Halloween Lumiere and DecoArt

A quick and easy Halloween project using a small amount of  supplies I had in my craft stash. I altered a kilner jar ( found in the jam making section ) of my local hardware store. A spooky label printed onto inkjet vellum and attached to the jar . Techniques applied learnt in Andy Skinner's

 Evil Elixir Mixer and Book of Secrets Workshops. Finished off with some fabric ( Halloween section ) in my local pound shop and tied with some string. Not forgetting the battery operated tealight also from the pound shop a bargain at three for a quid.

Introducing Sisters With Attitude.

I want to share with you a fabulous new medium to incorporate into your mixed media artwork called Craft Attitude. What better way to show you it's many uses is the Sisters with Attitude project put together by my good friend Trudi Sissons ( Two Dresses Studio ) and the Tumblefish Studio Creative Team which I am proud to be a part of using craft attitude and images from Tumblefish Studio ( Marsha Jorgensen ) @ Deviant Scrap.Most of the TFS Creative Team made art pieces using Craft Attitude art film for the first time to participate in this project and the results were amazing. 
 Craft Attitude isn’t transfer paper. It’s a new, patented technology that allows your printed inkjet image to be separated from its original paper carrier and become part of a new surface when applied. - See more  information on this by clicking on the link in my sidebar. So here we go in the first of my posts for this weeks Sisters.
