so here I have a card that I made using the free digi "Frankie" from last month's challenges on the Smeared and Smudged forum.

I colored him up and glimmer misted some green paper and then added black puffy paint to all the stitches...his and the card...I then added my senti...just typed lyrics from Alice Cooper.

Crinkly baby toy

We are officially one week into the 31 days of Halloween!!! YAY its the weekend, It was such a long week...I'm so excited for today...I have another baby shower! so in light of that I made my little one a toy...I found the idea on this blog, and decided to make one for my lil Halloween monster :)

I used CTMH (close to my heart) stamps and some orange and black material I had laying around, and some ribbons...I wanted to get the different textures for her, the rick-rack is kinda felt, and the bats are slick, and the black is grosgrain, I cut up a chip back and put it inside and sewed it up...the back is just black fabric...not sure what kind its kinda slick...and as you can see in the right light...kinda transparent...I stamped my images with black stazon ink...and I'm going to get some C clips (I think is what they are called) so I can hook this onto her car seat....this was so fun to make and so easy, I'm going to do more for my baby and have some on hand for other showers...

thanks for taking a look...have a fab weekend and don't forget to visit the rest of the blogs on the list ----->

Lonely boy tag

so how was day 1? super cool hop huh? this is going to be so fun! such talent!!
now onto day 2
today I have a tag to share with you


I used alcohol inks to make the background...I first made alcohol splotches, then went over them with rubbing alcohol to lighten them, and then I put droplets of alcohol down and took a coffee stirring straw and blew the alcohol and made the splotches....I was just playing around and I really like what I came up with...so I stamped my Lonely boy (from Smeared Ink) and his spider and added a glittery boo to my tag...and there I have...what I think...is a pretty cool tag!

now off you go to the other fine people of the hop...again they are all on my sidebar...and you don't want to miss anyone....the whole month there is going to be prizes to be given away....all you have to do is find the hidden image in one of the blogs....every day there will be a chance for a prize...good luck and have fun hopping....I know I will!!!

I'm a WINNER

YAY guess what guys I WON!!
Jean was having a lil challenge on her blog...to guess the images she used and I was the first to comment!!! I can't wait to receive my winnings in the mail!

Isn't she the best...go check out her blog

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
