Welcome to Funday Friday Challenge #23 over at  Jo's Scrap Shack

Our theme for this week has been chosen by the head honcho Joann and is "Halloween - Anything but a Card" 

Our sponsor this week is Bugaboo Digi Stamps 

I decided I would again this week create some tags/bookmarks.  Since my sister-in-law is an avid reader I will send one to her with her card for her wedding Anniversary which falls on Halloween.

I printed the Bugaboo image "Trick or Treat Feet" onto glossy card and coloured with Copic markers.  I knew the copic would do OK on glossy as I have played around with alcohol ink previously on gloss.  It really brought out the colour well and not having an orange in my copic colours I was able to combine to get some oranges for the pumpkins.  

My backgrounds are a little streaky but the images coloured up quickly and I was overall pleased with the result.  I mounted the image onto black card and added some ribbon from my stash.  I then doodled around the edges in gold pen to bring it all together.

I hope you join in with us - Come on get creative.

Welcome to Funday Friday Challenge #22 over at  Jo's Scrap Shack

Our theme for this week is "Anything Goes"

Our Sponsors this week include Fitztown and Bugaboo

I never have a bookmark when I need one so I decided to make myself one.  

I created the background using Smooch Sprays - Twinkling Navy and Cherry Ice.  I then stamped my background from The Unity Stamp Company - Tea Time Pattern in Silver ink.

My image is from Fitztown - "Halloween 1" which was printed onto watercolour paper and coloured with a combination of watercolour pencils and my inks which I just smooched the pad onto my craft mat and adding water to give the water-colour effect.   I attached my image after fussy cutting it then I edged the image with a black marker.

I used scraps of ribbon in a burgundy and white.

I hope you join in with us - Come on get creative.

Welcome to Funday Friday Challenge #21 over at  Jo's Scrap Shack

Our theme for this week"Use your Favourite Technique"  has been chosen by my DT sister Candice

My favourite technique at the moment would have to be Paper Piecing.  Taking the same image and layering parts for a 3D effect.  I'm not sure how much you can see from the photo but the photo below will give you an idea of the different sections I coloured and cut out. 

The images were coloured with Copic Markers the image in the top middle became my base. I loosely coloured the surrounding areas with the grey to give another base for the different levels of layers.  I used foam tape for my levels but I saw another paper piecing the other day using silicone glue which would be much easier - I might just have to try that.

After all the piecing together I cut out the image edged it with green and layered upon black card.  Using 3 other scraps I cut and placed them on a black cardstock card base.  I then freehand cross stitched  around each layer which really lifted it.  I really enjoyed this cute digi "Brad Nailed Zombie" from Limited Runs

I hope you join in with us - Come on get creative.
