Watch your email for this week's image - CCC128 This is HALLOWEEN!

I have used the composite image from CCC128, coloured with markers,

 for this journal page:

I started by adding paint to my journal pages, adding crackling campfire Distress Oxide through stencils, adding stamps in Archival, adding more paint through stencils, adding ribbon and then splatters of white...

Next I added the image with crackling campfire Distress around the torn edges.

Finally I added some Posca pen in orange.

I will be sharing today's Halloween make to Leigh's linky for Day 31 -

I may get one more post in...

Crafty Hazelnut's Weekly Christmas Challenge #514 - Add something beginning with H

  

a new Christmas Challenge every Saturday!

Today Crafty Hazelnut brings a new weekly Christmas Challenge

with the theme 'Something beginning with H'.

Do pop over and see the fabulous inspiration from my teamies!

If you enter you could win a prize...

Every week a prize is given to a randomly chosen winner - this is the prize for this week:

Couture Creations

Stamping, embossing & die cutting set

Butterfly notes

I have added 'Holly' to my card.

Yesterday I joined a crafty Zoom meeting with friends from the UK. Ina led us in a little workshop to make this card - it would be a brilliant design if you have some kids who want to play...

A 4in circle was divided up into sections and each part was covered with doodles, and then coloured. This was then added to a white card blank matted with a layer of embossed card.

A little black card was added for the top of the ornament, a scrap of ribbon and a bow.

Finally I added the sentiment, stamped on white and placed on green card.

I hope you will join the

CHNC Challenge 514

So let's celebrate Halloween!!

And we are almost there!!

I am just sharing a couple more pages of my Haunted Houses poem book.

This illustrates the poem Haunted Houses by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.

So far you have seen these pages:

Today I have these to share:

I have used Smeared Ink stamps  stamped directly onto the marbled backgrounds. On the left I added some more images stamped on a yellow paper and some Oddball skulls. I finished this page with a bit of penwork. On both pages the verses were trimmed and then had black soot Distress Ink around the edges. On the right hand side I added a Dyan Reaveley edge stamp and two more ghosts. 

I will add these pages to Leigh's Linky!

I will also add them to Lost Coast Portal to Creativity 31 DOH

And I am also very pleased to be participating in the Countdown to Halloween Blog Hop

Finally I will just add a photo of my makes so far... The box was intended as a Halloween scene but I am a little behind with that!

My husband made the candlestick for me. I want to get a black candle for it...

Happy Hopping!

 

Cat Lovers Hop Day 5

   

This is my fifth and final make for the Cat Lovers Hop...

 I am joining in with the 2020 Cat Lovers Hop

Do pop over and find all the details on Janis' Her Peaceful Garden blog

Anyway like last year, I thought I would share another vintage Halloween

postcard from Vintage Image Craft

If you have visited my blog before, you may know that I like to make never ending cards.

I decided to make one for this post!

These two pictures show the first and last faces:

I have uses Dyan Reavely edge stamps, and cat stamps that were a magazine freebie. I used kraft card to make the base and matted this with papers from Crafterschoice Bohemia Botanica.

I added most of the cat stamps on top of small die cuts in Kraft and white card.

This is a little video of how it unfolds:

I will add this card to the Cat Lovers Hop

Happy Hopping!

=^-^=

I will also add it to Lost Coast Portal to Creativity Furry Friends

Color Dare Challenge #418

This is another make for the

Color My Heart Color Dare Challenge DT

Do pop over to the Color Dare Challenge and take a look at my teamies' makes!

This is today's colour scheme

I have used the top row plus black and white.

This started out as a white card blank matted with the black then a paper from Stampin Up.

I added the Dyan Reaveley image, flower  and edge stamps with a little added colour from markers. I then cut out the sentiment words and added them randomly down the side.

This is based on cards that I made during the September virtual retreat that I attended.

Hope you will join the Color Dare Challenge...

I will also add this card to Lost Coast Portal to Creativity Furry Friends

Happy Crafting!

So let's celebrate Halloween!! And it is almost the witching hour!!

Do join in - with even just one post!

I am going to start by sharing a vintage postcard from Vintage Image Craft...

Yesterday I put my Halloween bunting up - you might remember it from previous years!

Today I started by doing an online Collage workshop with Peninsular Papercraft Boutique.

One of the techniques was to use juxtaposition of collage pieces.

I made this which I think is quite spooky.

~~~~~~~~~

Later on I made a Halloween wreath to go on the front door screen.

It is basically a polystyrene ring wrapped with Halloween fabric (cut into strips and pinned).

I then added ribbon and various embellishments (mainly old Halloween earrings!).

I will add this to Leigh's Linky!

I am also very pleased to be participating in the Countdown to Halloween Blog Hop
