Calypso Tag

Today at the Smudgy Antics blog its the final day of Smudgefest :( but tomorrow the weekly challenges start so get ready for that!
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! Calypso is just colored with pencils...oh ya and I finally got a corner rounder today...can ya tell?

Twisted BoPeep

Today at smudgefest it is
Twisted Thursday
we are to create an ATC with a twist...so here is what I came up with...

I used the Killer BoPeep stamp set from Smeared Ink (colored with pencils and added glitter to her eye) and that stamp set alone some would say is twisted...but I used the fence...with the twisted vines, and I made some twisted flowers (after seeing Susan's post with the link to a twisted flower tut...not sure if I did them right but hey they look cool to me!) so there you have it...thanks for takin a look.

Edit: my lamb is fussy cut

I would like to enter my twisted ATC into the following challenges:

Terrifying Tuesday

today for Smudgefest the challenge is called "Terrifying Tuesday"
and we are to showcase our fave scary Smeared Ink stamp
here is mine


this stamp from the As Death set has always scared me for some reason...I donno just creeps me out! and the senti came from Hellraiser (ya still thinking of that movie) my sketch came from Smeared and Smudged's Very Sketchy challenge...

I colored my image in pencils, and the background paper I made using glimmer mists and rubbing my ink pad directly on my paper...I thought it was creepy cool.

thanks for taking a look...can't wait to see what the challenge for tomorrow is!
