Day 25 - 31 Days of Halloween

Thanks for coming back by my blog... You all have been awesome and very understanding. Thank you for your wonderful comments, even when I had nothing to post!  :)

Today I brought you another digital creation using Bat 3 from A little bit batty (smeared ink) and some images I found via Google. I used Adobe Photoshop to alter and color my images as well as put Nosferatu's silhouette on the moon. I created this for HDH's challenge - HDH156 - Nosferatu Ad nauseam. Hope you all like it!

Sorry folks, I've got another big goose egg for you today. I will try to put something together for tomorrow!

Day 21 - 31 Days of Halloween

Ok, I'm back! LOL. I made a little charm bracelet for today's offering. The skull and spider are cut out from paper. The creepy stitched up face is a Smeared Ink Digi stamp from the Heebie Jeebie set. I had a fourth charm that said "31" on it, but I stuck my finger in it before it was dry and ruined it. Booooo! Anyhoo, hope you like!

Now off you go to Kristy! The blog roll is on my side :)

Day 16 - 31 Days of Halloween

Well, sorry to disappoint, but today I did a bit of a cop-out. I needed to get some rest so I decided to do a very simple project this time around. This is just a simple ATC with Smeared Ink's Lonely Boy and Puff rubber stamp. I die cut a nice little shape to stamp him onto along with some cool black brads. Hope you like it!


And here is some of the sweetness I witnessed when I came to bed... <3 my family :)

Day 15 - 31 Days of Halloween

Here we go with day 15! Whoo! I'm so inspired by everyone, you guys ROCK!

I just want to give a quick mention about the Smeared Ink Rubber Club. Today is the last day to sign up for the October Set, "AsDeath". Don't miss out! You can get all the details here:
RUBBER CLUB

My offering for today is a mini tin. This was originally covered in batman greatness - and yes, I had a hard time painting over him...but did it. I used acrylic paint for the inside and out and also used some cardboard to create my divided space on the inside. My hubby helped me figure that one out (thanks babe!). I decorated the outside with some awesome stickers that i got from Lady Brayton (thanks LB!), arent they FAB!?!

The contents of my tin consist of a mini potion book and three small vials of potions. The image of the bottles on the potion book is actually one of our Halloween Digi Doodles that we used for the scavenger hunt. I'm going to place those images in our store today, so keep your eyes peeled! Hope you like it!!

Day 14 - 31 Days of Halloween

OMG, do you realize we are almost halfway done with the month! It's going by so fast! Everyone is doing such an amazing job!! You all keep it up!!!

For day 14 I've used one of Smeared Ink's new digis from the "Freaky Girl" set. I colored her with my markers. Then I decorated my black card stock with some ghosts from inkadinkadoo...and added a senti/graveyard. The last touch was the bit of silver string at the bottom. This didn't turn out quite how i had pictured it, but still ok. ;)

Day 13 - 31 Days of Halloween

Sorry I'm late! I spent a long time looking for my phone this morning to get a picture of my project. I HATE when that happens! It likes to get up and walk away from me when I need it the most!

Today I have a little surprise for you. I created a new fun little digi to share. You all are welcome to it. just make sure you click on it first so that you can download the large version of the image. Then right-click and save the file.


Here you go:

Hope you like it and have fun using it! It has a double meaning for me and for most of my DT... it reminds us of someone we've had dealings with.....but I'm sure we all know someone that needs to be put in the looney bin! ;) So - Enjoy!


Here is what I've done with it.....it's a card. :)
Colored with prisma and copic markers.

Day 12 - 31 Days of Halloween

I can't believe this is already the second Friday! Amazing, it's gonna be over before we know it. Just a quick reminder that today is Smeared Ink Friday where our bloggers get extra points for using a Smeared Ink image in their project. :)

Ok, so today I have a simple ATC for you. I used one of the Gothic Fairies, colored with Copics. I did my background with stencils from tattered angels , dylusions spray inks and a pumpkin stamp from inkadinkadoo. I added some cool black lace tape and a few black jewels....viola! Hope you like it!

Day 11 - 31 Days of Halloween

Here we go again, day 11! I still have some great ideas to hopefully show you all! My project for today was inspired by a picture I saw on FB. It was a beautifully decorated mask....and I so happened to have a mask that needed decorating! So here you go! I painted it black and then used my glossy assents to give a gloss varnish design. I love the look of black gloss lines on black matte...just love it! I put glossy accents on my little clear spider stamp and applied it to the center top portion of the mask. This didn't work out too well, as you can see....it just looks like a blob more than a spider....but, oh well. Not all my brilliant ideas work! LOL. So, after all the glossy accents was applied I went in and accented them with some glitter glue. :)

This is my co-worker wearing it. :)

This is me wearing it ;)

Day 9 - 31 Days of Halloween

YAY! Day 9 - I can't believe I haven't missed a day yet! Maybe I'll actually make it for the entire 31 days this year!! It's very exciting to think that I can actually complete it. You guys are doing an awesome job as well and thank you for coming back and checking out all our fabby Halloween projects.

