Rad Lady Raven

I love playing along with the Kenny K Krafty Girlz whenever I can. Not just because their challenges are fun, but because I just LOVE coloring in those Kenny K images! This week, there is a sketch challenge. I used Lady Raven for my project.

Here’s my version…which I altered a bit from the original.

Because I like to use a lot of pattern and texture, I thought the original sketch would be too busy if I stuck to it. I think my simplified version came out cool!

What do you think of Lady Raven in these bright and cheery colors? I think she looks fabulous! She can rock out in black and red of course, But I really like her in these colors too! She was colored with my EK Success Watercolor Markers.

The “Rad” and the texture stamp behind Lady Raven (the black on turquoise) are both from Smeared Ink.  Can I just say that I really want those purple boots of hers???

be sure to visit me tomorrow, when I will be posting a brand new Groovy Gurlz challenge for StampInsanity! I lurve the card I have for it, and I hope you will to! Until then, have an inspiring day!!!

Love it. And with my SIL doing his hillclimbs (dirtbike) I'm all about 'grunge' and 'texture'. LOVE the sentiment, perfect! Although you kept it simple in terms of texture, I can still 'feel' the texture on this card. Definitely love it. :-)

February Smeared & Smudged Sketch Challenge

The new Smeared & Smudged challenges are up and ready for you to participate in! I got instantly inspired by Kelli’s card sketch for the month, as I have been working with different ideas for my next “Tarot Card.” Haha! That’s actually pretty funny! If you’ve been checking in over the past couple of weeks, you may have seen my Misty Benson Tarot Set 1 ( Smeared Ink ) cards. I’ve used The World and The Fool so far. Today, I bring you Death. Don’t worry…it’s actually a joyful image…one that I intend to use a lot! First, here’s the sketch. I flipped it and changed the ribbon and embellishment a bit. Can I just start off by saying that it is quite nerve wracking to slice your image??? I have done it a few times in the past, but I always get butterflies when I attempt it again. I colored the image and the card itself using nothing but Distress Inks and my Cut-n-Dry Nibs. My skull button at the top has been colored with Alcohol Inks.   The colors look a little off to m

Christmas in July with Imagine Crafts & Stencil Girl!

Hello! Have you heard? The Imagine AIRs have been hopping with Stencil Girl! If you have been here before, you know I loooove me some stencils, so this collaboration was very exciting for me! The teams are hopping for 3 consecutive Saturdays, and this is week 2. I have the entire list of hop links at the bottom of the post. Be sure you don't miss anyone! I decided to to create an extra large gift tag with my new stencils. Using red cardstock, I taped down the Journal Texture #8 Stencil  and inked it up with Golden Glitz Delicata ink . I promise you, this is the BEST gold ink you will ever use! The Journal stamp only has 2 diamonds on it (it's a 4x4" stencil), so after I inked up the first pair, I moved over the stencil, lined it up, and inked again. Next I wanted to do something textural with the Urban Insiders Star . So I took some evergreen cardstock, taped down the star, and slathered on some yummy Iridescent Green Creative Medium . After the medium dried, I ga
