<div style="text-align: center;">
I have such wonders to share with you using <b><a href="https://www.oddballartco.com/" target="_blank">Oddball stamps</a></b>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Most of my makes include the <b><a href="https://www.oddballartco.com/creepy-cute-chronicles" target="_blank">Creepy Cute Chronicles </a></b>freebie images.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And to further prove my point that you should join the exclusive</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
members club, I'm using some of the <b><span style="color: cyan;">exclusive images</span></b> as well.<br />
<br />
There are plenty of prizes to be won, including two free memberships to<br />
the <b><a href="https://www.oddballartco.com/creepy-cute-chronicles" target="_blank">Creepy Cute Chronicles Exclusive Members club </a></b>for one year.<br />
And to top it all off, I am personally offering a<br />
<b><span style="color: cyan;">$20 Oddball Art Co </span></b>gift certificate and a handmade card. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All you need to do to be entered is leave a comment on each of the<br />

She worked really hard on this!<br />
All winners will be chosen and announced on<br />
December 23rd.<br />
<br />
Without further ado...<br />

Gah! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Another Halloween season is behind me, and I couldn't feel less </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
accomplished in pretty much every aspect of my life. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I guess that's why I feel so deeply honored to be asked to</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
create for <b><span style="color: magenta;">Lizzy</span></b> of <b><a href="https://www.oddballartco.com/" target="_blank">Oddball Art Co.</a></b> It has been just the nudge </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I needed to get going creatively again. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGFDw6pSH-aR-Q4n3oenjarlJ3z4-p1Lp4JnsyhuBrPWzDhDz_1CY2jc6SbA5MUFKSRLRaLukdBEWOIw3inczJ4aWTZMxg69lbWtR4IOrUGWsRwAwXMCdvgpEkJhvhASMrhwBgu-E29AE/s1600/oddballwitchplaque.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1067" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGFDw6pSH-aR-Q4n3oenjarlJ3z4-p1Lp4JnsyhuBrPWzDhDz_1CY2jc6SbA5MUFKSRLRaLukdBEWOIw3inczJ4aWTZMxg69lbWtR4IOrUGWsRwAwXMCdvgpEkJhvhASMrhwBgu-E29AE/s400/oddballwitchplaque.jpg" width="266" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I mean, how can you NOT be inspired by this artwork?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Since really embracing my inner witchiness, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
these kind of images really resonate with me.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This little witch beauty and her accessories </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
are the November <b><a href="https://www.oddballartco.com/creepy-cute-chronicles" target="_blank">Creepy Chronicles Monthly Exclusive</a></b> set</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
just for premium subscribers at<b> <a href="https://www.oddballartco.com/" target="_blank">Oddball Art Co</a>.</b>. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I already had a completed canvas board with a great texture</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and crackle finish painted, and ready to go.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It paired perfectly with a spiderweb doily and the</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
images from this awesome stamp set. And then it was </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
obvious that I needed to cut up a TH quote chip.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I sanded the edges, and then inked them using oxide inks</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
which gave them just the finish I was looking for. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Lastly, I added some bling and sparkle, some TH clips,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
a chain, and some of my favorite and coveted Halloween ribbon.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Oh?! Did I forget to mention that I mounted her head</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
on an action wobble thingy? Well, I did, and it's perfect!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Thanks for stopping by.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Stay tuned for more Halloween makes, as I'm not even remotely </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
ready to start the Yule season. </div>

The weekly chronicles freebie this week is this fabulous Mer-Witch.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I had to color her up with Copics, as its my chosen medium to color with.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I tried to stay away from my standard orange, lime green, purple, and black</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
color scheme, but failed. I just don't see Halloween in any other colors. </div>

I also don't usually "do" scenes, but this little lady was just too</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
perfect to fussy cut out of her underwater lair. She comes in a set of</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
images which you can arrange any way you'd like, or use her already in</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the scene as shown. She comes with lots of accessories and even a friend. </div>

I am still on my Nuvo drops kick. I used the green translucent drops</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
for her potion bubbles. And some White Blizzard glitter drops for some</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Lastly, I mounted the colored panel onto some black card stock</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and added a sentiment from my Halloween sentiment collection. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I actually have an entire binder full of just Halloween words.</div>

It's a sickness, but one I don't mind suffering from.</div>

I've been busy with the chaos of life, but managed to find the time</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to get some coloring done.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was inspired by this Oddball Art Stamp, and then just went with it,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and actually produced a card for Halloween.</div>

