At the Collage Stuff Yahoo Group, the November swap is a Christmas-themed tag swap. I used number 8 tags. The backgrounds are scrapbook papers, vintage ledger pages, and some gelli print scraps. The Santa images are Victorian scrap available at Collage Stuff. The song image is from Tumble Fish Studio at Mischief Circus. The labels are from the "Tis the Season" collage sheet from Collage Stuff. I added bling using the green jewels or Tim Holtz mirror stars. The ribbons and charms are also available at Collage Stuff. To finish off the tags, I glued a mica tile over each Santa image. Thanks for stopping by to see my new tags!

Christmas Card
Time to start working on Christmas cards! First I made some gelli prints with red, green and gold inks. I overstamped with a swirly stamp in black ink. I painted the white card edges and the white doily with the same red paint. The couple is from a Collage Stuff collage sheet. I added the Tim Holtz holiday flashcard, mirror stars, and small talk occasion sticker. Have you been working on your Christmas cards? Thanks for coming by my blog to view my holiday art!

Monster Art Journal Page
Another journal spread. This is the third incarnation of these two pages. The first two thing I tried did NOT work! That's what gesso is for... If I don't like it, I gesso over it! A new blank canvas! I had applied modeling paste through a stencil with circles, so those were still there after the gesso. I colored the background with Dylusions spray inks. When you spray them on gesso, they are less vibrant. I used a Dylusions stencil for the harlequin effect. I dabbed a couple of stamps around for more texture. On top of some of the modeling paste circles, I applied circles punched out of a gelli print or two. The stamped images are all Dylusions stamps. I colored them with various markers. I applied yellow paint to some grid fabric and used that as a halo of sorts for the 3 scary/creepy guys. The little spiders are sequins. I had a lot of fun making this spread. Sometimes, I feel like there is a monster inside me waiting to get out - when I am angry or upset. Thanks for stopping by!
