Rio and Raven sneak peek

Just one more day before the anxiously

awaited release of the new Teen Scene line

at Simply Betty Stamps.

Today's peek is of Raven and Rio. 

How adorable and magically delicious are they?! 

Since I destashed with that bright ass background, 

I decided to keep the rest really simple.

I destashed some more with the teal tulle and

called it a day.

Stop back by tomorrow for the last debut and the

long awaited release of these awesome images

over at SBS!

Plus, there's a little hop and some swag if you're good.

Betty and Batty sneak peek

Well, we're almost there! Only 2 more peeks

until the release of the Teen Scene line from SBS. 

Today I have Betty herself, and her faithful companion, Batty

to show you!

I must confess, this is my favorite image from this release.

It must be the look on Betty's face and that "too cute for words"

bat of hers! 

I kinda went "bat-happy" on this card. I wanted to use as much

bat themed schtuff as possible, and I believe I accomplished just that.

I got to use that killer puffed bat ribbon from Hambo Stamps that

I have been hoarding since last year. Oh, and that awesome

MS bat border punch was unused before now as well. 

Thanks for stopping by today. Feel free to peruse the other

fabulous DT work over at Simply Betty Stamps, and I'll be back

tomorrow with another peek! 

Miller and Max Sneak Peek

Today I have another preview of the awesome

new "Teen Scene" line from Simply Betty Stamps,

set to release this Friday.

Here is Max and Miller.

I am really enjoying this new line.

The images are perfect for the wee kiddos,

right on up to the fickle teens and young adults.

I had great fun putting together this 

snake-a-licious card.

I finally got to use my Tim Holtz reptile embossing folder.

When I added the clear embossing powder it really made the 

paper look like reptile skin! LOVE it!

Made up a cute "sssssnakey" saying and ta-dah!

Check back tomorrow for another cute preview!

All six new images will release this Friday with a 

little release hop and goodies to be won!   



Teen Scene Sneak Peek

All this week I will be previewing the new line at

Simply Betty Stamps called, Teen Scene.

These will be released for sale this Friday at SBS.

Today I have created a fun card using, Lola and Louie.  

Such a great image and so fun to color.

Lola reminds me a bit of Stevie Nicks with her

long, flowing dress and billowy sleeves.

I kept her all in purple with just a touch of pink

for some accent. 

I got to use my MS rat punch for the border which is perfect

for this image. I kept everything pretty simple and just

added some corner accents from Sizzix with a touch

of purple Stickles for a little sparkle.

Thanks for stopping by. Please drop by the SBS blog

to see what the other DT members created with Lola.

I'll be back tomorrow with another sneak peek!  

They're here.....

They're in the shop (along with some 

Mini Jacks and new brains) and ready for purchase.

More of my "collections"...

I have been so busy as of late with special orders

for clay items and personal projects, not to mention

DT obligations. I love the artistic side of it all, but

I am not a fan of the chaos is creates with my scheduling.

I am a military brat, so I'll blame my anal retentive

scheduling on my First Sargent Father and his boot camp-ish ways. 

Anyhoo,

I'm gonna show you some more of my collections until I have

some completed art projects to share.

Sid and Marty Krofft were a huge part of my childhood.

I spent many an afternoon glued to the tv watching the

Krofft Supershow! and wishing I was Dyna Girl. I have a few VHS

tapes of the Supershow! so I could make sure my son is a fan too.

I finally managed to win a vintage Pufnstuf lunchbox and

a Lidsville lunchbox on Ebay. I still have to take pictures of my

lunchboxes. I have many old metal lunchboxes that remind me of my

childhood. Ahh, nostalgia.

I also have some toys from Stephen Spielberg's cartoon,

"Toonsylvania", man I loved that show.

There are also some collectibles from the pop artist, Shag. 

I have some of his art tattooed on me and figured I should have 

some of his collectibles like a Disney scrapbook he designed.

He is the artist responsible for the awesome 40th Anniversary art

and merchandise for the Haunted Mansion at Disneyland. He is awesome!!

     

Trolls!! LOVE them! The original Norfin in the back with the

white hair is my favorite. He was supposed to be a groom,

but I decided he was more of an undertaker.

I also have some Where the Wild Things Are collectibles too.     

I've been collecting Nightmare Before Christmas for quite

a while, and this is most of my collection, minus a few

snow globes and a Sally potion pot that reside in my hutch.

Jim Henson is my lord and saviour. Really. No joke. 

Here are some of my Muppets collectibles and some

Disneyana as well. 

I am a collector of bits and bobs. What to do with all this

cute crap?! I made an ornament tree using stuff I made, found,

or bought.   

What is a Glowbugg without her buggs?!

Just a few.

Poison anyone? LOVE the old glass bottles

and how they shine in my windows.

I even scored a matching dram cup with one of my

Poison bottle purchases. 

Some bats I am working on for this year's Hallowe'en ornaments.

And lastly, another hand me down from

Marcom Manor.

Too bad he's not real.

Thanks for taking a peek into my world.

Next stop, vintage lunchboxes. 

HDH087 Freaker's Free for All!!

This week's challenge at HDH is one of my favorites,

Freaker's Free for all!

What this means is, whatever bizarre, unsavory, unnerving,

bit of strangeness you can muster, just might win you a title!

If you have a project that doesn't really fit any other challenge blog

criteria, we want you!!

That being said, I have a couple of (finally) finished

projects to share with you.

I have added more gourds to my garden.

I love the "Fairy Tale" punkins and always

make a mummy or Jack Skellington every year

out of their sickly white flesh.

More happy Jacks awaiting a new home.

New listings are going up today/tomorrow on Etsy. 

The sTeaMpUnKinS are all fired up and ready to

start chugging along towards Autumn.

And finally, my lovely cherubs.

I am so stoked with how these turned out! I know they are

a bit offensive when my husband (is that thumping I hear?)

is not a fan! Yeah! Mission accomplished!!

Aww! Isn't he just an angel?

So, I'm thinking lapel pins for the smaller ones and this

big guy gets a couple of magnets so he can oversee

the happenings in the kitchen.

Bring out yer dead, your decomposed, your unmentionables!

Just play along with us this week at Haunted Design House!!
