A SPOT OF SILLINESS

Me again,
I am in a daft mood and I just had a flash of inspiration when Lady B told me of a super site for FREE Word Art.......... Ginger's House
I had been looking for some inspiration to make a creation for the ROCK N ROLLA Challenge over at Smeared & Smudged Forum and I found just the thing :-D  Our inspiration was 'Earth Intruders' by Bjork, and then I found the word art on Ginger's Blog and the whole thing just made me snigger and I had to do this..........................

Did you get it ?? - eh?? -  eh??...  'so much'  hiding..... Oh well - never mind :-)

Hand and eyes images from the Anatomy 101 set from Smeared Ink.

12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS ......... DAY 11

Well, here we are... nearly at the end :-( Welcome to Day 11 of the 12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS with Smeared & Smudged. For my piece today I have used 'Kingston' and 'Cyclops' from the Heebie Jeebies set by Smeared Ink and also RIP Birdie from Tori. I took the liberty of renaming Cyclops to J'Oliver for my creation hee hee. All images were coloured digitally.

SMUDGY ANTICS CHALLENGE DESIGN TEAM PROJECT

Good Morning Peeps,
Here is my project as Smudgy Antics Design Team Member for this week's Challenge - "WICKED CHRISTMAS".

I have used 'Clarice' from the GLAM VAMP Set by Smeared Ink. These are just beautiful - not too scary, and you can dress them how you like. I coloured her digitally and then I 'paperpieced' her shirt, and then added that on top. (Actually - looking at it now I have got horizontal lines on her shirt a bit too close to horizontals on the window. I didn't notice that before, but it's done now !!)  I then made her Tree and Presents using images from 'GOTHIC CHRISTMAS' also by Smeared Ink. The presents come either plain or printed with bats, skulls and stuff and you colour them yourself. Cool eh ??!!  I added some 'bling' lights in my graphics programme. I love the Bat at the top of the tree. The sentiment was made also in my programme and I have set it all again my own digi called 'Gothic Window' (available in Shop)

I cut out the windows and set a snow scene behind. :-D

I hope you will come over to Smudgy Antics to see the other DT creations and maybe even join in the Challenge yourself :-D :-D    There are TWO weeks for this Challenge 'cos we are coming up to the busy time now.  xxxxxxx

I know it doesn't sound it, but it is, and she is real cute :-D    I coloured everything digitally and then it against an ItKuPiLli background that I messed with just a tad !! :-)

ACK !!  I asked for advice about her nose as I didn't think it was quite right, went to change it a bit,  and now the whole bloomin' thing is GONE !!! I can't remember what I put!!! I had 4 lovely comments too. :-(
Well, this is for the Challenge over at Smudgy Antics and I have used a new digi I drew yesterday that was inspired by 'Annabel Lee' by Edgar Allan POE.

12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS WITH SMEARED & SMUDGED.... DAY 6

Happy Sunday Everyone,
Here is my creation for Day 6 of the 12 Days of Christmas with Smeared & Smudged. I have used FREEBIE images from My Other Creative Side for this little Chrimbo whimsy, as I was in a jolly mood today :-D They are Georgina, Georgie and Happy Train and they are some of the fabulous FREE images that Lady E has been creating. I must admit, I did cheat a bit and use the pre-coloured ones she gave but the backing took a bit of time and I am in the middle of shedloads of other stuff to finish.  Lady E has a fairly new Blog and you must go over and have a look at her great images. :-D  Backing papers were also a free download and bits of ribbon from my stash.

12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS ... DAY 4

Hello & welcome to 12 Days of Christmas from Smeared & Smudged - Day4.
Today I have altered a little box - a friend of mine smokes these little cigar thingies which come in dinky little boxes, so I snagged a few of them ages ago, and they've been sitting waiting to be 'made-over' ever since. I lined the inside with kitchen foil and covered the outside with Christmas paper. I then coloured and cut out my only Grumpie from Smeared Ink and stuck him inside - propping up the lid, and attached some ribbon to hang with.  Et voila !.... a Christmas Tree Decoration.

