Catch up with November

Well this month has flown and i have just finished November , my theme being Autumnal colours and leaves. Basic really but used Dylusions stamps which i love.
My background is using white paint through a stencil as i ran out of Gesso! But it works well for added texture.

Octobers here

So a predictable theme of Halloween i guess.
I started off with Dylusion spray inks i used Pomegranite and Pomegranite pearl. I gessoed through a harlequin stencil and reversed it in areas. Then spray Holly through an alphabet stencil and again reversed it in areas. The border is Dylusions around the edge which is one of my favourite sets. I added splats of Holly and added the birds spiders web, spider  and bats from Dylusions bits and bats. I stamped the stampotique characters on card and painted them using the same ink sprays gave them hats and stood then on some music sheet. My Journalling blocks are mostly Blonde moments all i want for christmas and some craftwork cards paper.
This is such a busy month for me i am at Art from the heart twice this month so looking forward to meeting Kate doing a mini journal and canvas boards with Dy. Then at the end of October going on a cruise as i will be the big 40 next year my dad will be 70 and mum 60 so a big family holiday for us all.

Canvas

After my canvas class at Art from the heart i went out and bought too many cheapy canvases to alter. I have a good collection of sizes now and am just deciding where they are going etc. My husband picked these colours and roughly told me how he wanted it. He liked the quote which is from Dyans downloads and i printed it on sticky canvas. The only thing now is finding somewhere to put it.

Journal Page.

A Journal page using Dylusions ink spray in Jade and Sky blue with a touch of Fuschia. I used an alphabet stencil and a circle stencil with the fuschia spray.I stamped the leaves using peeled paint distress and Dylusions around the edge stamp set. These were coloured in with distress inks. Using Kates grounding tip i stood Ruby Rainbow on the music paper, she was coloured using distress inks too. The quote is from Dylusions say what you mean which i love them all. Grunge circles and splats of Tim Holtz, then finished with an adage ticket.
