Dinky Dots Den Challenge #1

There is a new challenge blog set up by my lovely SBS sister and ABC challenge Design Team member Alison, called Dinky Dots Den. They set monthly challenges and this month's is Halloween. You are encouraged to think out of the box so I have decided to make a recipe book using 8x8 scrap papers.

I decide to use purple, orange and black as my main colours.





I have used Lulu on the front cover and followed this week's sketch on a Spoonfull of Sugar challenge. I have broken with habit and got my Whispers pens out and coloured the images in with them. The papers are inked and distress nad I have added cobwebs from the magnolia Autumn stamp club and die cut pumpkins. The Prima flowers have also been distressed.

I used Versafine black onyx and Sepia to distress the papers and the font for the recipes is CHiller - very appropriate for Halloween!

I have used Wizard AJ and die cut bats and pumpkins. I cut crescent moon and full moons out of mulberry paper. I used the Pumpkin Harvest embossing folder for some of the purple papers.

We had great fun creating this - Ellie and Beth helped with the tearing and distressing, and the embossing and die cutting bits of it. Just going to take a while to get the ink off our hands!

Hope you like it,
