Today the sweet Friends of SCACD
group and the SCACD DT are showcasing Fall
images, even some with a twist.
If you want to see all the peeps presenting their
inspirations today, not to mention a shot at some yummy blog candy, and Susana's offering a sweet FREE digi image thru 10-5, head to the
SCACD Store Blog for details: http://heartsandhugz.blogspot.com/
Susana graciously gave me SCACD The Hatter, by Carmen Medlin, to work with this week. I love this image. Fun, quirky, and crazy to color. Which I did, with my Copics, after printing it on X-Press It BC:
Skin: E000, E00, E21, E11, E04, R20
Hair: T2, T4, T6
Hat: T0, T1, T4, T6, T8, T10, E53, E55, E57, BG72, BG75, BG78
Goggles: E53, E55, E57, BG72, BG75, BG78
Jacket: BG72, BG75, BG78
Shirt collar/Ascot: T0, T1, T2
I must confess that I went out of my mind with my E50's. They are too gunky to work with anymore, even after cleaning and refilling. So I ordered new ones online, and altered the coloring a bit--I substituted other colors for areas that I had planned to make golden brown. Oh well...stuff happens, right?
I added a bit of Pearl Pen to the image after Zutterizing it. I also Zutterized my DP, from the Graphic 45 Steampunk Spells collection. I paired that with Stampin' Up CS, which I also used to make several die cuts from the following dies:
LaLa Land Crafts Steampunk Corner
LaLa Land Crafts Wings
Cheery Lynn Gears
Cheery Lynn Steampunk Pocket Watch
Whimsy Ticket
My sentiment is from the Whimsy Ticket Notes set. And I believe that about does it. I chose this image for a good friend of ours, Ed, whose birthday is on the 17th. Wild that I have it done so far ahead of time, hey?
Anyway, I do hope you check out all the fabulous creations by the SCACD Friends and DT! And be sure to look at the new digi images on the website. There are so many fun ones to choose from!
Here's hoping you have a wonderful Wednesday and start to the new month!
