31 Days of Halloween - day 24

Welcome back to the Smeared & Smudged blog hop. Only one week left of all this Halloween fun! Don't forget there are still amazing prizes to be found each day! If you've enjoying visiting all the blogs on this hop and you haven't yet visited the Smeared & Smudged forum I encourage you to do so. All the people over there are super friendly and fun, you will be inspired every time you visit :) There are several different challenges to participate in every month also. For todays project I've created another ATC. I've been having so much fun with this mini-art form. This ATC also fits the theme "Monster Mash" over on the ATC Sisterhood challenge blog. I've used several stamps from the CTMH set Merry Monsters. I added the googlie eyes and lots of stickles and glitter glue. Aren't they cute little monsters?
Next stop on the Halloween hop is Ikes' World.
Don't forget to check out the ATC Sisterhood challenges too!

I would also like to enter this ATC into the challenge over at Wicked Wednesdays ATC Challenge.

31 Days of Halloween - day 10

So glad I came and peeked this morning as my auto post disappeared :( Sometimes I've had it not post but this time it was completely gone from my edit list.Anywho, here is an ATC for the Smeared & Smuged sponsored Halloween blog hop. I've been having so much fun! I started with a layer of black CS then ran orange CS thru my cuttle bug and smudged some black in ok it. I was lucky enough to be a winner on the blog hop last week so I've used one of the digi stamps from Rick St. Dennis. Isn't this bat creepy? I colored him with pencils and I added some orange glitter glue to his eyes and popped him up with foam tape.
You may have noticed that I love ATCs, well did you know that there is a fun ATC challenge blog that has a new challenge every other week? It's the ATC Sisterhood and the current theme is Orange and Black. We would love to have you come play with us!
Next stop on the hop.... Ikes' World.

ATC Sisterhood - Favorite Things Challenge

Hello my creative friends! This weeks challenge over at the ATC Sisterhood is to show us one of your favorite things. I had a few different ideas floating around my head but decided to go with stamps as my most favorite things!

I bought this woman and sentiment a while back from River City Rubber Works knowing that I wanted to use them together but hadn't gotten around to it yet. I wanted to keep it simple so I only used chocolate and sweet leaf inks from CTMH, and only colored in her skin with an ivory pencil and touched up her hair with brown. I stamped onto the white daisy CS and mounted onto sweet leaf CS. I've had the little stamp image from my beginning stamping days before I kept track of all the different vendors, you know way back before blogging was invented :)
We would love to see what one of your favorite things is so make sure to join us over at ATC Sisterhood and play along with us.

Thanks for stopping by!

31 Days of Halloween - day 10

I want to thank you all for visiting my blog, I'm having such a blast working on my projects for the Smeared & Smudged sponsored blog hop for October. You may have noticed that ATC's are one of my favorite items, I love them so much that I'm on the DT for the ATC Sisterhood. It's a fun challenge blog with a new challenge every other week. We would love to have you come over and play with us. Plus they are looking for members to be on the 2012 DT!!

I started with black CS then added a layer of orange CS that I ran thru my cuttle bug and then smudged with black ink. I was lucky enough to be a winner last week on the blog hop and won the digi set from Rick St Dennis, so I used the creepy bat colored him with pencils added some orange glitter glue to his eyes and used foam tape to lift him up from my ATC a little bit. I'm really excited with how this one turned out.
Keep on hopping. Next stop Ikes' World, then after the hop don't forget to come visit the ATC Sisterhood.
