Happy Halloweenie

The challenge this week at Sunday Stamper is "Monsters", I thought that's right up my alley, so I really, really had fun with this challenge. Can you find her heart? Do you see her orange sparkle nails? LOL, to much fun!!

I used the Watercolor Distress tech from the TJNL on the tag. Stamped using Tim's Halloween plate and added Rock Candy Stickles and Paint. The paint is just amazing, my first time using it! The bloody pearls around her neck are Dimensional Pearls by Ranger. Thanks again for lookin'....hugz

You're a Star...

My entry for the Stars challenge GC24, at Gingersnap Creations. If you haven't check out this group yet, please do, it's a great, fun group. Stamps are from BLine, isn't she lovely! I ran the white thru my BS using a Fiskars plate (I didn't even know I had one with swirls and stars, shame), sprayed with Glimmer Mist-Glacier and added Tim's film strip. Thanks for stoppin' by...hugz

Witch in a Bottle

My friend Hel's does the coolest art and her Sunday Stamper challenge this week is "Bottles & Messages". My Witch is done with the Cracked Glass tech from the TJNL, and the Bug folder is Cuttlebug Highlights, also TJNL. If you can't read my message it says "Delicious and Deadly, Contains One Angry, Carbonated Ghoul"! Just havin' fun! Thanks for stoppin'...hugz

Autumn Leaves

Just plain ol' stampin' with the Kitchen Sink Stamps gives results like this! Just amazing. I played with the colors on the layers a lot, adding color to only parts of the image, and another color or 2 to the other parts of the leaves. The fence is a new punch for me from MS, and the birds are punches also. Thanks for stoppin' in, hugz.....

Witches Love Bingo Too!

I had fun designing this card using the little witch from Vintage Halloween at Artistic Outpost. Witch is colored with Distress Ink refills using a water brush. The Bingo card has been done using...what else....the Bingo Blast tech from the TJNL, and has been distressed. I added some Spica pens to the web background paper and it doesn't show too well but there is a little red eyed spider on the free space made from shrink plastic! Now if I don't eat those Snicker bars I bought we'll be ok! hugz......

Halloween

I finally had time to take out my Halloween stash and play today. These are from the Vintage Halloween plate from Artistic Outpost. The background behind the pumpkin has been embossed with a Glimmer Screen from Tattered Angels, and sprayed with a couple of Glimmer Mists. I think I saw this done on the Spellbinders/Tattered Angels Blog, but am not sure. I've made several backgrounds, and they do turn out really great. I added some chalks to the embossing and edged with a Spica pen. The pumpkin was stamped on some actual Pumpkin paper that I picked up at my LSS, I like the look. The Boys' hat is colored with a Spica pen. I added some stickers and finished the card with the Burnt Edges technique from the TJNL.
