SUNSET RAINBOWS XL TAG

Hi all just a quickie,
I'm here with my first project for the month over at the
artistic stamper creative team blog
It's an XL TAG (this is my first of many)
I am loving this size 10.5 x 21.5cm's
so much more surface to work on, LOL

so here it is,

I went with an autumn theme

(rather appropriate for the time of year I thought, te he hee)

I made up the poem myself, (one of my better ones) LOL

if you would like a step by step then head over to the

artistic stamper creative team blog

Hope you like it!

GIGGLE FAIRY PAGE

Hi all,
I'm here today to shear a page I made for the
artistic stamper creative team blog
monthly challenge,
the theme this time is BACKGROUNDS
if you would like to join in click the link to read all about how,

I started by putting acrylic paint (hot pink & orange)

 down onto the page with a baby wipe,

then I added the black dots,

with a piece of logo & black acrylic paint,

next I added white rings with,

an old bottle lid & white acrylic paint,

now for the stamps,

(all 3 are  from the artistic stamper)

I stamped the Music background with

Worn lipstick Distress ink, all over,

& then part stamped the  Sequin waste open,

with Rusty hinge Distress Ink,

to random parts of the page,

& lastly the Harlequin background

with Crimson Archival ink as shown.

Here's a few close ups,

 

I added a piece of torn book page for my fairy to stand on,

coloured with a copic marker,

collaged her up from sheets bought from

Lisa's altered art.com

& stuck her down along with the words,

finally I stamped a flower off the page from the flower power set

also from the artistic stamper.

& coloured it in with a black pen,

then doodled with a white gel pen over the top.

I love the contrast on this page,

what do you think!

If you fancy entering the challenge

that's me for today!

JOURNAL NOVEMBER PAGES

Hi all,
I'm here today to show off my November pages,
But first I would like to tell you,
 I am still unable to comment on other peoples work
when I try to leave comment it keeps disappearing,
(blogger isn't even throwing me to the brown sign in page)
CAN ANYONE HELP, I am so frustrated AHHHH!!!!!!

My finished OCTOBER page will appear as if by magic
near the bottom of this post,

For those of you that are not in the know,
where have you been?????
this year long challenge is in its autumn time of life for this year,
we are nearing the end only Nov/ Dec to go,
head over to the Kathryn wheel blog to see what every one has been up to,

Here is my November page,

I thought I would do a fallen leaf theme

hope you like it.

Here's the distress ink colours I used

to create the background,

& here's the stash I used for the stamping part,

for the November I used my fave Tim Holtz alphabet stamps,

I coloured it in with copic markers,

the leaves are cut from the tattered leaves die

& from textured card that I sanded & distressed

the squirrel is from an google image search,

& the sentiment I made up myself &

printed out on the computer,

The squares are again as the other months part of a TSV on QVC

bought ages ago (glad to put them to good use)

I doodled around each square with a zig pen & a white gel pen,

the days of the week are done on my computer,

as are the numbers (then punched out with a square punch)

& coloured with copic markers,

Hope you like it!

Here's my October pages all filled out,

Only one more set of pages to go,

bit sad about that as I have enjoyed

keeping up with this challenge

(but I will say keeping track daily has made the year fly)

anyway that's me for today,

other than to say a huge thank you

 to each & every one of you that has left me a comment

I love to read them, & they are much appreciated.

Thanks for stopping by,

Back soon,
