31 Days of Halloween - Day 22

Welcome

to Lyneen's Day 22 of the 

Smeared and Smudged 

31 Days of Halloween Blog Hop!

 

During the month of October I am participating in a month-long blog hop with some amazing artists.  Everyday you will find a new Halloween project on all of the blogs listed below.  Each project must have stamping on it, be it digi or ink. There are prizes to win, be sure to check out all the rules HERE and information. There is a daily scavenger hunt, you must go HERE to find the clue/s for the item/s you are looking for in the scavenger hunt.  To find the previous day winners go HERE.  Have fun and Good Luck!

Today  I am playing with SCRAPS!!! I have been using a lot of Bazzil - All Hallows Eve and Graphic 45 - Steampunk Spells pattern papers. Well I have ended up with a lot of SCRAPS... The following are dedicated to those Scrap pieces of paper that may end up in the trash! I mixed and matched peices of paper to make these cards!

Stamps on the card:
Amuse - Bat
 Memory Box - Stair with pumpkin
Hero Arts - Happy Halloween 

Add a little Stickles for pizzazz!

Stamps used on this trifold:
Amuse stamps: Witch, Broom, Spiders, and "Happy Halloween" 

Front has a side pocket.  

Mid and final sections have a top loading pocket

Hope you enjoyed these!

Hobby Craft Baby Design Team!

Have you seen the products Hobby Baby Craft has on the market?  Don't let the name fool you. At first I thought I don't have any babies so I will pass on looking at the site. I was wrong!!! I just fell in love with their globe frames.  I haven't had a chance to get my hands on any at this time, but I believe they are great for altering, saving keepsakes and much more. Also you can get some beautiful embossing powders from Hobby Baby Craft, check them out here HERE! Then there's the Card Decor HERE! Since I am to taken by the products I decided to try for the Hobby Baby Craft design team.

To start I took an average frame I picked up at the thrift store.  

With an embossing pad I dabbed the frame and added vintage embossing powder and then verde embossing powder (both of the powders are from my stash.)   

The background paper and image I am using is from K&Company. The image is a dimensional sticker I painted with clear crystal lacquer.

These are a sample of the Card Decor pieces from Hobby Baby Craft. I painted them with Gesso.  I must say I am very pleased with the quality of these small die cut pieces. They are cut from a something like a thin pressed wood. No little perforations to sand off.  

After the Gesso dried I added a bit of color to the Card Decor pieces using crystal lacquer and Terri Sproul Mixers.  

Add a few jewels from Memory Box and my frame is finished. I LOVE the transformation!


Watch for the new Hobby Baby Design Team on their blog HERE!

Thanks for stopping by. 

Hope you take the time 

to check out the great products 

at HOBBY BABY!

MEMORY BOX STAMPS

I love this new stamp from Memory Box... the birch trees are embossed. I added a little Stikles for snow on the branches.

The first card I distressed the edge with embossing powder.

The second card I added the little bird.

I just got this in my emails... I am excited to meet the talented Dave Brethauer.  Hope to see you there.

This Friday, January 15th, 6-8pm (Free) at Rubber Soul - it's hard to believe the holidays weren't all that long ago - they seem soooo last year. with the transition out of christmas comes some major running around in an attempt to transform things from christmas doves to hearts of love. we'll be posting some valentine cards in the days to come from our new collection of stamps. meanwhile, for you local folks (or even the ambitious semi-local folks) we will be hosting the famous dave brethauer of memory box stamps to our poulsbo rubber soul shop this friday. he'll be here to introduce his new line of stamps and papers - the valentine studio - and will be demonstrating and providing a make-and-take for all to do. it's always such a pleasure to see dave - he's one of the kindest and most creative peoples we know. so grab a friend, and treat yourself to a friday night of free hands-on creative inspiration. we're even scoring some lemon bars for you, just sayin'.

Two For One! Pretty Paper Hearts & Wednesday Stamper!

This is the first time I have taken part in the Pretty Paper Hearts Challenge... Yellow Hearts was the challenge this week.  At Wednesday Stampers their challenge was to user hearts in a different way.  I have "yellow heart" flowers in my garden!

On my ATC's I used Rubber Soul sentiment and Memory Box "Versailles Crest" around edges.
