Batty Betty Birthday Hop

Happy Birthday Betty Boo! Hope we surprised you! Many current and former Simply Betty Stamps DT gals got together to have a fun blog hop in honor of one of our favorite ladies. I used one of my fave SBS images, Pipper, to create my card for our fearless leader.

I used my watercolor markers for Pipper. I made her uber bright and bold, just like Betty! I also used the new stencil I got from Crafter’s Workshop that I had used on my Bombshell Stamps card from yesterday.

Looking at Pipper’s hair is reminding me that I am in serious need of a dye job! Look at her little cupcake clip! So cute!

So Betty, I hope you have a fang-tastic Birthday. Put all of your stresses out of your mind (ok, try to!) for at least today. Put on your party hat and celebrate! We love you Betty Boo!!!
For your hoping pleasure, here is the entire hop list:
Alison (me!)
Enjoy the rest of the surprise Birthday hop. Thanks for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!

Ooh, I love the way you colored her! I need a dye job too! My last one didn't turn out very well, haha...I ended up with cherry red on top and the rest black.:)

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 ...

Two Huge Valentine’s Day Hops!

I am in not one, but two Valentine’s Day hops! Not bad for someone that doesn’t even like Valentine’s Day… The first is via Smeared & Smudged . It’s time for our monthly Member Blog Hop! The second was started by Taylor Usry . Please bear with me…this post is long because I am sharing 2 projects and the hop lists are huge. Let’s stat with Smeared & Smudged, shall we? My dear friend Alex and I collaborated on the theme for this month’s S&S Member Hop. Instead of making it a free-for –all, we decided to challenge our members a little…create something Valentine’s Day / love themed, but there is a catch.  Because we are Smeared and Smudged you can not use any of the following: No hearts No red or pink Nothing ‘cute’ unless you make it uncute of course :) Ok, so it’s not dark and scary…but it’s definitely not cute either. I used my colored pencils for the focal image.  It’s from Smeared Ink’s Smitten collection. The “pretty fly” is from the teir teen...
