OOOOOOOOOH - HALLOWEEN !!!

Hello scary Peeps,
Here we are at last at Halloween - such a pity we don't celebrate it in Greece :-(  Sob !!! :-(
I have been playing with stamps and red ink, so my hands look like I've murdered someone just now LoL
I have made a scary ATC and wanted to enter the Junk Funk Challenge over at SMEARED & SMUDGED FORUM, so my piece had to incorporate Q Tips/Cotton Buds... whatever you call them.

My background is from Crafty Chaos (no longer trading) and I tore the paper and edged with red Copic.

The main image is from the rubber stamp set "As Death" from SMEARED INK. I printed him and then scanned him into the computer so that I could resize him to ATC. I spritzed him with 'Fireworks' - Pan's Dust and Pink Sherbert alcohol ink, which matched my Q Tip sticks. I had to cut down and rewind ends on some of my Q Tips to make them fit, and then I dipped them into blood red ink and stuck them round for my border. Voila !

Now you know already that Smudgy Antics Blog has closed , so now everything is happening in the SMEARED & SMUDGED FORUM and we have many Challenges, Workshops, Tutorials and all sorts of fun stuff going on over there, so why not pop over and join us.

I can tell you that there are some AWESOME creations in the Photo Gallery.... just breathtaking stuff, so if you are in need of a bit of inspiration, then pop over HERE.

I've got some videos in the Mixed Media University too if you want a laugh :-D  My Teamies in there have been busy showing you tips and techniques, and you can see them  HERE.

I made the box with 4 pieces of card that were punched at both sides using my Martha Stewart Heart Punch. Scored and glued together and then topped with a lid and a flower from my stash.

Hi All,
                              
I have some news today.... I was asked to join the Design Team over at FUN WITH ATCs,  so today is my first outing with them in my official capacity :-)
Only one problem - I fell at the first hurdle and my DT entry was actually late !!!!!!!!  I definitely blame Yahoo Groups coz it wouldn't let me in :-(
The Theme this time for Challenge #95 is BLACK,WHITE & RED.
Anyhoo,  it gives me great pleasure to present to you my first official Fun With ATCs Design Team ATC........

This one was made using part of my 'As Death' Rubber Stamp Set from Smeared Ink. I cut the skull head out of the rest of the frame coz it would be too big for an ATC. He was heat embossed with sparkling black embossing powder and raised up on foamies. The Sentiment is from that set too, but I typed it out to make it smaller. The Font is called A Lollita Scorned. The spider is a Cricut beasty.  I followed a Sketch from over at Smeared & Smudged Forum.

I hope you will come over and play along with us at FUN WITH ATCs :-D