So....Do you guys know about our challenge blog, Smudgy Antics? It's a dark challenge blog run by the Smeared Ink Design Team. They are a wonderfully talented group of artists that I hope you are all familiar with. They make weekly projects to inspire you and show off our Smeared Ink images. Will you stop by and say hello? Better yet, stop by and PLAY ALONG! 31 Days is a perfect opportunity to make some dark art and it would fit perfect with our weekly themes this month. In fact, this week's theme is "Movie Madness".... I know you have a favorite scary movie...one with a vampire, maybe...or a werewolf? Zombie or ghosts? Any of those would work and you get another chance to WIN an awesome prize. Smeared Ink is giving a $5 voucher to use in the shop! You don't even have to use a Smeared Ink image to play along...

Now for my offering for the day. I stamped on fabric for the first time EVAR! It was the most craziest thing I've ever done in my entire life....NOT! Ha....but it was definitely different. This is an image from the AS DEATH rubber set from Smeared Ink. It was discontinued for a while, but if you haven't heard, Smeared Ink has a new RUBBER CLUB! As Death is the first available rubber set. If you sign up before October 15th you can get it too! It's an awesome set.

I tried coloring in my image with my limited supply of Copic markers. Is that supposed to work? My colors bled like a slit throat, but I think it gave it a neat vintage effect. Anyhoooooo, I made this little pillow (with the help of my mommy because I don't know how to sew without poking a whole in my finger).

Whatcha think?

Day 8 - 31 Days of Halloween

Guess what? It's day 8 time! Whooo!
It's also a Monday, so I'm gonna keep this short and sweet like candy corn!

My offering today is a coffin shaped tag. I embossed a wood grain texture and then used my distress inks to give it some depth. Then I added my Skelly from the new smeared ink set "Danse Macabre". Then....embellishments! :) hope you like it!

Also, I wanted to remind you about Smudgy Antics, our challenge blog. Use this 31 Days opportunity to enter into our weekly challenges! We have great themes and a chance to win a Smeared Ink voucher! There is a new theme every Monday and this month is full of Halloween themes to encourage our 31 Days of Halloween participants to join in! We'd love to see you play!!!

Day 7 - 31 Days of Halloween

Well folks, you've made it to Day 7 - ONE WEEK DOWN! How are you feeling? I hope everyone is enjoy this awesome event! We've only got three more weeks to go and then it's gone for an entire year. Is it weird that I'm already thinking about how sad November will be without daily inspiration from everyone (sniff-sniff)?

OK, enough mushy stuff....For Day 7 I offer you an altered can. I mod podged some awesome paper (from Lady Brayton, thanks again for the awesome paper!) on the outside and inside of my can. Before I applied it I crumbled it and used some distress ink to add some extra color. The I used a spider web stamp to give it some added creepiness. I also stamped the spider web onto my skull that I mounted onto a spring to go inside the can....it's sort of a skully bobble head :). To finish it off I added some skulls to the bottom as the feet. Hope you like it!

Now - on to my offering for day 6. Today I honor one of my favorite authors. I call him the King of the Ravens. He is a master of horror....Edgar Allan Poe. I created this specifically for the challenge over at Quoth the Raven. You should check it out too! Some of my most favorite people in the world run that challenge.

Day 5 - 31 Days of Halloween

Five days down!! This is going to be a quick post for me because I've run out of time....My offering for day 5 is a digital creation using one of the zombie pinups from Smeared Ink. For Day 5 of 31 Days of Halloween, I wish you a Sweet Nightmare! The senti was taken from the Candy is Dandy set, also Smeared Ink and digi papers from itkupilli.

Day 4 - 31 Days of Halloween

Hurray for day 4! This hop is just awesome, isn't it! I'm so proud of all our Wicked Bloggers and Hoppers! So inspiring!

My offering for day 4 is a collection of hand painted paper mâché sugar skulls. These came out really fun. The stamping is on the inside - it's just some heat embossed candy images from our Lonely Boy and Puff set (Smeared Ink). I thought it was fitting since i plan to fill them with candy anyway! Hope you like them!!

Day 3 - 31 Days of Halloween

So glad you all have come back to visit me on Day 3! Are you having Halloween overload yet? I sure hope not!!! We've got 28 more days to go! We might be crazy, but in an awesome way!

For Day 3 I offer up another paper mâché coffin. This one is a little bit bigger than my coffin from yesterday. I lined the outside with some awesome "BOO" paper that I got from my good friend Lady Brayton, thanks Lady!! I painted over all the edges with black acrylic paint to give it a bit of a darker look. The inside was painted with black acrylic paint too, then I lined the bottom inside with white fur... :) .....looks comfy, eh? The final touch was to add my Happy Halloween sentiment that I stamped and heat embossed on a die cut piece of spider web glitter paper. Then I glued it to the inside. I know it seems a bit incomplete without someone/thing to occupy it, but I just haven't found the right "owner" yet.... I'll be sure to share when I find him/her/it!!! :)
