February New Releases at SLSLines



Today I want to spotlight this super new image from SLSLines

This is Calavera Girl, Dia de los muertos

I really enjoyed colouring this with Promarkers and fineliners.


I cut her out with an arched window die and distressed around the edges
 with 'Spiced Marmalade'.
I added her to this little easel card...



 The easel and base were matted with brown paper from my stash of scraps.
I have a filing cabinet with folders for each colour...
The stand is a snippet of white card distressed with 'Spiced Marmalade' on dimensionals, 
stamped with a 'warm word' from SU.
The flowers - I took lots of white die cut flowers and allowed them to soak up spritzed distress inks - 'spiced marmalade' and 'wild honey'.
Once dry I layered them up and added some gems.


I will link this to Pile It On #101 - Homemade embellishments
Pixie's Crafty Workshop - snippet's playground 215
and Forever Dark Challenge #9

You will find other SLS New Release makes here

Do have a look at the gorgeous SLSLines images...
Look out for the next Challenge at SLSLines on February 20th.

Happy Crafting!

    creepy lady. Love all of the flowers.
    Easel cards are always fun.
    Great idea to use the flowers as the "foot"
    thanks for sharing.
