain pumpkin card with my Sizzix then added some silk leaves and a handmade flower.
My second one is using a fabulous little image from JenLee over at CDAC. She was a freebie to me for entering 3 projects into Round 4 of the Challenge. :-) Cool eh ??!!! I fell in love with it when she entered it into the digital drawing contest. Isn't she a lovely little witch ?!! I have coloured her digitally and used freebie papers again from Free Craft Downloads.
Back again later... byeeeeeeee
Phew - I've been working in the garden all day today as it was sunny and hot and have just come in to find that Scheduler didn't work on my Blog !!!! Grrrr
So, here I am with Day 13 of 31 Days of Halloween with Smeared & Smudged. The Blog Hop list is here--------------------->>>
My Offering today is a scrapbook page and I have 'vampired' Marilyn :-) Papers and elements are from the Digital Scrap Cafe
Here I am again at Day 12 and I feel very strange today.... sort of electric/zingy/nervousness like I have forgotten something really important or something bad is about to happen !! I know it's still a bit stormy here but I dunno !!!
Anyhow, I really hope you are following along with the Wicked Bloggers for this Halloween extravaganza by Smeared & Smudged. ?!! If you need the list of Bloggers, it's here--------------------------------------------->>>>>
I am also a Horrifying Hopper and I have been seeing some awesome creations out there... you simply MUST visit and take a look :-)
Well, today I have made something especially for Susan over at Pieces of Fate, because she has been plagued the last few days by the Fly from Hell !!!! So, I have made a spider who will leap over there and munch it up for her :-)
I photographed him and then put the photo of him onto a lovely Free backing paper I got last month, but unfortunately I can't remember where I got it from.... sorry !!! I will try to find out :-(
I have given him a drop shadow to make it like he's just danglin' there :-D He is made from a styrofoam ball with wire legs and is covered with paper mache. I have stuck on 8 assorted googly eyes and painted a big grin to make him less scary !! I have made one of these before about 2 years ago and he was bought by a couple who took him back to France. I must admit that the Greeks were really un-nerved by him LoL. My friend makes the most amazing little clay Boots and she has promised to make me some for him at some point in the future. :-D
Well, here we are at Day 11 of 31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN at Smeared & Smudged :-)
My project today is especially for Edgar, who is hosting Alex's Blog. I thought this might amuse him as a mini tribute :-)
I have used a paper from the 'Absolution Deferred' set by Crafty Chaos as my frame and the papers used for my 'Iris Folding' centrepiece were from Scrappincop. The Crow in the middle is by Anni Arts and is part of a card kit.
I hope you are enjoying looking at all the wonderful creations from the Wicked Bloggers. If you have forgotten who they are, the list is here---->>
Hello Lovely Peeps,
I have two projects for you today. The first one is my DT creation for this week's Challenge over at Smudgy Antics - 'Black Birds'.
I have made a double Z card and used a new image from Smeared Ink - Cemetery Gate - isn't it Fab ??!!
I coloured it digitally.
The main paper I used is from Paper Pad Challange, where you can get the most awesome papers FREE. The sentiment tags I made myself using quotes from POE.
Bat on a stick anyone ???!!!
This is my second little offering. I made him by cutting circles of black card and sticking them together and added some wings and a bat face from Smeared Ink's 'A Little Bit Batty' set. I'm sure he'd be really tasty with a little garlic sauce. :-D
I do hope you are enjoying our marathon 31 Days Hop. If you need the list to go see all the amazingly awesome creations the other Peeps are making it's here----------------------------------------------->>>
Do go and look because there are some prizes that can be won along the way :-D