I hope you will visit the other JOLLY BLOGGERS to view their marvelous creations. The list is on the right over here ----------------------------->>>>>

BLING

Hello,
Today I made a creation for the 'BLING' Challenge over at Paper Creations Ink. Sara has got a fabulous sponsor this time - MIRANDA VAN DEN BOSCH - and she has drawn some awesome fairies which are the prize for this Challenge AND I just HAVE to win one :-D They are gorgeous. I have been lucky enough to be chosen as GDT at Paper Creations Ink for January 2012 and am very excited about that. :-D
So, I got out one of my Mandala stamps for this tree decoration. I stamped it 7 times and cut out the pieces. Then I spent a couple of days finely putting glue in all the right bits and adding glitter. I am now covered in the stuff and it's everywhere. LoL Great effect though, even if it is a lot of work. I was thinking I might make another one to stick on the back of this, so if it swivels on the tree it'll look the same both sides......... but maybe not. Got loads of other stuff to do :-) I really tried to get good photos of this but it's soooo hard with all the glitter and I can't really get it in it's true glory. :-( Here it is anyhow ....

12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS ... DAY 3

Waaahh !! PINK - I hear you scream. Well, I told you I had been feeling ill recently :-D  I did creep it up a little though with a 'Watchful Eye' rosette. He's from Smeared Ink - of course. My main image I did using a little clear stamp I won recently as a huge stash of blog candy :-D  Yay - me !!!  , which I believe is a Simply Betty image. I coloured her with markers and then scanned her into the computer, to make her a bit bigger 'cos she's a teensy little thing. Good and quick for colouring though :-)  DP is from my stash and I can't remember where I got them - think they were freebies about 4 years back !! I embossed a bit of pink card and skritted it with sandpaper, then had just a smidge of matching ribbon for the bottom. Ta-Dah xx

HERE KITTY, KITTY

Here is something I just am playing with now. I've been doing a lot of POE inspired digis and I can't seem to stop at the moment LoL. I was inspired by the story 'The Black Cat' by POE. This was done using one of my new POE digis I have just created.  I coloured him digitally. Not sure if I'm totally finished with it yet :-D xxxx

I'm going to put him in the POE ME Challenge over at Smudgy Antics.

Hi Peeps,
Having a bit of fun this week...... I got some amazing Sassy Studio images and I'm in a bit of a zany mood, so here is a little Chrimbo creation I have come up with. The main image is the gorgeous 'Masquerade 1' from Sassy Studios. The cauldron is from their 'Halloween Accessories' set. I have coloured them both digitally.

POE ME

Hello Everyone,
This week over at Smudgy Antics, our theme is 'POE ME' - as in Edgar Allan POE. :-)
Your task is to create something using POE images or words or anything to do with him that takes your fancy.
I decided to make a little lampshade and stand. It is all made from cardstock and a kitchen roll tube.
I have chosen 'The Telltale Heart' as my written piece. I printed some of the words onto paper and then splashed some blood over it. I then tore and distressed my paper with chalks.  I then made a sort of flat decoupage of images of POE and ravens and I also used 'Cracked Heart' from the Heart Wings set by Smeared Ink.  All my images were torn out and distressed before being stuck on. I've taken a couple of shots 'cos it was difficult to show everything. :-)

I hope you will come over to Smudgy Antics and join us :-D

FOREVER NIGHT CHALLENGE

Hello Peeps,
I have made this for the Freaky Friday Challenge over at Forever Night. The theme is called "No Way Around It" and your project has to have a circle somewhere on it. Their sponsor this week is Stamping Dragon Designs and I have used my new papers and images from Stamping Dragon .... the 'Christmas Morn' set and put it with 'Santa Snail', which is their image in support of The Ear Trust, but I 'Steampunked' him up a bit with some cogs, since Forever Night is supposed to be a bit Goth/Dark/Steampunky :-D I hope this counts for an entry.  L0L. 

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Here's a little piece using 'Tom Turkey' who is a FREEBIE over at The Crafter's Cafe - Thanksgiving Challenge. He just made me laugh when I saw him, so I HAD to use him. I coloured him digitally.
