Blog Hop

Welcome to the Smeared and Smudged Blog Hop!!!

the theme for this month's blog hop is "Pieces and Parts" Use at least two stamp or digi images combined to make a "new" image or focal point on your project.

and here is my creation

I took a girl from the Chicks dig guns set and the wings from Quoth the raven and made a new image...kinda an angel of death sort of feel....I used the mask technique to get the wings on her.

I colored her with colored pencils, the gun too...then I liquid glassed the gun to make it really stand out...I was inspired by a scene in the Rock N Rolla challenge this month...in the music video a cop drops something in the water and she is black and white and the water is blue...it was really cool! that and I loved making my grumpie card earlier this week I just had to try it again...and I didn't do to much else to this and I love how it turned out...it may become a wall hanging instead of a card...hmmm

now that you have heard me ramble...go check out what the rest of the members have for you...here is the hop list if you're lost...your next stop should be Heather

here is a card I made for the Oh the horror challenge on the Smeared and Smudged
being that Hellraiser is one of my favorite Horror flix I just had to make something for it!

this lil guy came from the Creepers set from smeared ink...and he reminded me of one of the Cenobites from Hellraiser so I just had to use him. (by the way this cenobite honestly scares me every time I watch this movie!)I colored him with my pencils and some markers used red ink and made smudges, the scratches are from the chicks dig guns smeared ink stamp set...and the background paper is made using wax paper (the guest DT challenge for the month)
I hope you enjoyed it...if you hurry you can enter a challenge too...but you have to get it in by tonight...thanks for taking a look!

Smeared And Smudged Member hop

Welcome to the Smeared and Smudged member’s blog hop!

This month our theme was technique….we all chose something different…as you have probably seen…(you should have come here from Sugar’s blog)

For my card today I have used the Faux Barnwood Technique as I saw it on the technique junkies site.

I used one of the girls from the Chicks Dig Guns Smeared Ink Stamp set…I colored my girl with colored pencils. I just thought this image was fitting…all rustic and country looking :)

Here is what I used and did for my technique…

Materials needed:

(1) White (base) cardstock, Foam brushes, Light acrylic paint, Dark acrylic paint, Elmer’s/white school glue

(2) Paint cardstock with dark color. Make sure the paint is applied evenly (some cardstock showing threw is ok) let this layer dry completely.

(3)And then paint on a thin layer of glue. Allow the glue to dry for only a few seconds. The glue will have a milky appearance and be tacky to the touch.

(4)Then, paint on a layer of the light paint.

Note: The thickness of the each acrylic paint layer will have different effects on the final crackle, You may have to experiment to achieve the desired results while adjusting the thickness of the layers.

Here is a bit closer look at the background paper

Now off you go to the rest of the hop… your next stop is Dianne’s blog

NeverMore with this chick

Today is my Smeared Ink day...and I have chosen to share a chicks dig guns card with you today.


I think she is so cool! I just love her dress!!


the senti came from Quoth the Raven but the rest is from the chicks dig guns set. I used a technique called thumping on her dress and feather...I saw it on Splitcoast...there is a bunch of action going on over there this weekend...its called VSN and there are a ton of challenges, and thumping was one of them:)
thanks for taking a lookie look...I'll see you in the forum!

Soul Mates / Shrinky Dink rings

I hope you all are having a wonderful weekend!
There are a bunch of great things going on at the Smeared and Smudged Forum allot of changes are going to be made on Monday.....but today I would like to share with you our new DT blog its called Smudgy Antics, each day one of the DT members will have something to share with you...one stop shopin for all your creepy, dark, and just down right awesome desires!

Sunday is my day to share, and I have altered this little box...its actually called a love box they are made by durex to hold condoms ;)


I altered this little box using my Holy City Stamp set, I took the image and modge podged it on my box then stamped soul mates on a flower and glimmer misted one flower red and the other black, then I had to make something to go inside it so I made some Shrinky dink rings

I used the birds from holy city, the heart from chicks dig guns, and the skull from Bo Peep. I found the ring tutorial here
my inspiration to make a box came from Jane our guest DT Febuary Challenge which is to create or alter a box to hold a valentine gift or card....I couldn't wait to enter a challenge this month, starting now Smeared Ink is releasing an exclusive freebie that they are giving away to those who participate in any of the Smeared and Smudged Challenges this month!


Thanks for stopping by!

Chicks Dig Guns S&S challenge

I made my first step card!

I used the chicks dig guns set from Smeared Ink and made my own background paper using alcohol inks...my inspiration came from the oh the horror challenge this month which is double movies Planet Terror, and Death Proof...and they both feature some bad-ass chicks with guns! I haven't seen the movies but I have seen the previews and I think my hubby has seen them...anyways this is what I made and I LOVE it!

go check out the Smeared and Smudged forum and enter some challenges, or be there when the new challenges are up, they run the whole month, and this month's prizes are so cool...I can't wait for next months (ha ha I know what they are and they are super cool too!)
