Happy Halloween!

I love this time of year!  I know for a lot of people Halloween means decorating their home inside and out, but for me it is a great time to make spooky art.  DIY Design Studio has several fun Halloween collages for your art projects.



Both of my cards started out with plain card stock and a piece of punchinella.  Green ink with green paper and white ink with black paper...just to give the blank space a little texture.


I used a strip of washi tape for a background element but a strip of scrapbook paper or a piece of ribbon would also be great.  I just wanted something fun behind the main collage image.


I added a few highlights to the Halloween damsel with a white gel pen.  There is shading on the pumpkin eyes and noses.  And tracing around the skull and crossbones on her cloak and the grid on her dress really make them stand out.  


A few Dew Drops make a nice dimensional highlight.  


For the card below, I used the washi tape again and also added embellishments to the skeleton's crown.


Be sure to come back again soon for another DIY Design Studio project!  Happy Halloween!

  1. In this manner my partner Wesley Virgin's tale launches in this shocking and controversial VIDEO.

    You see, Wesley was in the army-and soon after leaving-he revealed hidden, "self mind control" tactics that the government and others used to get anything they want.

    As it turns out, these are the same SECRETS lots of famous people (notably those who "became famous out of nothing") and top business people used to become rich and famous.

    You've heard that you use less than 10% of your brain.

    Mostly, that's because most of your brainpower is UNCONSCIOUS.

    Perhaps this conversation has even occurred INSIDE OF YOUR own brain... as it did in my good friend Wesley Virgin's brain around 7 years ago, while driving a non-registered, garbage bucket of a car with a suspended license and with $3 in his bank account.

    "I'm so fed up with going through life payroll to payroll! When will I become successful?"

    You've taken part in those types of conversations, right?

    Your very own success story is waiting to happen. You just have to take a leap of faith in YOURSELF.

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.

Full Circle

Hi all! Becky here today! I have been in a circle-mood lately & have been doing circles on everything! So why not do some circles with some of my Gelli Prints??? Here's a simple little card I made using 4 different circle punches, a black pen & some previously made Gelli prints! Hope you're enjoying Springtime in your area! Cheers!
