She's Everything

here is a neclace/ box set I made inspired by the SlipKnot video "Vermillion Pt 1" this is the 2nd video for the Smeared Ink Forum

here is an image from the video

and here is what I made

I took a small gift box and glued my image onto it, the image is from Tiddly Inks and I colored her with water colors then I put UTEE on in it to make it super shiny....I then took a domino painted it with silver and again put UTEE on it...this time I did like 4-5 coats and then stuck a butterfly stamp in it and let it cool then removed my stamp and put some black in on it. I took one of my vials that I got from Smeared Ink and put a green butterfly in it....he wouldn't hold still for the pic;) I'm giving this to my sis for her b-day I hope she likes it... oh next to the image it says "she is everything and more" from the song...

Some hearts

I hope you all are having a fab monday! the weekend is so far away:( but its a new month soon and that means Christmas....which means in my home the Grinch! I love that movie!!! good ol' cartoon classics:)
over at Simply Betty Challenges the challenge is to create your best Grinch-mas card...and here is mine!

" Some hearts can't grow 3 sizes my dear!"

Christmas Willow

I hope you all are having a great sunday night! I just had to post this card I made using my new Digi....she is a lil Christmas Lolita and her name is Willow....I have had so much fun coloring her that you are going to see her again very shortly!


this card is for the challenge over at the Lil Lolita Boutique Challengs and it is a sketch challenge...I love these I think sketches are my fave!

I colored her with markers and used CTMH papers...the quote is from create with TLC.... this is my first time entering in one of the LLB challenges so....cross your fingers for me=)

also there is an anything Christmas goes challenge over at Stamp it Crazy so this is going there too...

Joy angel

here is a card I created for the Burtonesque Dolls sketch this week

I used my symbology of Angels stamp set from Smeared and Smudged, I colored his wings and added glitter, I cut him out some underpants and stamped the word joy in white paint and added some denim..I really didn't want a whole lot going on behind him because I wanted him to stand out...and I didn't add to much frill because I wanted a very manly card.....I love these stamps and I can't wait for next month...I have some really cool ideas for them!!

I'm afraid

here is a lil something I made inspired by the music video "I'm afraid of Americans" by Bowie and NIN.... this is the rock n rolla challenge this month over at the Smeared and Smudged forum

here is my project

and here is the video


I used stamponique images and made them look like the guys from the video, I wrote it in yellow because of the Taxi...I think...I donno I just saw yellow when making this=) I used my cuttle bug and embossing folder on red paper for the background...then painted it with dark blue streaks and filed it to get some white to show threw, I hand wrote my title to kinda give it a rugged look, I then added the red white and blue jems this was way fun to make and its going to hang in my craft room=)

Over at the Stampotique designers challenge blog the challenge is to use bling

Christmas Angelica

over at Simply Betty Challenges they are doing a 12 days of Christmas with the simply betty twist...today's challenge is to use a Halloween image and make a Christmas card! now that's my kinda challenge...they had such cute ideas from the DT I just had to play along!