I managed to work in a cupcake liner and an old Glow Skull from back in the day. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I finally figured out that if you cut into the cupcake liner like fringe, it will lay</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
flat. I've been struggling for far too long on that issue.</div>

I also used some seriously vintage paper and adhesive border from my ridiculously</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
overstocked Halloween stash. And my new thing is to add Nuvo drops to everything.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I added the drops in White Blizzard, but they turned turquoise on the black liner. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I like it. </div>

Since it's been so long since I've colored anything, some of my Copics are</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
trying to dry out. I thought I'd check my even more neglected Zig watercolor markers,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and lo' and behold, they're still just as juicy as the day I bought them!</div>

After my rudimentary attempt at water coloring, I decided to color</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
in the background using a black Copic marker. No way was I going to risk</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
ruining everything at this point by trying to watercolor in between the ghosties. </div>

I found the perfect sentiment from a retired Kraftin' Kimmie </div>

rubber stamp set, and stamped it onto vellum to keep the ghostly feel.</div>

Long time no see, huh?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The last couple of years have really screwed up my crafting and creating.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And then it seems like the more I want to get back to creating, the more</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
shit life throws at me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I received an invite from Lizzy at<span style="font-size: large;"> <b><a href="https://www.oddballartco.com/" target="_blank">Oddball Art Stamps </a></b></span>to play along </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
this week using the new<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"> Poison Posies</span></b> image she created using </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
my idea from a past facebook poll on her <b><a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/1379950712303435/" target="_blank">fb page</a></b>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This was just the kick in the tush I needed to get my Copics out and start</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
coloring my life again!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

This image is so much more than I had hoped for!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So pretty, and wonderfully weird, and creepy, all at the same time.</div>

Win, win, win!</div>

I used the image with the blank banner so I could add my own</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
words. Which I instantly regretted after seeing my finished scribblings.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I was hoping for some beautiful script to fall out of my pen, but that </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
takes practice, which I haven't been doing. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Ultimately, I am thrilled with this card and how it turned out.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Considering I haven't been crafting much, this doesn't suck at all.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Well, except for the hand lettering...<br />I added a die cut I have had for years, but never used until now. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I think it works, along with some black Nuvo drops.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Luckily, my niece is a creeper just like her Aunt, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and she will love this card for her birthday. <b> </b></div>

It is so weird to be back here blogging again.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's been far too few and in between posts over the last year. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sadly, it's seems like the blogs are a thing of the past. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Fewer and fewer views as the months roll past. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But to enter some challenges it is still necessary to blog </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
about your project in order to enter.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Fair enough. I kind of miss sharing my makes </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
via the 'old fashioned' way. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

screaming to be made into something beautiful.</div>

I have been bugging Lizzy as to when she was going to unveil the </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Virgo Girl in her Zodiac line of digital images. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Wait no more! She is gorgeous!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I had to color her up immediately after buying her, but then she lived on</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
my desk for a couple of weeks until inspiration struck. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I've been getting in touch with my witchy side, and have found </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
my love affair with the moon something to be celebrated.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I picked up a great paper pad at HL that is all about galaxies,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and unicorns and moons. I swooned when I saw it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I took one sheet of each 12 X12 design and trimmed them all down </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
to 6 x 6 sheets. So much easier to get proper use out of the pad this way. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I started layering die cuts, and found a great inspirational sentiment</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
to go with my Virgo page. I used the green die cut webbing and the</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
sparkly green spider to help move your eye around the page and balance out</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the green from the her sash. I added my new love, Jewel Drops from Nuvo in </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Key lime. I am loving how this turned out!!</div>

Just had to squeeze in one more card before the month is over.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This time I used an <b><a href="https://www.oddballartco.com/shop" target="_blank">Oddball Art Co. </a></b>stamp.</div>

