Song Title

By -
Well I should confess I got kind of excited with the theme for Ike's challenge and knew exactly wanted I wanted to do and what image to use.  I'll let you guess the song I based this card on.

For this card I used the following

  • Black soot distress ink
  • Faded jeans distress ink
  • Old paper distress ink
  • Tea dye distress ink
  • Stormy Sky distress ink
  • White glitter
  • Silver glitter
  • Iridescent gold H2Os
  • Shades of Purple Promarkers
  • Ike's spanish dancer image 

For this I've typed the lyrics to the song out and printed it.  Distressed the lyrics with tea dye and old paper ink.  I've also printed Ike's image and coloured it before cutting out.


I masked an area off and distressed inked the background adding glittery stars.  and painted the area I masked off with H2O's.  Then I stuck the lyrics and image on.



 Okay so at this point I should probably tell you what the song I chose is.  Well it's Nicky Campbell's Moonlights back in style sung by Mark Moraghan... Click for a you tube clip or you can find the lyrics here.

    Sall - I know the things we talked about re you being inspired in your art but baby - the student is surpassing the teacher by a long shot! This is outstanding! You are not only coming up with great coloring, images to use, but your innovation on HOW you use the different materials is glorious! I love what you have done with what looks (has the look) of parchment and is just perfect for the song and lyrics. I love the way you wrote your post in a guessing way...I really was "working the program" to figure out what song it was. At first I thought "I could have danced all night" then "La Bamba" then was wracking my brain for Spanish songs. This is not only brilliant, talented but hugely FUN! You are amazing Sall...And I love your blog background. Isn't it fun when you get your feet all comfy in blogland how you can just go and "change" something and do what YOU want and not worry about what others think? It feels to me Sall as though you are completely owning your blog, your work, your words and we are simply invited now into your gallery. I LOVE IT!!!!! Good Luck my friend. I have valued this journey with you on a personal level that you have shared, re what this all means to you, inspirations and where you are now! Keep up the great work Sall. It's contagious! Thanks for coming to IKES WORLD CHALLENGES! Samara DT

    Your project is totally cool. I especially love the cool moon and stars background and of course the way you distressed the lyrics. Beautiful job! Thanks for joining us this fortnight over at Ike's World Challenges. I hope you will consider coming back and playing with us again soon. Good luck in the draw.

Christmas in June feels late to me, I normally start prepping for Christmas around New Year’s Eve!   When I first saw this image the first thing I thought of was to print it as large as possible and decorate it as a cone angel I used to make as a child.   Then I calmed down and thought about it and decided to go with a scrap page…the only minor problem is I can’t seem to stop singing Angels from the realms of glory now!   Okay I’ll stop waffling now but I have some questions later if You would be so kind as to point me in the right direction please?  This is to be entered in to Ike's Challenge To make this page I used: Gold Glitter Iridescent Gold H2Os Gold H2O’s Silver and gold mirri card Christmas cuttlebug embossing folder Mini tiny mini beads Ribbon I printed cut to size and glued together in the weird shape my Christmas angel and tree photos, then matted them on silver mirri card.   I used the cuttlebu...

One Stitch At A Time {OSAAT} Challenge 236 Anything Goes Special Lady

This is my first post for One Stitch At  A Time {I’m am so honoured to be allowed to cover for Nataliya whilst she takes a holiday} and I wanted it to say something about me as well as the theme for the challenge. The theme this fortnight as One Stitch at a time  is anything goes with special lady.  Now I have a few of those in my life, however recently one person has shown me just what a special lady they are through helping me when things got tough.  I send her happy mail a lot and she gets a special birthday card but when it comes to Christmas…the sheer number of cards to be made and sent at the same time means she generally gets a boring handmade card.  I saw the OSAAT challenge theme as a good way to show her how special I think she is at Christmas. I’ve chosen to use the pilbury snoboy image because the snowman is baking and I love to bake and share cakes {because I’m not that fussed about eating cakes}.  It also shows how I’d love to bake fo...

The beauty of death

Gosh here I am blogging again...this time it's a "dark" art journal page.  I love doing these I just sit and play and see what happens.  There's something natural about dark craft that appears to my soul begging for freedom.  I lost track of time and it was only several hours later I emerged ravenous and realising Nan had slept for far too long...tonight I fear could be bad! I've used images from  Ikes Art  to create this page about the beauty of death.  I was really excited when I discovered it was to be a "dark" image over at Ike's Facebook Group challenge this month, I just don't see the "darker" images and creations around much. To make this I've used a background of distress crayons, the tree is made using novou mousse, the leaves are brushos, the mushrooms are stamped as are the bugs from various Hobby Art  stamp sets.  The quote is one I thought of suddenly at the end of the project and is written by me.  It reads: ...
