SCACD The Fairy Dust Collection New Release Blog Hop

Everyone loves fairies right? Well we have some new beauties to fall in love with today!

Welcome to the Susana's Custom Art and Card Design (SCACD) New Release blog hop! I'm so excited to be able to show you one of the lovely new stamps from The SCACD Fairy Dust Collection.

If you have hopped on over from Alex's blog Paper And String then you are on the right track. If not then you might want to hop to the start at Kathi's blog Kat's Tales Of Stamping And Scrapping.

So the new SCACD stamps on show today are illustrated by the super talented Elisabeth Bell. There are six fairies in the new Fairy Dust Collection and all are gorgeous and I'm sure will become firm favourites that you will just want to ink up again and again.

The new collection is available from Susana's Custom Art and Card Design if you are in the US or from Quixotic Paperie if you are outside the US.

My Fairy is called Time Flies...


Isn't she gorgeous? I've coloured her with Prismacolor pencils, but I've also added some gold highlights to her hair, wing cogs, laces and watch with acrylic paint.


The die in the background is the Alice Clock Statement corner from SCACD, and I've used it twice to make the semi-circle. You can find more SCACD dies over at Quixotic Paperie or over at SCACD.


Right, well that is my look-see shared. But there are more lovelies on our journey.


Have fun!

SCACD Blank Canvas Collection #2 Blog Hop!

Who is up for some new stamps and a Blog Hop?

Oh yeah new stamps time! It's the new Susana's Custom Art and Card Design (SCACD) Blank Canvas Collection #2, did you spot the original release in the February issue of Craft Stamper recently? One lovely make was even from our very own Elaine Hughes (the first stop on this hop - if you want to start from the beginning).

So the new collection of stamps and dies are still a lovely medley of inspiration for beginners and experts alike and for all your mixed media, journalling, papercrafts and altering passions. The stamps are available in the UK and internationally from Quixotic Paperie and for USA then pop on over to SCACD.

You can also find the dies at Quixotic Paperie and SCACD of course!

I thought I would go a little bit altering and mixed media for my sample, don't you just love those steampunk wings?


So if you haven't guessed - it is an altered matchbox and I've gesso-ed, added old book pages and washi tape with some extra stamping for good measure!


I've stamped part of one of the sentiments onto some acetate so that I could curve it slightly around the edge of the matchbox.


I'm thinking this might make a fun serious to do - little altered matchboxes with the SCACD Blank Canvas Collection? What do you think?

Ok so you have some more hopping to do! 

Next on your journey is lovely Melanie at Paper Blessings.

Have fun.

Getting Spooky In Morticia's Gruesome Laboratory

Hey everyone, Zombie Kim here to give you a guided tour of Morticia's Gruesome Laboratory, please don't touch any of the bottles in the lab, you have no idea where they have been or what is inside them.

Please take your time to look around Morticia's Lab but if you should hear the terrifying klaxon, which is the wailing sound of many screaming voices, then you should know that your time on this planet has been numbered and there is no escape.

Enjoy your tour!

A Halloween card with Make It Crafty digi-stamps

When Morticia isn't in her lab brewing and stewing she can be found hanging out with her monster pals in the Make It Crafty Mini MonstaGalz stamp set.

Close-up of A Halloween card with Make It Crafty digi-stamps

Her lab assistant Frankenstein, or Frankie to his friends, shoots pool with his monster gang on his days off over in the Make It Crafty MonstaBoyz set.

He doesn't really have a speech impediment, he just likes living up to people's expectation of an evil laboratory assistant, it was in the job description after all.

Sketched Lab equipment

They kitted out their evil lab at very competitive rates from Zombie Kim Dellow Laboratory Equipment Supplies Ltd and their wallpaper was from the Echo Park Apothecary Collection with the extra Halloween greeting from the Artistic Outpost Haunted Halloween set.

That about wraps up our tour, thanks for coming and if you have any questions, now is the time to keep them to yourself. 

Have a safe trip home!

Uh oh! I think I hear some wailing - you might want to run to the gift shop...

Being Yourself

The thing about Bank Holiday weekends is that the following week is shorter - which is good right? Of course it is! But it does mean that I'm thinking it is Wednesday when actually it is Thursday. Am I the only one? You guys can back me on this right?

