Moonlight howl by Cathy N

 Good morning, Cathy here with a moonlight mini slimline card. 


I started out making the background with some pigment powers. I did blue and yellow. I then stamped the moon in the corner where I had the yellow. 


I then colored it in more with a yellow marker. 

I then stamped fir tree silhouette on the bottom multiple times.  After that I stamped howling coyote  in the middle of the trees. I added some white spray and layered it on a black card base. 



                                                                          Stamped used: 

                                                                           20157 moon

                                                                          19723 fir tree silhouette 

                                                                          19709 howling coyote

Ray of sunshine.... by Tracy Blackwolf

 Hello everyone!

For todays blog project, I decided to start an art journal.

Here is the first page.

To start out, I sprayed spray stains and some water
I then dried that and painted on some twinkling H2os paints. Then I sprayed black soot spray over all and dried that.

Once dry the sparkly paints showed through very nicely. hard to show on camera but its very subtle and pretty. Next I stamped my girl and wings and cut them out. I decided to leave them uncolored since the page is so dark already,
I found some hand made paper in my stash and tore that and glued it down. I also used some washi tape for added interest. I glued that down as well since it likes to lift off.
Before putting paper on, I stamped bats all around. after paper is on I stamped the headstones. also a note, To help protect the next page I used a larger  thin tag board in-between. You could also use shrink wrap. next, I attached the wings to my girl and put foam tape behind her and stuck her on the page. I stamped the saying and used foam tape on that as well.
And that is it! The note book is by Canson and is labeled mixed media. There are 30 pages and its 5.5 x  8.5 " and the paper weight is 138 pound. I tend to used a lot of water and paint so I wanted a paper that could handle it. I'm very happy with it.
Stamps used:
Lady hair blowing    7006
Cemetery                  18907
I am  a ray of fucking sunshine     20176
Flock of bats    18909
Bat wings set     14339

Other supplies
Distress spray stains;   Black soot, lumberjack plaid, salvaged patina, shaded lilac       
H2O's watercolor paints
handmade papers
washi tapes

Wobble Nosferatu by ~*Arwen*~

 Hi Lovelies ❤


Welcome back on this Blog!

Today, I wanna share my wobble card. It's the first time, I tried this one and I had so much fun :)

Close-up:


And a short video to see the card "in action" :) 



And that's the way, how I made it:

1.)First I choose my materials for my bobblehead. I took the Nosferatu motif, Staz on for stamping and watercolor paper.



2.) Stamp and cut out the image. I painted around the cut edge with a black pen.



3.) I now color the Nosferatu head with my handmade watercolor paints.



4.) I now glue my wobble to the back of the cut out head. Now it can be put aside for now. We won't need it again until later.



5.) Now the background is designed. For this I choose the Place Face Here stamp. However, I only use the lower part of this. I don't need the hat. I expand the motif with a micronpen.



6.) I color the background with Prima watercolor paints and a water tank brush.



7.) I refine the background with a bat stencil and Distress Oxide.



8.) Now we can stick our wobble head in the correct position on the card.



9.) The final touches and the card is ready.



All stamps, I used:

- Smear/smudge

- Fuck Head

- Vampire Nosferatu

- Place Face here


Other supplies:

- Watercolor paper

- Staz on

- handmade watercolors

- Prima watercolors

- Posca pen white

- Micron pen

- Distress Oxides

- Stencil

- Cardstock

- Wobble embellishment




See ya soon *mwah*

Wishes by Tracy Blackwolf

Hello everyone-
Here is my blog post for today. Just a simple tag . Enjoy.




I used spray stains in various blues for the background. I  stamped the dandelion in white pigment ink and embossed with white embossing powder. I used sticker words for the sentiment and I glued a rhinestone onto each of the dandelion seeds flying off.

Short and sweet.

You are here by Cathy N

 Today I have a bookmark for you all. Yes, I still read paper books. I love the smell of them. 


I started off by using a piece of mixed media paper. The size I used is 2in X 7in for the bookmark. I then grabbed some bright colors of distress inks. It really doesn't matter how or where you put the colors of ink on the paper. The main thing is leaving space to add the black ink. 


I added the black ink to all the empty spots on the bookmark. For the black ink I didn't use distress ink. I didn't want to have my black ink have water marks on it. After that I took some water to make some drops on the colored parts. When that was dry, I added some white paint splatter to it. I then layered it on white cardstock,

I then stamped Alien Pez and you are here on some white cardstock and colored and cut out. I added them to the bookmark, and it was done. 



                                                                        Stamped Used:

                                                                      1623 Alien Pez

                                                                      19178 you are here
