Mr. Hyde Good and evil

today I have a "fat page" to share with you...this one is for a few challenges...and it was loads of fun to make!

isn't he bad ass? I love him! he is Mr. Hyde from Stange Skin's Famous Monsters Collection 2 and I colored him with pencils, then I inked the edges of my image...and the senti is a quote from one of the Dr Jekyll and Mr. Hyde movies....
the Junk funk challenge at Smeared and Smudged is to use Tea...so I took some old book paper and made drips of tea some red tea (fruity something or the other) and some brown tea (coca or something). The challenge at Smudgy Antics is "Full moon madness". And the challenge at the Haunted Design House is a "strange brew"
2layers-card and tea dyed paper
1 main image-Mr Hyde
Metal bits-swirly things holding the trim
drops of black pearls- black pearly dots in the corners
1 punched element- lil sparkly bat in the moon
ribbon or trim- funky trim
also there is a challenge at Fat pages with Atttitude- anything goes
Marks Finest Papers-Metal
Forever Night Challenges- Metal Me

I want you

here is my latest ATC (if you haven't noticed I'm really into these lately)
this one I created for the Stampotique challenge thats going on right now...the challenge is "outside the box" here is my creation.

so I made this card and tried thinking outside the box in ways to apply my paint so I used a credit card for the lines and a baby wipe for the dots and the stars were sprayed (nothing new there) I also tried to make a patriotic card yet not your typical patriotic...I really like how it turned out!

I would also like to enter this in the Wicked Wendsday ATC challenge: F-word (flag) and the Friends of SpeedyTV challenge: 4th of July

Murders in the Rue morgue

today I have an ATC to share with you...this one is for the Quoth the Raven challenge going on right now...its based on the story Murders in the Rue morgue....and here is my creation

I cut my ATC size then I painted it with dark blue and red, then I stamped some of my quoth the raven stamps (the skull and the words) then I took my images and cut them out then went over them with wax to make them look kinda like velum, and added some "blood" to the razor and glued it all together.
I would also like to enter this in the Forever Night challenge Freaky Friday-anything goes

so I have created this 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 wall hanging
 

I drew out #1 and #3 so I used 1 Delicious Doodles image and 3 textures, for the first I took some yellow paper and covered it in white glue then painted it with black acrylics then dried it and it cracked, then I took some white paper and coverd it in corstarch pasted that I tinted with black paste and made lil peaks and stuff to give it texture, then I added some UTEE over my image (just sprinkles) to make it look bumpy and cool.
so there are my textures...the image I just colored the rose...I love how it turned out...oh and to make this hang on the wall I added a soda tab as the hanger :) now I'm good to go

I'm watching you

I finally got around to playing with one of my new Kenny K images! I created something for a few different challenges...here is what I came up with

isn't she awesome! her name is Delores Dammage, and she was lots of fun to color.
I used pencils then added a bunch of glitter to her hair and boots, the black paper is tissue paper glued to CS, the red paper is red acrylic paint, and the patterned paper is stamped with my tattered angels flowering vine stamp. then I stamped my senti from Smeared Ink's grumpies set.
For the Kenny K challenge I added allot of "Jazz" like I said all the glitter then ten lil gems. I followed the Sketch at Smeared and Smudged's very sketchy challenge, and I think its Pretty Creepy (smudgy antics) with an Eerie Elegance (HDH) ;)

Somebody that I used to know

I have another art journal page to share with you
This one is clearly inspired by the music video Gotye- Somebody That I Used To Know

if you haven't heard this song you must! it is awesome!!! I downloaded it and now neither me nor the hubs can get enough...seriously I just had it on repeat like 5 times :)

for this page I made all the lines...not sure what to call them...but they are shapes, and it was fun...then I took out my acrylic paints in browns silvers and greens, and painted all the spaces, I printed out my girly pin-up (from Ike's Art) and colored her hair then painted her skin to match, after everything was dry I wrote the lyrics in some of the spaces and took out my cuttlebug and cut out the title to the song...I really like how it turned out and it was so much fun to do...you may see something similar in the future.

oh ya the reason I chose this music video is well I didn't choose it Smeared and Smudged did...every month they have a new video to inspire us to create..its called the Rock N Rolla challenge.

I would also like to enter this page in the following challenges:
