Smash Book Art : Alive

Fancied getting my paints out as I have been watching alot of Leilani Joy's Art Nuvogue  and I just love her paintings but as I have said before I am rubbish at drawing!

I had this quote from Frankenstein where the Dr says "It's Alive!" and I found this quote: The whole point of being alive is to evolve into the complete person you were intended to be!


I also saw a pin-up Bride of Frankenstein tattoo which Kat Von D did on LA Ink a while ago but cant find a photo of it anywhere!


I know its not Halloween but I fancied painting something with that and this is what I came up with.


Image traced but changed a bit from http://dv-venom.deviantart.com/art/The-Bride-of-Frankenstein-2-358921824




It got a tad messy and had a few issues where mist would not go through lace or my mesh and got black paint everywhere as I couldn't get the paint to run properly but I got there in the end. 





Thanks for taking the time to look and any comments left xx

Its much appreciated.

Sam's Scrapbook Process : Easter

Good Evening All 

Just realised in one of my nieces scrapbook I am a year behind!!!

So thought I would try and get a bit caught up. I still have Christmas 2012 to scrap in her album but wasn't feeling Christmasy last night so through I'd skip them and scrap her Easter/spring photos.



Used:
Paper - First Edition - Spring Drop

Paper - Me & My Big Ideas Spring Mambi Kit
Jolees - Large Happy Easter
Smash Journaling Card
Free 2013 Project Life Card





I also made another layout but it was super quick and didn't video it.

Sam's Scrapbook Process : If there ever comes a day

Good Evening All 

Happy New Year this is my first post for 2014 and its slightly a sad subject ive scrapped.

Its a heritage layout I have been working on for the past few days and the journaling is what took the longest as I really didn't know what to right. The photo is of my great aunt and uncle who died age 3 and 4 of Diphtheria in 1934. It is the only photo we have of them and I believe this photo was taken a month or so before they died of the disease. Very sad as my great grandmother also lost another son age 5 to the same thing 2 years earlier in 1931 but there is no photo of him.

I have had the photo for quite a few years and wanted to go with a vintage nursery theme but didn't know how to do it.





Used: 
Paper - Colorbök - French Prep

- The Girls' Paperie - Vintage Whimsey
Colorbök - Homespun Paper Collection
