SLS Lines Christmas New Release Day

If you are looking for my 31 DOH Day #22 post - CLICK HERE!

Today is new release day over at SLS Lines and the images coming into the store today are for Christmas! I have had the pleasure of working with the Christmas Dancing Elf and have coloured her with Promarkers and mounted her on red pearlescent paper. The background papers are from Craftwork Cards Mistletoe 6x6 pad and I've used a matching sentiment from their Mini Mania die cut pad. I have then finished the card with red and green gold gilded candi - very elegant!

Thanks for looking!

31 DOH Day #22 and A Step in the Dark News

Welcome to Day #22 of 31 Days of Halloween! I hope are enjoying the hop! You can find the blog roll in my side bar. Your first stop on the hop is Terra, you should have come to me from Lyneen, and your next stop is Rebecca. Remember to comment on all the blogs on the hop for a chance to win at the end of the month and keep in mind the Scavenger Hunt for daily prizes!

Today would be the start of a new challenge at A Step in the Dark sponsored by Ike's Art and Smeared Ink, however, with life being as it is, the decision has been made by the management to temporarily close the challenge, hopefully we will return in the new year.

For my project today, I have used the pre-coloured 'Face-Off' image from Ike's Art for this first card. My DP is from Graphic 45 Steampunk Spells and An Eerie Tale. I have used the Martha Stewart Drippy Goo punch for the top and bottom borders and the viewfinder is a file by Sarah Hurley at the Silhouette Store. I have finished with a sentiment from Create with TLC and some candi.

I have made a quick card today on a 5x5 black card base. The papers are from Jillibean Soup 'Witches Brew' paper pad. The image with sentiment are from Create with TLC and I have coloured this just using distress inks and a blending tool. I've mounted the count on orange pearlescent paper to help define him against what I think look like eyeballs on the paper! The bat rosette is Martha Stewart and I've finished with green Card Candi from Craftwork Cards.

The East Wind Facebook Contest 'Animals'

Good morning! Scroll down for my 31 Days of Halloween Day #20 post, and Day #21 will be here in a few hours! Today sees the start of a new Contest at The East Wind Facebook Group. The theme from now till the 17th of November is 'Animals'. We would love to see your TEW creations using animals - you know Lucy Loo loves her kitty and there are plenty other images in the Etsy shop - links at the bottom of this post.

I have used my promarkers to colour this cute little piggy image in a very basic way - I find this like an image for a child and cartoon like so wanted to reflect that in my colouring. I have kept the card basic too - DP are from Echo Park 'Happy Camper' papers and the sentiment is Craftwork Cards. I've used a Spellbinders die for the mat and lots of olive green distress ink.

31 DOH Day #20 with SCACD

Welcome to Day #20 of 31 Days of Halloween! I hope you are enjoying the festivities! Thank you for all the wonderful comments! You can find the blog roll in my side bar. Your first stop on the hop is Terra, you should have come to me from Lyneen, and your next stop is Rebecca. Remember to comment on all the blogs on the hop for a chance to win at the end of the month and keep in mind the Scavenger Hunt for daily prizes!

Earlier in the month I was the lucky winner of some images from SCACD and I previously used the 'Skull Cupcake' on a fat page on Day #16. Today I am sharing a card made with another of their images - the Gothie Owl. He is so cute, I had to have him! I've coloured him in Promarkers, fussy cut him and mounted him on black card. The DP is from Webster's Pages and the web frame was cut on the cameo. The sparkly sentiment and spiders are from K&CO I believe.

Thanks for looking!

So I have coloured 'Bat Queen Betty' with Promarkers in the colour scheme for the latest 13 Days of Halloween challenge at Simply Betty Stamps Blog! For challenge #7 we have to use 'Traditional Halloween Colours' so Orange, Green, Purple and Black. I have mounted her on black card, the DP is Graphic 45 An Eerie Tale and the rosette is Martha Stewart. This is a 7x7" card - a new one for me, I normally work in 6x6!
