She's Everything

here is a neclace/ box set I made inspired by the SlipKnot video "Vermillion Pt 1" this is the 2nd video for the Smeared Ink Forum

here is an image from the video

and here is what I made

I took a small gift box and glued my image onto it, the image is from Tiddly Inks and I colored her with water colors then I put UTEE on in it to make it super shiny....I then took a domino painted it with silver and again put UTEE on it...this time I did like 4-5 coats and then stuck a butterfly stamp in it and let it cool then removed my stamp and put some black in on it. I took one of my vials that I got from Smeared Ink and put a green butterfly in it....he wouldn't hold still for the pic;) I'm giving this to my sis for her b-day I hope she likes it... oh next to the image it says "she is everything and more" from the song...

Christmas Willow

I hope you all are having a great sunday night! I just had to post this card I made using my new Digi....she is a lil Christmas Lolita and her name is Willow....I have had so much fun coloring her that you are going to see her again very shortly!


this card is for the challenge over at the Lil Lolita Boutique Challengs and it is a sketch challenge...I love these I think sketches are my fave!

I colored her with markers and used CTMH papers...the quote is from create with TLC.... this is my first time entering in one of the LLB challenges so....cross your fingers for me=)

also there is an anything Christmas goes challenge over at Stamp it Crazy so this is going there too...

Joy angel

here is a card I created for the Burtonesque Dolls sketch this week

I used my symbology of Angels stamp set from Smeared and Smudged, I colored his wings and added glitter, I cut him out some underpants and stamped the word joy in white paint and added some denim..I really didn't want a whole lot going on behind him because I wanted him to stand out...and I didn't add to much frill because I wanted a very manly card.....I love these stamps and I can't wait for next month...I have some really cool ideas for them!!

I'm afraid

here is a lil something I made inspired by the music video "I'm afraid of Americans" by Bowie and NIN.... this is the rock n rolla challenge this month over at the Smeared and Smudged forum

here is my project

and here is the video


I used stamponique images and made them look like the guys from the video, I wrote it in yellow because of the Taxi...I think...I donno I just saw yellow when making this=) I used my cuttle bug and embossing folder on red paper for the background...then painted it with dark blue streaks and filed it to get some white to show threw, I hand wrote my title to kinda give it a rugged look, I then added the red white and blue jems this was way fun to make and its going to hang in my craft room=)

Over at the Stampotique designers challenge blog the challenge is to use bling

"We're not sheep"

here is a creation I made for the Burtonesque Dolls challenge....its a movie challenge and I don't know if you know this but Edward Sissorhands is my fave TB movie!! I love it!!! so I had to play along...
I altered this notebook....yes I realize after that I did it upside down but hey...it works for me....any who...I took my lonly boy from Smeared Ink and stamped him and colored his sweater grey and I painted his hands silver to resemble sissors....his face is actually a pale grey but it didn't show up very well...I then glued it onto some tinfoil and went crazy with black and silver paint....I then stamped snowflakes with stazon and wrote in blue sharpie "we're not sheep" which is a quote by Edward that has always stuck with me.....

Life is sweet vampire

today I have made a card using my new Digi from SBS her name is Vampiress Darcy and she is currently on sale! The Challenge at the Simply Betty challenge blog is digi meets rubber, you are to use both of them...so I used my CTMH stamps for the background and the sketch I got from The Sweet Stop their challenge on top of the sketch is to decorate the inside...so I did that too....and last but certinly not least over at the Smeared and Smudged there is a photo inspiration challenge! and that is where I got my color idea from!
I colored the card with markers and that lil flower embelli is also from CTMH

Angelic jewlry holder

this is a jewelry holder I made using a picture frame and some plastic mesh.I took the frame and plastic and painted it black them black and then ripped up a news paper and modgepodged it to the frame and added some sparkle, then I had my husband drill me some holes and added some cut up dowels, I then stapled the plastic to the frame and I thought I was set...until I received my Symbology of angels stamps and I knew they must be added, so I colored their underpants and shrinky dinked them then I threaded them onto some thin wire an added it to the top....I still may rearrange them but I like this for now....and it matches my black and white angel bathroom....
sorry the pics are so bad but I just couldn't get the right light...it has been storming really bad all day...I'll try to replace them later.... I'm entering this into the delicious doodles challenge where anything goes.
be sure to stop by the Smeared and Smudged forum we have a challenge going on there right now where you can actually win these handsome hunks!
