Killer BoPeep X 2

its getting to the end of the month...this means crunch time :) I always have things half created and then forget about them until its deadline time....
so today I have an ATC to share with you...here she is
 so I got this Killer BoPeep from the Smeared and Smudged Freaky Freebie challenge...where we are all given an image and we get to create something with it for the challenge....I have this set in rubber (where the senti came from) but having her in digi is awesome because now she is the right size for an ATC...for my background I ripped up some masking tape and put it all over my paper...then I painted it purple, then I stamped some sheep heads allover (again killer bopeep rubber stamp set) and then I stamped out my senti and cut it up and put it on there and then my image...easy peasy...

so here is the story with my image...I colored her then I lost her so I printed out another image (bigger this time...different idea) then my lil one got a hold of the new printed image so I put it aside for a while...then I was cleaning her room and found my first printed colored image...so I finished my card and continued to let lil one play with the image she stole and this is what she created...

isn't she so artistic?!?!

I would like to enter my ATC in the following challenges:
MFP- purple
Sweet Stampin- no cute
Stampin for the weekend- anything goes

Peek a boo geisha

Happy Hump Day!!! today is the Bombshell Hump Day hop brought to you by the bombshells and their lovely hostess Alison! for the theme this month we got to use "Textures and Layers!"here is what I have created
 
I used the  "Peek-A-Boo Geisha" she is a digi image and I printed her out and then used another stamp I had for her umbrella (like I needed another design she comes with two super cute options...I mostly did it just to see if it would fit...you know me I have to be different)  so I colored my geisha and her umbrella, then I made an embossed circle with swirls in it and made them a blue/teal color...made some background paper with my big ginko leaf stamp...then I made some lil circles with Japanese writing on them...typed up my Happy B-day senti in some Asian looking font. and added more colors and layers some pink brads, and I just love how it turned out! oh and I followed the bombshell sketch for this month! I love sketches and there's nothing like two birds with one stone :)

Musically Challenged #3

Saturday was the start of a new challenge over at Musically Challenged and the music video this time is a long one...its Alice Cooper's Along Came a spider...its a small movie I guess...its 3 songs.

this is what I created
 I went crazy with paint...I put down some tan and some blue and some grey then went over it with stencils in black and splattered some red then wrote "what I want, what I need" all over in light colored markers then wrote it again big in white.
Rick St Dennis MFA is our sponsor and he let us work with an image and I chose "art will set us free" and I added shading to her straight jacket and I had fun coloring her hair then I added some glitter to it (everything needs a bit of glitter) and I did a bit of a white wash before I added her to my journal....this was so much fun to create and I'm happy with how it turned out.

be sure to take a look at the blog at how others interpret this music video and then be sure to enter for yourself for a chance to win some RSD images

and remember the DT call is still open if you'd like to join.

Dripping at Smudgy Antics

Its Monday grrr... well there is something good about today, its the beginning of a new challenge at Smudgy Antics!!! This fortnight the challenge is dripping!!! here is what I came up with

 I made this out of paper and cereal boxes (cereal boxes is the junk funk of June at Smeared and Smudged) I had so much fun creating...for the big one I painted it purple then took my circle background stamp from candy is dandy and stamped all over then added some silver swirls and then some blue glitter swirls then glittered up my butterfly from the specimen jars set and glued that on and added a bunch of antennae and added a jeweled border I picked up somewhere. then I added my red dripping from melting a crayon :)

Then I created another (because it was so much fun) I just printed out the Venice Mask Wall and added some green glitter then my dripping crayon again...these were so fun to make! I was inspired to make them because of the June GDT challenge over at Smeared and Smudged which is Masks that and I just watched Masque of the red death again...love that

Be sure to stop by and see what my other teamies have created for their dripping projects then enter it for yourself!

Just Like a Pill

Monday was the beginning of a new challenge over at Musically Challenged!
 last challenge was so successful I'm hoping this one will be too...

the challenge this time is to use the music video Just Like a Pill by Pink

and our sponsor this time is Ike's Art 
I decided to make a get well soon card :) I thought I was being clever :) I colored my image (muse4) with pencils then used a paper nib and some paint thinner to blend....I took some lil red jewel things and painted them to look like pills and added some gauze and some crinkle black paper and black paint just all sorts of messy goodness :) in all honesty I forgot to stamp my card with my get well soon stamp so I had to type that but the real stamp looks allot like that :)

thanks for taking a look...go join in the fun and check to see what my other teammies have created for you!

skull appreciation day hop

Its finally here! Happy Skull Appreciation Day!!! 
today Smeared and Smudged is having a rather large blog hop...full of amazing arts and talents! so I'll try to make this short and sweet so you can get around to all the participants....the list is at the end of this post...eeee have fun I know I will.

So for my offering today I have an altered box to share with you



I took my white box and painted some texture paste on it (thinned down) then I went over that with some purple shimmery paint, then over that with black and while the black was still wet I stamped my fence stamp from Quoth the Raven from Smered Ink all over (dry stamp, just to pick up the black) then I wrapped the top of the box with some purple trim, then I made my cameo with some molds I had ordered from Etsy and painted them black and took some silver rub n buff to them to bring out the details..added some pearl thingies and there it is I just love how it turned out…oh and with the bottom I did the texture stuff then silver for contrast.

birthday texture

its Monday! time for a new challenge over at Smudgy Antics...the theme this time is TEXTURE and lots of it! here is my offering

I made a birthday card with the master Poe and his lil raven...he is stamped and lightly colored and his lil raven friend is a digi all from the quoth the raven set...Poe's b-day hat is from the occasions grumpies set and the ravens is from somewhere online and added some red sparkle to it....the background paper was made by me...I painted white paper mostly red and then stamped my wood background stamp (from Smeared Ink's "Urban Decay") with black paint I then took some modeling paste and went over a circle mask, then added some towards the bottom and stamped Happy Birthday in it. I took some paper and ran it through my embossing machine and stuck mr Poe and his bird to that added some red thingies in the corners and there it is...I had so much fun adding texture to this! oh and I followed the new sketch on Smeared and Smudged created by Anna.

thanks for taking a look
