Bombshell Hop

Today is the Bombshell Hup Day Hop!!!
and I'm super excited about this one...its on my favorite subjects...bomshells and movies!
the theme is "put me in the movies"
and here is my card

I used a car from the Speed Shop set and made it red with big yellow headlights like in the Stephen King movie Christine...I colored my car with pencils and made my background paper with red paper and black ink...I made the base and everything very dark (like the movie) and added my get well senti (unlike the movie) because this card is going to Ryan

If you haven't heard about Ryan yet you can go here to find out more...
Meredith is having a call for cards for Ryan...a friend that was in an accident and is currently in the hospital with a brain injury, and Meredith is asking that people send him cards to make him happy and hopefully help him recover...

now back to the hop....here is a list of all the great participants...be sure to leave lots of love!

Hubby's B-day card #1

This weekend is my Hubby's B-day and so I told him that he was going to get a ton of cards because I have so many ideas...he inspired me :) aaaaawwww I know puke....shut up!

anyways there is a challenge going on at Kenny K's Krafty Girlz to make a card using layers...so I went out and bought me a new image to play with (I let hubby kinda pick...I narrowed it down to 3) and here is my creation.

isn't she sexy?!? he is just going to love her...how could he not? her name is Allura Von D. I colored her with my colored pencils and then added on the layers and a CTMH stamp and there I have it...well there he has it ;) I'm so excited to give it to him (the card that is, not....oh never mind) I kept the outside of the card clean...its the inside that is as dirty as Allura ;)

I found a sketch with a bunch of layers at Guylou's Inimitability blog that I want to enter this card into too...

New weekly challenge

ugh Mondays suck! I'm so tired today...couldn't sleep...I feel like I'm sleeping with a basketball (she is something like 14 inches long and just over 2lb)...I go to the Dr today...maybe he can suggest something....anywho...to help Mondays along the brilliant minds behind Smeared Ink have begun their weekly challenges on Smudgy Antics...starting on Mondays! you know me I love a good challenge!

last week we kicked of the challenges with a week full of them...called it Smudgefest...there were lots of prizes and fun all around! so today for day one of the regular challenges...they are challenging you to "Create a project that features splatter, drops, splodges, or blots." and you must use at least 1 Smeared Ink stamp on your project....

here is what I came up with.


I used the free digi I got from entering last month's challenges and glimmer misted my papers...I made some bigger drops with the blue by spraying inside my glimmer mist lid and shaking it out...pretty cool if you ask me...I really wanted to think outside the box with this challenge...my first reaction was blood...of course...but I really like how this turned out...but now I want to make a bloody card :) I also used a senti from the occasions grumpies and kinda made it an over the hill birthday card...lots of b-days in Aug for me...I also used another of my fave glow skulls...so much fun!
thanks for taking a look...now go see what the rest of the DT has created for you splatter droppy splodgie viewing pleasure!

For Sunday's Synonymous challenge you are to use Calypso the rat....thats right there is a freebie but you only have a few more hours to snag her up so hurry!
here is my creation
I made this tag using her and a senti from Stamp Insanity and some of my new fave embellishment glow skulls (you can get them at creepy glow's etsy shop)...the orange background paper I made by embossing some wax paper and then ironing it onto some cardsock then inking over it...it made a sort of resist it was super fun...but the swirls in the paper made the swirly skulls a must...love it!