I'm still trying to catch up on all of my thank you cards from the holidays.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I try to make each one with the recipient in mind.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I knew the second I saw this image that I wanted to make a card </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
for my dear friend, Nel with it. She was showing off her newest tattoo </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
at my New Year's Day open house. It was a mash up of the Death Star</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and a Mickey head. She designed it herself. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used some Oddball digi papers from the <b><a href="https://www.oddballartco.com/product-page/digital-paper-10pc-space-skulls-8-5-x-11-300dpi-by-lizzy-love" target="_blank">Space Skulls</a></b> set. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I printed it out onto some sparkly paper and it looks amazing!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Goes perfectly with this awesome image of <b><a href="https://www.oddballartco.com/product-page/digital-stamp-princessleia-starwars-tribute-301" target="_blank">Princess Leia #301</a>.</b> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I made the "thank you's" myself ,and used some distress oxide inks</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to kind of match the background paper.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'd like to enter this card in the current challenge at <b><a href="https://oddballstamps.blogspot.com/2019/01/january-oddball-challenge.html" target="_blank">Oddball Art Co.</a></b></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I colored the balloons in my favorite color combo, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and then fussy cut them out so I could play with their</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
arrangement more, and give them dimension with foam tape. </div>
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Lastly, I glued some baker's twin onto the back of each balloon,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and gathered them behind an inked TH quote chip.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Also, double points for using the TH packaging as my background paper.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I just distressed it a bit with some paint splatter and distress inks.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love the spider web design in the Halloween packaging. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The hoarder who lives in my craft room forbid me to throw it out.</div>

I just couldn't resist making one last Creepmas card.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And it seems fitting that it features an <b><a href="https://www.oddballartco.com/shop" target="_blank">Oddball Art Stamp</a></b> image.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I colored this little puppy/deer using Copic markers.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used a die cut scalloped oval frame and popped it up</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
on foam dots to give some depth between the frame and the image.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Lastly, I used one of my favorite products of the year, <b>Nuvo</b> drops.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I don't know why, but I love this stuff. I only have 18 colors so far,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but that <i><b>might</b></i> be enough for now.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'd like to enter this card in the following challenge:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is going to do it for me for 2018.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This year has not been kind, but I have learned quite a bit,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
so it's not a completely cruel joke. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am hopeful for the coming year, and will set my focus on making </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
it the very best that I can. </div>

I don't know about you, but that title sounds like a great</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Christmas movie. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And by great, I mean watchable since I will watch damn near</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
any scary movie that is on TV. Case in point, I just sat through</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2 1/2 hours of 'The House That Jack Built', starring Matt Dillon as a serial killer.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
BORING! There were a few scenes worth watching (see taxidermy scene), but</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
overall a total snooze fest. Then there's 'Mandy", starring Nicolas Cage. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was left thinking and audibly asking, "WTF did I just watch?".</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Makes me give 'The Nun' another star. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Which brings that total up to three stars now.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Okay, back to my card...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Doesn't this just make you all warm and fuzzy inside?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
No? Just me then. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I began my creative foray by coloring this killer <b><i><a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/646239946/horned-snowman?ref=shop_home_feat_4" target="_blank">Horned Snowman</a></i></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
image from <b><a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/InkedArtistAvenue#items" target="_blank">Inked Artist/Hellgnome Death Digis</a> </b>. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used Copic markers for my coloring of the snowman.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I just can't seem to use anything else to color with these days.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My Zigs are missing me...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I took some designer paper that resembles wooden planks,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and used some Dylusions sprays in Cherry Pie and Post Box Red for </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
blood splatter. This guy looks kind of messy, so I splattered him as well. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used a die cut from the same paper pad and splattered that with</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Dylusions sprays also. These reds are perfect for blood splatter.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Just sayin'... </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I popped everything onto some black card stock using foam tape</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
on the snowman and his festive sign.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I managed to find some still intact Xmas candy to use as props</div>

for my photo shoot. I like it.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I couldn't resist playing with some of the CCC freebies, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
like this simple, yet perfect holiday image from CCC#27. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Such a fun and easy gate fold card with a Stickled and stitched die cut, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
some snowflakes, and some white Nuvo drops.</div>

This is one of two images in this set of versatile digis<b><a href="https://www.oddballartco.com/product-page/digital-stamp-whimsical-dancing-trees-set-4-image-no-339" target="_blank"> #339</a></b>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I paired this one with a simple gold embossed sentiment and gold pearls.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The vibrant Copic coloring really pops against the black.</div>

Same thing for this one, but I used silver embossing with a different</div>

sentiment, and silver pearls and rhinestones for accents. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
backed onto some very busy, yet complimentary paper. Black Nuvo drops</div>

Lastly, I couldn't resist these wacky critters from CCC#14 that I merged with</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the jar in digi set <b><a href="https://www.oddballartco.com/product-page/digital-stamp-whimsical-mason-jars-fireflies-jar-full-of-dreams-image-no-447" target="_blank">#447</a></b>. I added their names onto the tags as well.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I added some iridescent Nuvo drops on the fronts, backed the tags onto </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
black cardstock for stability and contrast, and strung them with baker's twine.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used a white gel pen to add the "To: and From:" on the back of each tag.</div>

