Hi guys
i have been playing with the Beautiful rose stamp from the 


the base is just plain grey then stamped with the grunge flourish on 2 corners, i then mat a pink paper with a rose close up, which i have faded down and stamped the grunge flourish on the opposite 2 corners.
next i added a strip of grey down the centre and edged it with the bottom of the grunge flourish stamp.

i stamped the roses onto some pale pink card and shaded with pro markers, then added with foam pads and to finish i used the word Forever from the Immortal love set.

Morning all
well here i am with my last Delicious Doodles  make for the 
iv really enjoyed this, but i have to say i truly admire the girls who have done all 31 days !


i have used Black Widow  to alter my diary for next year, i printed some black spiderwebish paper, and covered the book, next i printed the image to size and coloured with pro markers ( her hair looks orange but is actually red, just couldn't get the lighting right :/
anyway after it was coloured and cut i stuck it down and covered the whole thing in acrylic gloss medium, so it has a lovely shinny tough cover.


to finish it off i added a bit of spiderweb ribbon down the spine a couple of silver corner details and 2 silver 
spider charms

hey guys..
theme is 
Halloween

OK so here is my make





i thought the pumpkin image was really pretty so although the theme is Halloween i didn't want to go all creepy with it, so using the lovely colours of Autumn i found some nice Halloween papers which i mat and layered, then cut a scalloped circle in the same paper as the base layer, and mat this with a circle i had coloured with antique linen flex marker, then coloured the pumpkin image with pro markers, cut it out and added glitter to the swirly curlys, then stuck this into the circle.
next i took some flowers , and coloured the large one in orange and yellow , and the little ones in the antique linen, the little ones i then dabbed with glue and dipped in glitter.
next i printed a page of leaves and fussy cut them out , and inked the edges, arranged them on the card with the flowers  and to finish added a few little gems.

make number 2 is one i have done to cover another dt member 




i thought this cute little trick or treat witch would make a fab little goodies bag, i found a template on the My craft Studio encyclopedia disk, and used it to cut out the shape from this cute paper which i faded out a bit so as not to distract from the image. once it was all cut and glued together i added the image which is coloured with pro markers, stuffed it with orange tissue paper, and added a black lace bow.

if you head on over to the Glitter n Sparkle Challenge Blog you will find lots more inspiration and the 
Mr linky to add your make, good luck x

hello all
theme this week is 
Non Scary Halloween


here is my Dt card
i have used
 Pumpkin Family Portrait, Pumpkin corner, & happy Helloween

i have made the pumpkin family into an over sized atc kind of thing, and tucked it into the pocket made by the Pumpkin corner.


i matt the happy Helloween, and added it to the base, so once the pumpkin family is tucked into the pocket the message is hidden.



i added tiny gems to the pumpkin corner to finish it all off.

so this is the week for you guys who don't like the scary stuff to come and play with a Halloween theme.
