Cupcake's Creations: SSS

Hi there! I hope you had an amazing weekend! It's Monday so that means it's time for an all new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! This week's challenge theme is "Spooky Season". I opted to make a page in my art journal exploring the dark side of grey and black.

The beautiful scene in the Serenity stamp set was calling to me to create a page in my art journal.

To create the page, I combined a variety of mediums such as jet black ink, Black Velvet Color Shine, Tinsel Color Shine and Grunge Paste as well as lots of layers made using Tissue Tape and patterned paper.

I added a layered flower embellishment using the images from Paper Artsy.

Thanks so much for visiting ~ I hope you join in the fun!

Hi there! I hope you had a great weekend! It's Monday so it's time for an all new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge on the Simon Says Monday Challenge blog! Remember that we changed name a couple of weeks ago, from Simon Says Stamp & Show, but everything else still remains the same. This week's theme is all about die cuts and if you have visited me before, you are well aware I can't get enough dies! :)

I took advantage of the opportunity to transform a canvas into a clock wreath full of die cut peonies, roses and bitty blossoms.

To prepare the background for embellishing, I adhered strips of French Industrial paper and Symphony tissue tape onto the canvas, randomly applied Gesso then spritzed on Cranberry Color Wash.

I also added a sweet resin cupid and Adage ticket.

Thanks so much for visiting ~ I hope you join in the fun! Please be sure to stop by the Simon Says Monday Challenge blog to see all the amazing DT inspiration!
Be Sweet ;)
