Zombie Walker

Hi Susan R here!

Sal has drawn lots of super images for September.

I have decided to use three of them on ATCs and this post shows you the third...

This image is Zombie Walker.

I coloured it with Promarkers and cut it out.

 I then added it to an ATC to go in my Autumnal/Spidery Mini Journal

 - for more details please take a look on my blog!

Opposite Twins

Hi Susan R here!

Sal has drawn lots of super images for September.

I have decided to use three of them on ATCs and this post shows you the second...

This image is 'Opposite Twins'.

I coloured it with Promarkers and cut it out, splitting the image in two to make two ATCs.

These have gone into my Autumnal/Spidery Mini Journal

 - for more details please take a look on my blog!

Rule the World

Hi Susan R here!

Sal has drawn lots of super images for September.

I have decided to use three of them on ATCs and this post shows you the first...

This image 'Rule The World' made me think of the paralympic games!

I coloured it with Promarkers and cut it out.

But then I added it to an ATC to go in my Autumnal/Spidery Mini Journal

 - for more details please take a look on my blog!

Men might rule the world - but there are an awful lot more spiders...

Just a little inspiration from me today!!

I have used Happy Cat Big Grin coloured with Promarkers and cut out to make an ATC:
I thought this was a Cheshire Cat sort of cat so this is one of my Alice series ATCs.

The background is a distress ink background trimmed and matted onto snippets of purple and red card. I printed the sentiment from Alice in Wonderland on my computer.

I made this as a DT make at Crafting from the Heart which is being sponsored by SLS this week...

Did you look at the New Releases yesterday?

If not please scroll down to look at the fabulous makes...

I made this Birthday card for my nephew.

I  combined the image in Serif Craft Artist 2 with some background papers from

 Dragons Lair Designs Grungy Blues

- and added some blue to the image.

I used this in the same way to make an ATC - 

by printing it small and cutting around the frame.

  
I just used scraps for the layers of the background and then a few earring bits as embellishments!

Happy Crafting!

Hi Susan R here

I am sharing a mixed media tag with you today...

The image I have used is Rainbow with Fluffy clouds,

coloured with Promarkers and with red Stickles on the hearts.

My tag started with a piece of dark red card

 matted with a piece of canvas paper coloured with

 Ken Oliver Color Burst water colours.

Next I added the image with a die-cut red card frame.

 I covered the whole lot with a piece of lime green mesh

 and added ribbon through a punched hole at the top.

 Finally I added some handmade fabric buttons sourced in India!

Happy Crafting!!

Hi Susan R here

Just thought I would share a journal page today...

This page is inspired by 'Mexico' so I had to use DOTD images.

 I have previously used these on cards - I decided I had to use them again!

The sugar skull image uses the spotlighting technique - just colouring certain areas with Promarkers. I coloured the whole of Dancing Skeletons 2 and Dancing Skeletons with Promarkers.

The first layer on my pages was formed using Ken Oliver Color Burst water colours.

I then added the various images plus some Mexican cutouts - cacti, guitars, chillies and sombreros - found on the internet. I painted the whole lot with Mod Podge.

Sal has now set up a proper website for her images (although the etsy with still be open) Find all her images here

Hope to see your makes in the next challenge starting on the 20th!

Hi Susan R here

Just a reminder that Challenge #19 is still running...

"Half'o'ween"
as it's halfway to Halloween!

My original make used this pumpkin image Pumpkin Patch and I used it to make an easel card.

I was inspired by several poems I saw on the internet and put these lines together...

Anyway - I have now made a couple of ATCs...using snippets of card from my stash, some SU stamps and Stazon, some bat confetti and a little doodling with a fineliner.


This first one uses the same pumpkin image from SLSLines, coloured with Promarkers - 

My second ATC  shows what happens after eating the pumpkin pie...

This image is Rainbow barf
