Happy Haunting at A Tiny Craft (ATC) challenge.

 It must be the 15th of the Month as I have a new post for A Tiny Craft Challenge Blog the theme is SPOOKY. Guess you saw that coming since it's October.  Here is my quartet of SPOOKY for you.


The image is a wood mound stamp from Hero Arts that was a gift from a friend,  I inked the stamp up with versafine black onyx and heat embossed it with black (Lindsey would have been impressed that I embossed) Added a bit of colour with the spica glitter pens. Layered on DCWV Midnight Spell Matstack. The sentiments are on cling mount and I stamp them all and cut them out, so these were in my stash from last year. The patterned paper was layered on purple ten on a black ATC blank. Two green dots were added as an embellishment.

Now here are the ATCs indivitually.


Happy Haunting

Best Witches!

If the broom fits....

Spring has Sprung and time for May Flowers....

 Challenge # 8 at A Tiny Craft (ATC) Challenge is Flowers, it doesn't need to be spring flowers as long as it is a flower it's acceptable. I think the problem will be picking the flowers you want to use, die cuts, artsy flowers, real looking flowers, even poinsettias (was my second choice)  I have a set of 4 "dotty flowers" from Sunshine Designs (now closed) but if you want to have them they are at The Frogs Whiskers   which is a Canadian company located in Ontario. They are the perfect size for ATCs.


One day I was playing around with photo paper, copic markers and a large zip lock bag and made a few backgrounds just for practice and the colours were perfect for how I coloured my "dotty" flowers. The red background has gold leaf on it, I used glue and some gold leaf from the dollar store and it worked well. The flowers were fussy cut (as I was cutting I really wondered why I wanted to stress myself with such fine work, it might be tedious and time consuming but looks great. I added some tiny script words and some of my "homemade" enamel drops. They were made with Perler beads and a toaster oven one Sunday at the cottage (outside)

Here are some individual pictures of the cards.

A better look at the gold leaf design.

I have to admit this one is my favourite (don't tell the other 3)

Last but not least Card #4


Glad you lasted until the end of the picture show and hope you enjoyed seeing my Dotty (funky) Flowers.
