LOC # 66 - die cuts and/or punches

Today brings a new challenge over at Left of Center Challenges.  This week we are challenging you to use die cuts and/or punches, but of course you can always go left of center instead :).  Our sponsor is The East Wind. I was so excited to play with Twisted Venus.



I've colored her with pencils and cut her out to add to my mini journal.  I prepped my journal page with gesso and wanted some sparkle so added some blue glitter before it dried. Accidentally dropped a big glob right there in the middle but after I added Twisted it looks like she's throwing it so I think it works :) I also sprayed some blue ink so the glitter wouldn't be so stark against the white gesso background. I found the sentiment at Ginger's House  and figured my  glitter accident was meant to be. The work sparkle printed out lighter than the rest so I went over it with a blue gel pen.

What are you waiting for? Head over to LOC to see what DT have created to inspire you and join in the fun!

LOC #41 & PYG #15

 Hello my crafty friends, today a have two new challenges to share with you.

The first one is from Left of Center Challenges. The theme this week is "inspired by a song" and our amazing sponsor is A Day for Daisies.  My project isn't LOC this week, I went with the theme instead. I've used Freehand Butterfly 1.  I printed the butterfly 3 times and cut out. I've used glimmer mist to color my butterflies and then added them to my journal where I've used water color crayons to make my rainbow background.


My song for this page is The Rainbow Connection.

My next journal page is for the new challenge at Punk You Girl Challenges.  The theme is anything goes but I decided to go ahead and be inspired by a song again. Our fabulous sponsor this month is The East Wind. I've use Lucy-Loo Attitude. I thought she fit perfectly for one of my favorite songs by Halestorm.


I used glimmer mists to create the background. I colored Lucy in pencils and cut her out to add to my page. I wrote the song lyrics on some CS and cut them out to add to the page too.

So what are you waiting for, come join the fun.   LOC - inspired by a song and  PYG - anything goes.
