Wicked Wednesday - HDH083 Magically Witchy

Is it Hump Day already?!

This week's Macabre Monday challenge is sponsored by

Stitchy Bear Digital Stamps

There is $10 worth of digital goodness up for grabs

this week.

The challenge is simple.

Make something magically witchy.

I used some of the killer Zodiac Tiny Tickets for my card.

These come in a set of 12, so you have one for every month

which makes it nice for birthdays and those friends who like

the whole astrological theme.

Each ticket has really detailed art of the zodiac

in the center, along with other corresponding

zodiac symbols decorating every bit of the ticket.

Really nice set to have on hand for all kinds of projects.

I used each month's birthstone to figure the color

of each ticket. After coloring each one with Copics,

I fussy cut each ticket and aged it a bit with distress inks.

I am planning on making a set of these to keep on hand

for each month just in case I forget some one's special day.

I have another Stitchy project using the "Dem Bones" silhouettes,

but my battery croaked before I could get any photos. I'll post them tomorrow.

Please join us this week at HDH's  Macabre Monday challenge

and drop by Stitchy Bear Digital Stamps and check out all the

amazing images you could choose from if you are this week's 

winner!   

   

The Punkins are coming....

That's right, the Punkins are making their way

to my Etsy shoppe today!

I have many different Punkins to choose from and keep in mind,

they look great in a group!!!

"Mini Jacks"  jack-o-lanterns

Flourished Punkins

Even a couple of "Steampunkins" too!

If I was ever going to switch teams...

...it  would totally be for this little filly right here.

Mae Western, I think I love you!

The challenge at Kenny K this week is Aquamarine.

I chose to go more aqua than blue, and she is awesome!!!

I love the huge contrast between the aqua and the orange.

Total opposite sides of the color wheel, but I love it!!

I always saw her in my head as a redhead. HOTTT!!!

The paper was a perfect match and the stars make it possible to

enter this week's Corrosive Challenge which is stars!!

I kept this one really simple so Mae was the main and only

real focus of the card. A few SU star punches and

this dog will hunt!!

 

Weak Ticket Wednesday and a Birthday Wish for my Curse

I am calling this post

Weak Ticket Wednesday

because I totally called it in on this one.

I never could come up with a cool and unique idea for

the Hacked to Bits challenge at

Haunted Design House.

The other DT gals really shredded it up one side and down the

other this week, but I could not get the "wow" factor I was hoping for.

Hello Freddy!!

How flippin' adorable and tattoo worthy

is he???

No joke, this may be the next tatt.

I had fun making the shaped cards. I saw some challenges a

while back that called for shaped cards, but I didn't know about

using my Nesties for this until I saw it on Donna's blog.

I like it! Thanks Donna.

This is another shaped card I made for

my best friend of some 28 (YIKES!) years.

She's a big giant 41 today!!!!

LOVE the image. I snagged it off of Google a while ago and was

saving it for Curse's card. Her name is Chris, but when my son

(our love child) was learning to say her name he called her

"Curse" instead of Chris, and if you know her you also

know why it stuck.

Happiest of Birthdaze

to you Curseteen!

I am entering ths bunny card at Crafty Creations
for their bunny challenge. Tee hee. Thanks Teri.  

Wee Stamps Cuteness

I have succumbed to the cuteness over at

Wee Stamps.

I admit it. I like cute. I have fricken Hello Kitty and

Kuromi tattoos - that's permanently cute.

I first saw Sylvia's style of art at Spesch Stamps

and quickly gobbled up the images for sale there.

Then, Sylvia opened her own shop and now I have even more

cuteness to collect!!

This is "Sweet Blossom". Yes, yes it is isn't it?

Bleepin' adorable! Love the little critter next to her too!

So fun to color and make such a cute spring card.

I am anxiously awaiting the sun which should be here

this week with temps in the high 70's!!! We have had so

much rain and drab days for the past month or so. I am 

ready for the sun and spring to get sprung!  

Kraftin' Kimmie, how I've missed you

Today I have a card I made with

with the awesome image, "Perfect Poison",

from the insanely talented artist, Annie Rodrigue.

I have had this image for far too long and am just

thrilled to finally ink her up and make something

this pretty and spring-like.

I really LOVE this image. I had alot of fun coloring her

with Copics and what I consider to be spring colors for the

challenge over at Kraftin' Kimmie.

The colors in her dress remind me of gorgeous spring blooms

like crocuses and irises. I cannot wait for the sun to finally 

bring out those colors in my own yard. The wisteria is huge with buds

just begging to bloom out in their full violet regalia!!  

One of my trademark Glow Skullz adornes the center

of my cute Sizzix layered fleur. I wanted to bring out

the yellow in "Poison's" dress and used it for the

Happy Birthday banner.

One of my favorite people in blogland,

Nancy at "Another MD Crabbie"

has this awesome ability with paper and dimension. I tried my

best to mimic her arched bits (nothin' naughty I promise) and gave

the banner some dimension Nancy-style!

I am entering this card in the

Kraftin' Kimmie challenge - Spring Colors

and a new challenge blog called,

 Birthday Sundaes - Spring Birthday.  

Get Well dammit!!!

I have a quick post today to show you

this cute little Get Well card I made using

Bugaboo Stamps Nurse image.

Isn't she just wicked?! Must be the syringe full of

pink meds! Hospitals would be way more inviting if the

nurses wore pink uniforms and high heels.

This little vixen is from the Sassy Girls line at Bugaboo.

I colored the rhinestones with Copics to match

the pinks on the card. I also sponged around the 

image while it was still in the Spellbinder die

with SU Cool Caribbean ink. 

The inside sentiment and band-aid stamps are

from Hambo Stamps. They have some of the best 

sentiments available anywhere! 

I dedicate this card to all the "Naughty Nurses" out there!

You know who you are!!!

Have a creepy weekend!!!
