Let it snow!

This is the card I made for the December sketch challenge over on Smeared and Smudged. This Russian winterelf was a freebie from Tom's Blog. Isn't he lovely :) I've colored him with pencils and have added lots of glitter to the fur on his coat.

More Steampunk

Was home from work today with a sick child so I had some time to stamp :) This is one of my new Steampunk Misses images I purchased from The Octopode Factory. Isn't she fabulous!?!

I used my cuttlebug folder again (clockworks) and then inked it up so y'all could see the texture. Made some more of the flowers that are my current obsession and then misted them with some medival gold Glitz Spritz. The DP is from CTMH and I colored her with pencils. I will be entering this in the Smeared & Smudged sketch challenge for November.

Thanks for visiting!

QKD 3 day challenge

Hello my friends! Queen Kat Designs is having a fun little challenge on her FB page and there is still time to join in, you have until Wednesday so hurry and get your supplies out! You need to create 3 different projects and follow the daily theme. The first theme is "fruit". So I've made this card with a cute little image from QKD, (you get extra points if you use an image from QKD) and I've used cheery B&T as my fruit. I've used a sketch from the smeared and smudged forum .

The next theme is "in the shade". I immediately thought of this image from Simply Betty Stamps. I just recently got her and hadn't had the opportunity to play with her yet. Isn't she amazing with her little bat bikini! I cut her out and glued her down before I thought of adding a sentiment so when I found the perfect one I didn't have room on the outside so the sentiment (from CTMH) inside says "summertime.... and the livin' is easy". The third theme is "summer tide" and we were to include the color blue. I've used another QKD image. I won her on one of the FB new release nights, you should really check those out they are lots of fun and you can win stamps!!! Anywho, I stamped her in dutch blue and then colored her in with different shades of blue pencils. I used a blue gel pen to add some brightness to her hair and some of her scales and some glitter glue on her crown and beads. You can't really see in the picture, we are having an overcast day so I didn't have enough sunshine to take a proper picture.
I used glimmer mist and a stencil to create the background then added little dots of blue gel pen and glitter glue so it wasn't so plain. The sentiment is from CTMH.

Thanks for stopping by! Dont forget to hurry and join in the fun all entries due Wednesday!!

Rock 'N' Rolla Inspiration

Over at the Smeared and Smudged forum the Rock 'n' Rolla challege for December was the video Brick by Boring Brick by Paramore Check it out so you can understand my card :)

I inked up my card with a grey stamp pad (direct to paper) which kind of gave me bricks (like the castle) but I added some lines to make them smaller and more brick like. The swirl I used for the vine and the flower are both from CTMH, the little girl with butterfly wings is from Lost Coast. I added glitter glue to her dress (which you really can't see here), but thought it was cool that the picture came out with a couple of the sparkles glowing just like the video. The frame is from smearedink and that's for the mirrors in the video.

~happy stamping~
