Oh you can't believe how exciting it is just to have the car for the school runs and not have to walk every day!!  My fabby hubby has found someone to car share with to get to work and now I have the car, I have 3 extra hours to do the house work and craft during the day!!  Yipppeeeee!

Here is todays project

Marianne creatables and spellbinders and xcut dies to make the bases and a pro craft snowflake embossing folder.  

Gorgeous Lili of the valley christmas penguin stamp called 'snow cute', coloured with pro markers, added glitter and a tonic studios snowflake punch  with gems from my stash

The stamped letters are from a company I found at a craft show, but can't remember their name, I have stamped snowflakes in 2 shades off blue inside and covered the whole letter in glossy accents

Snowflake charm from my stash

DT card for Forever night Challenges 'Anything but a card'

Welcome to another weeks challenge at Forever Night challenges and our theme for challenge #48 is

'Anything but a card'

our sponsor is Strange skin

And here is my project

a Halloween wall decoration, I hope you like it!

I have used my Spellinders grave stone die cuts, inked them and stamped a spider webb around some edge pieces, I have then used smaller grave stones on top.

I have glued several gravestones together to make the base for the top of the decoration and then added the mummy in 2 sizes from Paper make up stamps The spider webb stamp and halloween sentiment stamp are from a penny black halloween stamp set

The 'BOO' sentiment has been created using a free font from Urban fonts

Close up of the bottom section created in the same way as the rest!

DT Project for Forever Night Challenges 'Altered'

Welcome to another Team A challenge at Forevenight challenges, we have no official sponsor this week so I have chosen to showcase a fabulous designer called sureya. you can find her here!

I have altered a 99p cork notice board from the works

Here is the finished product!

I have covered the board in black poster paint, then splashed red acrylic paint and silver calligraphy ink on top

The finished article in use!!

This image is called 'Hollow' he has been flipped over to look across the board, He has been coloured with pro markers and cut out then attatched to the board using silicon glue.

This image is called 'Helios' and has been treated in the same way as Hollow!

The sentiment was created on my computer, cut out with a die and then coloured in red, distressed around the edges and heat embossed using 3 layers of ultra thick embossing powder.

The chain and charm are from my stash!!

I really enjoyed making this and hope you like it :o)

DT post for Forever night challenges #31 Bling

Challenge time again for team A at Forever night challenges and this time the theme is

' Bling '

Our sponsor this week is 'Tickled pink stamps'

http://www.tickledpinkstamps.com.au/

Here is my very first Halloween Banner

I hope you like it :o)

Oh my word this was hard to photograph in one go so I have created a collage for you to view it at a glance :o)

I have used Xcut triangle dies to create the banners and to cut the bearly mine freebie halloween papers, then I punched holes in the top of the triangles for the ribbon to go through

First 3 triangle banners

all the letters were printed on my computer using a free font (can't remember what site i got it from tho' sorry :o(  ) I have then coloured the inside with promarkers and cut them out to create circular frames

Last 2 banners

This fabulous Vampire image is called Lestat and he is awesome to colour, I have again used promarkers, then cut him out and attached to an oval frame which has been liquid pearled for some Bling effect!

Close up of the image

Wow these weeks just fly by, it is time for team A to produce another challenge for you at Forever night challenge and the theme is 'Anything but a card'  Our sponsors this week are


BUGABOO

My project this week is a Halloween wall hanger

I have used 2 circular die cuts for each section. the black is a plain circle and the white(cutting out the digi's) is a lace circle form spellbinders, I have then inked the lace circles in red and black

The letters have been printed on my computer then coloured with pro markers and I have added 2 black bats to the bottom two sections that I found on the internet and printed out.

This cute little image is called Bobble head halloween ghost from Bugaboo digi stamps and I have coloured him in Promarkers.
