Make it Colourful

Morning Everyone, hope you have had a good weekend and are ready for a new challenge at Smudgy Antics and that challenge is Make it Colourful, BUT, you CAN NOT use markers or pencils. The challenge will run for two weeks, please read the rules before entering :)

I decided to make an ATC and paper piece.  The image is called Rose Coffin from the Candy is Dandy set available from Smeared Ink

Dante, A Divine Comedy

Welcome to the new challenge at Haunted Design House, for the next two weeks the challenge theme is "The Divine Comedy" the story of Dante battling through the different levels of Hell.  Don't panic! you don't have to read it, the pic below gives you a breakdown of the circles of Hell Dante passed through.  

The challenge is to create something inspired by Dante's time in Hell.  You can choose one of the circles of Hell that appeals to you, or feel free to sum up Dante's time as a whole, or just a wild hellish vision of your own.

I have chosen the 3rd circle - Gluttony

The image is by Dahlig, who can be found on Deviantart. Everything else, from the card to the embellishments are from a craft store in Suffolk

I decided to make a bookmark

Here it is

I have used digi stamp Grim Reaper Tombstone from the Build a Graveyard set by Smeared Ink. As soon as I saw this image I new I wanted to make a bookmark with him. I've coloured him with promarkers and added him to plain black card along with a little bling and attached a chain tassel.

PROVIDING it is Edar Allan Poe related!

I made this card whilst visiting my dear friend Black Dragon.  She did try to teach me to make my own flowers, but that didn't go well, so I bought these ones from her local craft shop.  BD made this gorgeous tassel and kindly gave it to me to use on this card.  She did, however, successfully teach me how to make my own tassels!  

Thanks BD. x
