Weekly challenge at Smudgy Antics and 31 days of Halloween DAY 10

My project for the Smudgy Antics Challenge Black Birds. Not Halloween themed.

I used the Smeared Ink digi Blue Birdrider and the dead dancer fallen digi to put on the cover of an altered notebook.

I took a blanc note book like this

first take the front and the back cover out of the wire

Put designer paper on the front and the back cover, and punch the holes. I embossed gold coloured cardstock using the cuttlebug and glued it to the front of the book.

printed the digi's and coloured them using Letraset Aquamarkers and cut them out. I turned the dead dancer upsidedown so she would fit in the claw of the bluebird rider (I made an almost blackbird of him to fit the challenge, didn't want to make him to dark so added some purple and dark blue)and attached both digi's to the embossed cardstock.


Hope you will join us for the challenge here

And then day 10 of the 31 days of Halloween sponsored by Smeared Ink


A trick or treat bag, The pumkin is from the Happy Haunting Cricut cartridge and the Bats and the Trick or Treat are foam stamps (I think Making Memories).

Be sure to see all the other Wicked Bloggers, see side bar for blog roll.

See you day 11
