Welcome to October.. My goodness the year is going too fast. I am not ready for cold weather and all that it bring..  It is a perfect time for this free Friday image though.. It's Halloween House Silhouette .. I only colored the windows and a little ground base.. oh an a little inking around the edges but it's hard to see.  At least on my computer.. I used some letters from Lil inker and colored with my copics the orange color and used a negative part of a die for the green.. This card is simple

Tuesday September 29, 2015

 

Oh this is Tuesday so that means it's New Release day at Bugaboo / Catch the bug

 

 

 

 

The new release is Chibi Kitty.. cute with the butterfly on his nose.. I kept this one easy I did not want to make the image too small so it took up more of the card front that I thought it would.. so just used the basic gray dp behind and recollection brown behind it.. I just used my copic and went around the edge of the kitty image .. it looks like a layer but it's not..I rounded the corners and added a butterfly die from stampin up..

Ghoulies and gosties and long leggety beaties / Free Friday Catch the bug

Friday September 25, 2015

 

OK where did September go???? I cant believe we are getting to the end of the month already..

 

Any how today is Friday and so it's Free Friday and we have Chubby ghost sucker image..at Catch the bug

 

 

Here is the little chubby ghost.. I was going to cut him out but having hand issues so it's really hard using scissors. I think it would of been presented better if I had and more of the spider web would of shown. Well anyhow I like the card and the spider web is a die from Taylored Expressions along with the spiders. I cut them out of vellum and used copics to color the back of the spider and it gives a great texture look. The sentiment is from the dcwv paper pad. I colored the image with copics.

Morgan's Art World #8 - ribbons

Friday September 25, 2015

 

Another challenge at Morgan's Art World #8 challenge.. Use RIBBONS

 

 

The image I am using is Ballerina 4 from the shop

 I wanted to use the Ballerina 4 image and thought it would work well with the ribbons challenge. I was planning on using a sentiment but once I got done I did not want to include one so left it plain. Figure what ever you wrote in the inside would say enough.  I used two ribbons and taped to the back side then added the other ribbon around both and tied it then secured it with a brad. I just kept this really simple.   I hope I have inspired you to play along over at Morgan's Art World for the RIBBONS challenge.
