Here is my first project using the Toxic Twins image

I covered a 5 x 7 card blank with Halloween themed paper and then used die cuts for the cob webs. The sentiment is cut out of foam.

I colored the image in using watercolor pastels and then cut them out before adding them to the card.

Altered Birdhouse With Eyeball Flowers

Hello crafty friends

I am back with a Halloween make  that has a creepy weird vibe to it. I wanted to create something i could use as a decoration so i altered this mdf birdhouse. 

I started off by painting every piece with gesso and then a mix of orange and red acrylic paints. I blended the colours together  and left it to dry.

I then assembled it and dyed white paper flowers with Brusho Crystal Powders. I added a little of the brusho powder to the center of the flower and spritzed with water until it had spread out across the flowers.

I then added the faux spider web across the top and front because i wanted to make it look more haunted. 

I then glued glass eye cabochons and skull beads to the flower centers because you can never have too many creepy embellishments in your collection.  I finished off the project by placing  a set of battery powered lights  inside the bird house. You can pick them up in the local pound shops.

If you haven't run for the hills already, Thank you for visiting.

Sweary Goofy Unicorn Mixed Media Card

Hi all

I have an inappropriate greeting card for you all today.

I used the Ice Cream Unicorn By Bloobel which unfortunately has closed down but i still have some of her stamps i can continue to use.

Sentiment is available here

The base of the card was created with a Gelli Plate which i have dusted off and spent a whole afternoon messing with. It was like those days in school where you create a giant mess and then take it home to show mum. Only this time i have a better understanding of how colours work.

I used a stencil on the Gelli Plate with white paint to create highlights which sort of worked but i may need more practice.

I used an alphabet background stamp with the worn grid stamp around the edges and stamped a few around the card allowing the ink to fade a little. 

I somehow resisted the urge to add glitter.

i used a mixture of paints and marker pens to colour the image. I got the sorbet look by mixing Rose Red Brusho Crystal Powders with White Gesso.