I'm back again guest designing for <b><a href="https://www.oddballartco.com/" target="_blank">Oddball Art Stamps</a></b> this month!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm sharing a project today that is totally new for me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
First off, it requires <b>NO</b> coloring. Yup, I said it. <b>No coloring at all.</b><br />
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have used the adorable and beautifully vibrant, pre-colored bottle cap art found <b><a href="https://www.oddballartco.com/digi-bottlecaps" target="_blank">here</a></b>. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have had the bottle caps for quite some time, and in an attempt to destash a bit, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and make a few Christmas gifts, I decided to give it a go.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8AbZ9bnzl1rx_uzrORrMgmKsVlvOeh2xxNjfiW4NLkn6PFJCO4xcSw8Y0x32DWBEwI65_qBz0_1BaGzvEhT_nZXdES0sBXC4lm0EWas1PNbKtVde5DDpql5wFz4XLUOOngM8tDKDiaGk/s1600/005.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8AbZ9bnzl1rx_uzrORrMgmKsVlvOeh2xxNjfiW4NLkn6PFJCO4xcSw8Y0x32DWBEwI65_qBz0_1BaGzvEhT_nZXdES0sBXC4lm0EWas1PNbKtVde5DDpql5wFz4XLUOOngM8tDKDiaGk/s400/005.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I began by printing out the bottle cap art and punching out the owls with a 1" circle punch.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used regular printer paper first, but found that photo paper works much better with the</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
lacquer as you will see in a minute.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikNRrq-ym21GhPU7cHI100XZatqXm4-9SfgjUdOTP6AfnpwlhO79uPvhn75MHAULY_tpjM04HFIzcYLKo7fn0xhyphenhyphenVyviWIPnseY6-u8q_L27rjQi0i5XPLmMMvpKTMHDipKUKDW2fQQjY/s1600/006.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1200" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikNRrq-ym21GhPU7cHI100XZatqXm4-9SfgjUdOTP6AfnpwlhO79uPvhn75MHAULY_tpjM04HFIzcYLKo7fn0xhyphenhyphenVyviWIPnseY6-u8q_L27rjQi0i5XPLmMMvpKTMHDipKUKDW2fQQjY/s400/006.JPG" width="300" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I also had some tiny caps, so I punched those out with a 1/2" punch, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
only using the owls faces. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I added holes to the small caps with my piercing tool and a hammer.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMiFzfQOUgxsZ9qVo0_sWK3uLU_Aecspble2DiwtWOFhjxpmhAXFEW72QuPGbfQI6m6KrI1rps-J4BqGDUuz8AO5Sk2pYtJ-ur1dQnlo4Dp-QLUQo3HDuRrjRTKY1xCPDhwhL0ePmezKY/s1600/008.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1200" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMiFzfQOUgxsZ9qVo0_sWK3uLU_Aecspble2DiwtWOFhjxpmhAXFEW72QuPGbfQI6m6KrI1rps-J4BqGDUuz8AO5Sk2pYtJ-ur1dQnlo4Dp-QLUQo3HDuRrjRTKY1xCPDhwhL0ePmezKY/s400/008.JPG" width="300" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now for some bling! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWE0Vkxzk_8COjGEjTdQ_86e-H4b2y_MmvcT9eGMA_Ftxu2emTVh7Y90wtsFOejcNJ33sv6eQ-m3KZV8DVROiU2rbpRNanjQJNPdJJxI4lrYC0x1_bR0_HT7y9YFqH-GXZpl9RHlu8E6c/s1600/010.