As it is Thursday and I haven't posted since Monday I thought I would drop in and post a very quick make from my Kuretake demo last weekend.


I've used the ZIG Art and Graphic Twin Watercolour markers for this one, I did a subtle background watercolour wash using a ZIG Watercolour System BrusH20 and then added the splatter effect by flicking the brush tip of the markers onto the card.


The sentiment is one to try and live by isn't it? It comes from one of the SCACD Susana Loves Oddly Sweet Monster stamps - Monster Success.

Right, I need to get some more projects finished before Thursday turns into Friday.

Have a monster Thursday.

My Time Journalling

More inky Kim today with a page from my journal. I have a number of journals on the go at the moment all of them slightly different, you have seen this one before in the Spring with a Kuretake make. What I love about this one is that it is all kraft paper which is great fun to work on.


So this page is called 'My Time' and you can see the gorgeous female silhouette from the Susana Loves Stamp Blank Canvas range from SCACD available over at Quixotic Paperie. She is stamped, clear embossed then over stamped with the fab clock also from the Blank Canvas range.


I've used the spray inks I've been playing with recently and stencils, but you will also spot some ink and dip pen lines and sentiment. This ink was the Kuretake Sumo ink and I'll be talking more about this ink in some up-coming posts so keep your eyes out for that.


Just a little tip, I wanted the silhouette to really pop so once I was finished getting inky I ironed off the clear embossing.

So I thought that I would link this up with the Simon Says Show and Tell Challenge this week which is a 'No Rules' theme - My favourite theme!

Thanks for popping by, hope you are having some inky fun yourselves.

It is a new release day for the Susana Loves Stamps range from SCACD and the SCACD team and Quixotic Paperie team, and guests (one of which is me!) have some blog hopping fun to showcase the new stamps.

This is a monster release! Yep, lots of cute and quirky little monsters in the Oddly Sweet Curiosities Collection plus some cute girls with attitude in the Little Sassy Crew.

So my little monster is a rather frazzled looking kitty - I know how she feels, I think I'm having one of those weeks!


Ahhh! What's up kitty cat?


You can find her individually or in the Oddly Sweet Curiosities #2 Set which you can find at Quixotic Paperie or if you are in the US or Canada then checkout SCACD.

Ok so on to more blog hopping fun.

Here is the blog hop list -

SCACD Susana Loves Stamps Blank Canvas Collection

What? Thursday already? It seems like only a couple of days since the SCACD and Quixotic Paperie blog hop showcasing the new Blank Canvas Collection yet it was almost a week ago.

Well, I have another make to show you from the new range. This one uses one of the women stamps which you can find in the large kit with the women and the head silhouettes or the smaller kit with just the women both available at Quixotic Paperie.


It is a Clean and Simple mixed media make using paint and ink onto kraft.


The sentiment comes with the larger of the two kits.


Enjoy your day you all and thanks for popping in today.

SCACD And Quixotic Paperie - The Blank Canvas Collection Blog Hop


I'm so excited to be part of this new release blog hop party to showcase the stunning new stamps and dies from SCACD. You guys know I love a bit of mixed media so playing with the Susana Loves Stamps new Mixed Media range of stamps was a pure pleasure - I think you are going to like these!

The whole collection is called The Blank Canvas Collection and lends itself perfectly to all sorts of Art and Craft needs from journalling to doodling, from cards to altering, ok so you get the inspiration for this new release!

I've used the the fab steampunk clock from the Rays and Clock set for this make, I've called it 'Remember Today'.


I've stamped it onto acetate and used alcohol inks and white paint to colour the image.


The papers are from the Prima Almanac 6x6 paper pad but I've added a bit of colour through a mask to add details.


If you pop to the Quixtoic Paperie shop you can see all the new stamps and new dies

(For my US and Canadian readers, the new stamps and die collection are available direct from Susana's Custom Art & Card Design.)

You will be seeing a lot more of these from me over the next few weeks but in the meantime don't forget to hop on through the list below to check out all the other new items from the range.

Kim Dellow (That's Me!)

Before I leave you to your hopping Elaine has a storewide 10% OFF Special at Quixotic paperie to celebrate the long weekend!
