It is Alison’s<\/a>  last week with us in the Designer Spotlight and we would like to say a huge thank you for all of your creations over the past month. It has been a real pleasure to have you along with us :-)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There’s almost too much beginning with ‘S’ in Alison’s<\/a> final project for the month.  There’s the Stargazing Skeleton (from the Poisonous stamp set<\/a>), the Skulls<\/a>, the Spider, the Silvery Stars,<\/a> the Stones<\/a>, the tree Stumps, not to mention that she’s used Stamps, Stencils, Sprays and Spatter, and almost all her main inky colours have a word starting with ‘S’ in their names too.  If you want to see the effect by Spooky candlelight, you’ll just have to visit Words and Pictures!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Andrea<\/a> embraced the S theme by employing Sizzix supplies, stitching, stencils and stamps!  Among other things, she used Tim Holtz’s Abandoned paper<\/a>, the Sizzix Stacked Tags<\/a> Thinlits die set and stamps by Dina Wakley (For the Love of Circles<\/a>) and Inky antics (Big Bold Borders<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Anna-Karin<\/a> was inspired by a new box of Dina Wakley Scribble Sticks<\/a> when she made this pastel journal page. She also used stamps and stencils. The background was done in Dina’s White Media Journal <\/a>and the face was stamped with the Interesting Faces<\/a> set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Barbara<\/a> has been inspired by the word Skull! She created a Vignette box<\/a> with Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous stamp set Life of the party<\/a>, Tim Holtz Sizzix Tangled Twigs<\/a>, Ranger Dylusions Ink Spray Pomegranate<\/a>, Ranger Distress Ink Spray Stain Frayed Burlap<\/a> and Tim Holtz Idea-ology Boneyard<\/a>. <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Cheiron<\/a> says ‘S’ is for “shrooms” and she has colored some of the Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Tiny Toadstools<\/a> in magical colors. She colored in the images using a Detailer Waterbrush<\/a> and Distress Oxides<\/a>. She mounted her panel onto a colorful panel colored with Distress Oxide Sprays<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Emma<\/a> chose ‘S’ for spellbound and created a spooky canvas panel<\/a> for Halloween. Inspired by Roald Dahl’s The Witches, she used her favourite Halloween Paper Doll<\/a> and surrounded them with Skull Fragments<\/a>, Spider Adornments<\/a> and Bat Crazy Die Cuts<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Kath<\/a> chose Spooky and created a Shadow Box card using Tim Holtz\/Stampers Anonymous Decayed Layering Stencil<\/a> and Sizzix Ghost Town<\/a> and Frightful Things<\/a> Thinlits<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Macarena<\/a> chose Steampunk and made a very rough card using Stamperia Circuit Board stencil<\/a> for the background and the Prima Marketing Mechanica mould<\/a> for the inside of the bulb covered with lots of Prima Marketing Rust Effect Pastes<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Maura<\/a> chose Serenity for her letter S, inspired by her yoga and meditation. She worked in an art journal, using Visible Image’s Mindful Moments stamp set<\/a>, Simon Says Stamp Debra stencil <\/a>and Tim Holtz Alcohol Pearl Inks Set 2<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Meihsia<\/a> was inspired to create a mixed media tag with the sassy girl image from Inky Antics Sassy & Saucy Clear Stamp Set<\/a> and the background using Tim Holtz Mini Stencil Set 39<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Sandra<\/a> chose the S for Scary as it’s Halloween season and she transformed this old gent of the  Paper Dolls<\/a> set into a spooky one giving him hollow eyes, she used the traditional Halloween colors for her background using Infusions Blackcurrant<\/a>, Orange County<\/a> and Nuvo Shimmer Powder Fallen Leaves<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