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWE0Vkxzk_8COjGEjTdQ_86e-H4b2y_MmvcT9eGMA_Ftxu2emTVh7Y90wtsFOejcNJ33sv6eQ-m3KZV8DVROiU2rbpRNanjQJNPdJJxI4lrYC0x1_bR0_HT7y9YFqH-GXZpl9RHlu8E6c/s400/010.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I added various glitters and sparkly stuff to the images for sparkle and interest. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwpjCaE10Qmgz2yPRuRM2PPtI_1l1ykfopSrBiYXD_K2JsD24YcgvVfkvsWcvS0juHE1xQfgZ-guwbtrl05w_XovwXv7Pmt6MG3uQQ3jq0qbdmxFAtdbDcte0V8Us3ru9ZCpdcytj9pz8/s1600/014.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwpjCaE10Qmgz2yPRuRM2PPtI_1l1ykfopSrBiYXD_K2JsD24YcgvVfkvsWcvS0juHE1xQfgZ-guwbtrl05w_XovwXv7Pmt6MG3uQQ3jq0qbdmxFAtdbDcte0V8Us3ru9ZCpdcytj9pz8/s400/014.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Lots of tweezer action happening here.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8M8G-QbLtkyCr4KOO8AvF6fXvmFaJfjP7tEO9aypWrrKULyT5jlBoPGomzzi7eY-Id6MYDJq9X-4YGq8G8CR7GoM7dHnb-e6qAEcCjZM1F6JY3TPTNP3pYwNdhI4MQtMgDj28b7ypfgY/s1600/017.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8M8G-QbLtkyCr4KOO8AvF6fXvmFaJfjP7tEO9aypWrrKULyT5jlBoPGomzzi7eY-Id6MYDJq9X-4YGq8G8CR7GoM7dHnb-e6qAEcCjZM1F6JY3TPTNP3pYwNdhI4MQtMgDj28b7ypfgY/s400/017.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Lastly, I added 3D laquer to the caps to seal in all that gorgeousness.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This was actually my first attempt at this project, and in my second attempt I used</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
much less laquer and got a smoother finish, which I prefer.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Once dry, I added some ridiculously strong magnets onto the backs. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
These could also be used a pendants, but I figured someone might get </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
more use out of magnets. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I attached the caps together to give them some movement,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and added a rhinestone charm. More bling never hurts, right?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7pRseW5PQ8599UYAbPZ3FZ6wu5PHUrDxT85pEPIRhe8uAYqfGfcn7e4NUZL6NUZsf56oY2VHzVXsxVQbCvRSmBD0hPV6Y8i1ckNe3tSPrZvnwhhV7yHbVFrmI00-DKnJBoJ5UkKrA4Ss/s1600/20181214_092618.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1298" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7pRseW5PQ8599UYAbPZ3FZ6wu5PHUrDxT85pEPIRhe8uAYqfGfcn7e4NUZL6NUZsf56oY2VHzVXsxVQbCvRSmBD0hPV6Y8i1ckNe3tSPrZvnwhhV7yHbVFrmI00-DKnJBoJ5UkKrA4Ss/s400/20181214_092618.jpg" width="323" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here is a good comparison on the difference between using photo paper</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
versus regular copy paper. The lacquer really bleaches out the image to the point</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
where it looks like a totally different image.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

