Paint Nite

I went to Paint Nite a while back with a few of my friends.  Had a blast and my painting turned out better that I thought it would.

We already have plans to take another class, we just have to agree on what to paint.

LOC #126 - spiders

This week the challenge over at Left of Center Challenges is sponsored by Sami Stamps and our theme is spiders.  I got to play with Zombie Cutie, I just adore this image!

I colored her with pencils and fussy cut her out.  I did direct to paper technique for the lime background and then sponged black in on a couple of my new Tim Holtz stencils. The sparkly spiders are from my stash. Hop  on over to LOC to join in the fun and check out the projects the rest of the design team have created with Sami Stamp images!

LOC #122 - Cute Dark

 Hello my friends!  It's been too long since my last post so thanks for stopping by to see what I've created for Left of Center Challenges this week.  Our sponsor is Nikki Burnette and I got to play with this lovely vampire.

 I colored her with pencils and then cut her out to add to my journal page. I found this poem online and thought it went perfectly with this sweet vampire.  Please visit the LOC blog to see what fabulous creations the DT have made with other images from Nikki's shop.

LOC # 108 - black & white Christmas

This weeks challenge over at Left of Center Challenges is black & white Christmas and our wonderful sponsor is Stitchy Bear Digital Stamps.

I've created a journal page using Define Naughty, isn't she great! I colored her with pencils and had to add a bit of red glitter since it's Christmas time. 

Make sure to check out all the amazing DT makes at LOC and join in the fun this week!

LOC #106 - nothing square

 Time for a new challenge over at Left of Center Challenges! This week our theme is "nothing square" and our sponsor is Kristy.

I decided to create in my mini journal and interpreted the theme a little differently.

My images are from Stampotique and I've colored them with pencil. I cut them out and added to my journal. The background was first gesso'ed for texture and then sprayed with a few glimmer mist sprays. Once that was all dry I doodled around the edge and added some dots here and there.  

Please stop by the LOC challenge blog to check out all the DT makes and link up your entry to the challenge. I can't wait to see what you make!

LOC #104 - sparkle

This weeks challenge over at Left Of Center Challenges is "sparkle" and 

our sponsor is 

Shadow Clocksy.  I have used Biohazard Chibi

I've colored her with pencils and fussy cut her out to add to my mini-journal.  I added a bit of sparkle to her hair and to the smaller circles stamped on the background.  

Head on over to the challenge blog to check out all the DT creations 

and be inspired to join our challenge this week.  

LOC #102 - Halloween

Happy Halloween! It's time for another spooky challenge over at Left of Center Challenges. This week's theme is Halloween and our sponsor is Delicious Doodles. 

I used Pumpkin Pestilence and colored with pencils. 

This image is pretty awesome so I didn't do much else with the card, just mounted on some black CS and added a touch of purple glitter glue to the corners. This was so fun to color!
