One of the Sponsers for this challenge is Sassy Studio Designs.

This is my SSD DT  creation for this challenge

Image I've used is Steampunk Amelia that's been coloured using a mixture of Tim Holtz inks and alcohol pens I've created the background by adding some stamped news print and vintage clocks then highlighted by adding some Tim Holtz inks over the top of the background and topper.

Fathers Day/For Men Challenge

Hi Guys here is another challenge over at Time 4 Scrap Blog the theme for this challenge this week is to create something suitable for fathers day or a male, Sassy Studio Designs is one of the sponsors for this so please go on over to there blog for more details and come and play along it would be great to see what everyone creates.

Here is my SSD DT creation for this challenge

To create this I've coloured the image with Tim Holtz distress inks using a water brush and some alcohol pens, the buttons have been coloured using the alcohol pens to ensure they co ordinated with the colour theme of the card and for the background I've inked the card with Tim Holtz ink pads then added some ripped script tissue paper that I printed onto and applied randomly onto the background mat layer then using watered down pva glue and paint brush I painted the PVA glue over the top of the randomly placed tissue paper to keep them in place  and left this to dry, once dried this gave the background some texture, I then finally added more distress inks and mica powders and mounted onto the card.

For the topper I used a couple of spellbinder dies and again distress them using the Tim Holtz Ink Pads.

Artistic Inspirations Monotone Challenge

Here is another challenge by Artistic Inspirations  and there challenge for this week is monotone therefore you need to create/design something with a monotone theme. 

There sponsor for this weeks challenge is Sassy Studio Designs so it would be great if you came along and join in with this weeks challenge I love to see all your creations.

Here is My SSD DT creation 

The digi image I've used is Sassy Leia  I have coloured in her dress boots and gun using cosmic shimmer mica powders which is a first for me I used a water brush to mix the mica powder's into a paint. I then used my alcohol pens to colour her hair face arms and legs then cut her out to create the topper using one of my spellbinder dies and inked around the edges with my tim holtz black soot ink pad and to create the black matting layer I drawed around the outside of the spellbinders die and cut this out free hand to create the foe matting layer and then added some white dots around the edges and to the backing paper as well as the punched boarder just to help everything pop.

The backing paper I created using a mixture of my 2 graphics programme's one being Craft Artist Professional 2 and the other is My Craft Studio Elite with this graphics programme the programme is built into most of the design cds unless you are buying a click print and go cd so once you have downloaded the graphics programme within one of the design cds that's it you have the programme and any other cds you buy it wont download the programme again will just add the files and add updates if there are any. I love both my programmes as they both do different things and both have a place depending on what you are wanting to do as well as being easy to work your way round, both these programmes have been designed with the crafter in mind.

Right one last thing to let you know in order to get the sentiment onto my backing paper I designed the paper using my graphics programme and added the text to this changing the colour to white and picked a font style from the many choices available on my computer then just printed this out on my home printer.

Thanks for stopping by and taking the time to look at my blog post.
