HAUNTED DESIGN HOUSE CHALLENGE 118 - SHOT THROUGH THE HEART

Hello Lovely Peeps,
This week for Macabre Monday at Haunted Design House, the Challenge is to produce a creation with a heart and a hole. My creation is a total digi this week and has a heart - but it's full of holes... actually it's only the veins showing on most of it ... snort !!! 




Designer paper from Crafty Chaos Designs, Song lyrics curtesy of Bon Jovi :-D 
I hope you will come over to Haunted Design House and play and also look at the other Minions awesome creations :-) See you there xxxx

FAREWELL TO SMUDGY ANTICS DT :-(

Well, sad news or what ???!!! The current Design Team term at SMUDGY ANTICS has ended...boo hoo, sob, bawl :-(  I have had such a great time and it has really flown by. I would like to thank Tori and Terra for letting me create for them during this term. It has been a blast. xxxxxxxxxxxxx
This week your task is to use this sketch - you can flip it, turn it, whatever you fancy, so long as your creation still fits within the sketch outlines.
So, on to my farewell project. I decided to put loads of Smeared Ink images onto it just for the laugh. :-D  I've got a Grumpie, a Stitchy, a Fem Dom,  2 Heebie Jeebies, a Steampunk birdie - Bluebird Rider, Watchful Eye, Calypso the Rat, a Glam Vamp (get the Smeared Ink shirt !!) and a Zombie driving the snow plough... and of course... he's scraping a fair few Tildas out of the way to make way for the darker characters !!! LoL


Snow plough pikkie 'borrowed' from the Net. All Smeared Ink images (and Tildas)coloured digitally.
A big THANK YOU to Smudgy for letting me come and play and Farewell to all my DT chums.         Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

VERY SKETCHY CHALLENGE AT SMEARED & SMUDGED

Here is my Triptych for the Very Sketchy Challenge at Smeared & Smudged Forum. You can make a Triptych Card or there is a lovely Scrap Page Sketch too. This month's sponsor is IPPITY and the Prize is an $18 shopping coupon :-D 
For my card I have used 'Valentine papers' from Panda Bear Designs and Smeared Ink images from the 'Heebie Jeebies' Set - Cyclops, Mody5 and Kingston.


I used my Nesties with the bottom chopped off so it would stand up and my one and only TH distress ink. Everything has to be green 'cos it's the only one I have - it was a prezzie :-D xxx
Images are coloured with Copics and stuck on 3D with silicone glue. I think it works :-) !!

CDAC PROGRESSIVE CHALLENGE 10

I couldn't resist this image by JustInklined ... hilarious. I coloured the man with Copics and I 'paper pieced' the monkey using a photograph of real monkey fur. The backing paper and labels were from the Safari Kit by Catia Cunha at the Digital Scrap Cafe. I printed my sentiments on the labels in my graphics program. This is my first entry for the CDAC Progressive Challenge 10.

RUDOLPH DAY 2

Hello again,  and welcome to RUDOLPH DAY 2 LoL  How could I resist messing in pretty, pretty land with a semi - gory Chrimbo card ???? Hmmm ?? Well - I couldn't.  My friend made a comment about me having to have a lie down after my first Rudolph Day creation, so I guess she will, after I slap this baby on her Blog Challenge. Bwaaahahahahaha.  Her Blog is called STAMPING FOR PLEASURE






I have used "Serial Killer Santa" and his "Sack" from Smeared Ink and the corner peeping Dog is my own digi from a set of Christmas Corner dogs I did :-D


Come on now - rush over and join in and you could be getting your Chrimbo cards done at the same time as maybe winning a prize :-D :-D xxxx

QUOTH THE RAVEN - QUEST 2

Wow - we had some fabulous entries for our 1st Challenge over at Quoth The Raven and it's soooo cool that there are other POE lovers lurking out there. :-D     AMAZING !!
MANY CONGRATS TO OUR WINNER AND  OUR TOP 3  :-D
Well - this week the Quest is to make anything you like - so long as it includes somewhere on it an image of the Master.... Edgar Allan POE...... simples  eh ? !!
It can be a card/scrap page/ 3D item/ altered item/ journal page... anything you fancy.. so you've got no excuse for not having a go !!!
Here is mine for this week. I was playing with my Nesties and did a 2 layer one which I distressed with some TH ink. I have used my own digital stamp called 'POE SKULL BUST'. I coloured him with Copics and then scanned him back into the computer and printed him out 4 times. I then fussy cut him with my decoupage snips and layered him up with silicone glue.




Then I added a black feather and a little black bow at the top with a small hanger.


This week we have a wonderful Sponsor:


Come on Peeps - you know you want to have a go at this Challenge and you could win this fabulous prize .........

RUDOLPH DAY

Hello and welcome to RUDOLPH DAY LoL If you don't know what I'm on about, it's a scheme to make all your Chrimbo cards throughout the year instead of the last minute rush. !!! You make a card (or more than one) every month on 25th. I was inspired by this idea on the Blog of a funny friend of mine in cyberland who posts hilarious pictures of her chickens every Sunday... under the title of  "The Sunday Roast". It just makes me laugh and I have to go for my Sunday 'fix'..... you gotta go and see this !!!! Her Blog is called STAMPING FOR PLEASURE.
So - this week she is doing a little Challenge for Rudolph Day and I decided to play along. Here is my creation:






I wanted to do a mainly white card and have used my Nestie and a polka dot embossing folder for the backing. I printed this fabulous Polar Bear onto plain white card first. I added no colour to him at all. I attached the embossed piece with 4 little snowflake type brads and made some flowers with my Nellie Snellen punch/emboss, added some clear gems to the centre of my flowers and some foliage to finish. The main image is a Freebie from Gingerloft.

TALL, DARK & GRUESOME

Hi everyone,
I hope you are having a great day and that I'm not about to mess that up for you with this piece bwaahahahaha
This week at Smudgy Antics we were to design a piece under the title of Tall, Dark and Gruesome. I have used 'Anne-Marie' from the Glam Vamps Set by Smeared Ink (my .. she's popular this week... snort !!!)
Behind her - lurking in the depths - is one of my creations called the Deamon  and the Gothic Arch is one of mine too. Both available in my Shop.  This creation was produced in PSE9. The walls are photographs of a crypt in France. I have named this piece 'The Gateway to Hell'.