First off, I began by creating my own galaxy background using Distress Oxide inks.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Splashed some water drops on it, dried it, and splattered some white Dylusions spray</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to create the idea of a galaxy. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I fussy cut everybody out, and removed the meteor from the spaceship entirely.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The beauty of working with digis and fussy cutting. I can remove parts of</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the image easily to help the flow or layout of my project. I'm not very good </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
at using masks to do this with rubber stamps, but find it easy to do this way. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I popped the space dude and his hose up a bit with foam tape. I also added some </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Nuvo glitter drops in silver moondust.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Kept it super simple this time.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I colored this bad boy up with Copics and matted it onto silver card stock.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I added a few more white dots, and tried my hand at using blending fluid</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
to add spots in the gray areas. That's kind of scary to do after you've colored</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
an entire image. Probably won't do that too often.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Finally, I added the word, 'SEEK' and this dog is ready to hunt. </div>

Man, it has been far too long since I've blogged about what I've been creating.<br />

In a nutshell, I've spent the last few weeks preparing for my very first vendor</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
spot at a local horror convention. I've been painting my ass of and working with </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
polymer clay again, in the hopes of selling everything and making a huge profit</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
on all of my hard work. These are my people, after all.<br />

Well, I guess the people with money didn't get the memo.<br />
There was a two day music festival in town that weekend. Most of the vendors<br />
didn't do very well, and some of us chose to blame our lack of sales on this single fact.<br />
And the fact that we as vendors are competing for sales against awesome celebrities<br />
who charge a small fortune for their photos and autographs.<br />
Sacramento isn't quite the financial mecca that can sustain both types of spenders.<br />
Either, or folks.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyhoo, it was a great experience, and I met some of the most amazing creatives.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is so nice to be surrounded by like minded people who speak my language of</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
art and horror. I may try my luck again in June. This time I'll spend more time on<br />
my original pieces. Live and learn.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Hey, hey, hey!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Look who's guest designing for<span style="font-size: large;"> <b><a href="https://aurorawingschallenge.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Aurora Wings</a></b></span>!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am thrilled to be playing along with the amazing DT and being</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
a part (if only temporarily) of one of the best design teams out there.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Mitzi is an amazing artist to design for.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcPiQo6Tga8eBAb-HaNQm5dvGI-FrPEFBwugUIVImPlZbSwu5IeqcJr8M1hjfAf2r1SXIOJAaAMz_Cg2EnOTulqi_KUQt3o32wQ3geyoo53hG4TmY0mFTB2oPqfkNt3svv7kS0MmUR7_c/s1600/20180728_181512.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1586" data-original-width="1600" height="396" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcPiQo6Tga8eBAb-HaNQm5dvGI-FrPEFBwugUIVImPlZbSwu5IeqcJr8M1hjfAf2r1SXIOJAaAMz_Cg2EnOTulqi_KUQt3o32wQ3geyoo53hG4TmY0mFTB2oPqfkNt3svv7kS0MmUR7_c/s400/20180728_181512.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have the extreme pleasure of working with one of the newest sprites,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the <b><a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/616073594/png-succulent-sprite-aurora-wings?ref=shop_home_feat_1" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: large;">Succulent Sprite</span></a></b>!! Isn't she just too die for? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So beautifully rendered and on trend right now.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The current challenge is a sketch, which I find so helpful with designing.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Takes most of the guess work out of it for me. I tend to get caught up in the </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
minutia of laying out a design, more than anything.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used quite a few reference photos of succulents to choose my palette,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
which was nearly the death of me. Sooo many options, but not sure how to </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
actually achieve what Mother Nature painted so beautifully with my</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
measly old Copic markers. I managed to pull it off pretty well, I think.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love how the clear Nuvo Drops give such great texture to her String of Pearls.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
After I finished coloring and embellishing her, I started working on the background.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I glued a sheet of burlap to a corrugated cardboard substrate, and gessoed the entire</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
piece. After it was dry I used a stencil and some crackle paste to add interest and depth.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Once dry, I spritzed it with Lindy's sprays hoping to capture some iridescence on </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the crackle. I think it looks like lace for the most part, which adds to the</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
shabby chic feel I was going for. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgI8o27I_7in7rBwHsg1ZomXyykXP_hxsmIEctY3b32SB0iELFAjYV-_Jr3vWEp1j0OXNxELI1F2969FYhXdNI1CgeZAkvEfNpjuzQpbZOeSxxwWLkeZJSNWM7634EeA1hoJVNFCyAwRXE/s1600/20180728_181425.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1597" data-original-width="1600" height="398" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgI8o27I_7in7rBwHsg1ZomXyykXP_hxsmIEctY3b32SB0iELFAjYV-_Jr3vWEp1j0OXNxELI1F2969FYhXdNI1CgeZAkvEfNpjuzQpbZOeSxxwWLkeZJSNWM7634EeA1hoJVNFCyAwRXE/s400/20180728_181425.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Following the sketch, I arranged my flowers, doo-dads, and pearly bits</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
around the colorful focal image. With the addition of an easel back, this</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
creation is complete!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I had a pre-made Color Burst background all ready to go, and I liked</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the contrast of the unconventional colors. I mounted the background </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
onto black cardstock and tried to keep the rest of the card fairly simple. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I added some sparkly, iridescent sequins to act as bubbles, and I was done.</div>

I made it back again this week with a cute set of cards </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I made using some new <b><a href="https://www.oddballartco.com/product-page/digital-stamp-whimsical-mason-jars-fireflies-jar-full-of-dreams-image-no-447" target="_blank">Oddball Whimsical Mason jar images</a></b>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I wanted to play along with the current challenge of</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
always <b><i>Anything Goes, but Dots and Doodles</i></b> is the extra theme</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
if you choose to really challenge yourself a bit more.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I chose some neglected premade cards and matching envelopes.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The colors are not what I usually choose for my bases, but all</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the more reason to use them finally.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I speckled the hot pink cardstock with black and white Dylusions sprays,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
then I doodled a frame using a Sharpie. Lastly, I added some polka dotted</div>

Same basic concept for this one as well.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I added sequins and pearl spray for some sparkle</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
on this card. I also added yellow Stickles to the stars. </div>

I really love this image of the jar with fireflies (or moths or butterflies,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
depending on how you choose to color them). I colored it with Copics</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
hoping to capture the look of a glowing fireflies in the jar.</div>

I stamped a lovely sentiment from Unity stamps,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
added a frame of doodling, and some of my highly coveted Prima crystals.</div>
