Zombies Eat Brains with Artful Angel

 Another Zombie ATC to share with you today, using the Artful Angel stamp set called Brains.  I love to make ATCs (Artist Trading Cards) and when I saw this stamp set it kind of fit with a mixed media background.  


I coloured the zombie using my Kalour Coloured pencils and created a mixed media background using texture stamps and ink.  She actually turned out pretty cute, lol...for a zombie!

Alright my friends, I am off to create some more fun and make a mess of my recently cleaned crafty space again!

Inspire, Imagine, Dream

We are bringing back our favorite creations this month at TRHD, and here is my first :) 

 Have I told you how much I love this Succulent Life stamp set from The Rabbit Hole Designs?  I love it so much, I've created 3 projects with it this month!  This is the second project and it is a hexagon shadow box with a clear acrylic front.

HLS ATC August Challenge...Time!

It's time for a new ATC Challenge at HLS!  The theme this month is "Time" and I have created another bundle of ATCs :)



I started these just as I usually do, with a big piece of bristol or mixed media paper.  Then I added some Dr PH Martins Hydrus watercolors and let them move around.  Next I did some stamping and then I cut them down to size.  I got 8 ATCs out of this sheet of paper and I kept the little extra pieces to add as embellishments to these cards. 

After I cut them to size, I distressed the edges with distress inks and heat embossed the text which comes from a stamp by Tim Holtz.  Then I layered on some embroidery thread, and the extra bits of paper which I also added three brads to.  I think the brads give a nice finishing touch.

Thanks for stopping by to visit, I will have more projects for you again soon!

June ATC Challenge with HLS: Christmas


This is my last project post for the HLS ACT DT, although I hope I can stay on for the next term!  I love creating ATCs!  This month's theme is Christmas.  And although I am a bit of a Scrooge, I did enjoy creating these Christmas themed ATCs :)

May ATC Challenge with HLS DT: Hello

Well hello everyone, what a great theme this month for the HLS ATC Challenge :)  This was a fun theme, and as it turns out, this has turned out to be my favorite of the ATCs so far!  It's funny how that works, when you start with something in your mind but you end up with something far better than you ever expected!

April ATC Challenge with HLS: Pretty Papers


Good day everyone!  This month's ATC Challenge theme at HLS is Pretty Papers!  And boy do I have a lot of pretty papers :)  I may be a paper addict, lol, so this challenge theme was perfect for me to use up some of the awesome paper I've been hoarding over the years.
