Day 28 of 31 Days: 4th Tile and an Unfinished Project

Hello! I have the 4th tile in my Dilly Beans Sugar Skulls set, and sadly, an unfinished Bombshell Stamps pendant.  Allow me to show you my tile...

As you'll see in a moment, I reversed the image. I didn't want two of the "same" image...so I thought reversing this one was a good fix.

I colored this using Copics and Sharpie markers. I colored it using pretty different colors from the other Sugar Skull, again, to make it feel more different.

Wanna see the whole set????????????????????????????????????

I am soooooo happy with it! I don't know if I can sell it....or, maybe I'll just make a second set for myself and sell this one. What do you think of the 4 together?
As you are aware from a post I had the other day, Bombshell Stamps came out with 2 awesome new sets. Indian Princess and Indian Warrior. I made started to make a pendant with one of the images from Indian Warrior.

So. I had her colored, cut and ready to go. Then she disappeared. Up and flew away by her pig tails. So, at the last second (I'm having a busy weekend), I had to recolor her and try to get her n the pendant. Well, at least she's sitting on it, right?

The plan is as follows... I am going to mount her on to the chipboard oval that I colored with Distress Inks. Then, I will punch a few holes. One for a jump ring, and a few for some dangles. Then, I will probably be adding some of the fabulous Bedazzlers that Kathi sent me, and emboss the whole thing. At least, that's what I envision.
I apologize for not getting this pendant done. But, if you go to the next stop on the Bombshell Hop, which is Susie, you are sure to see not only something complete, but something fabulous. Here is the full hop list in case you get lost along the way.

What a gorgeous set, I can see why it would be hard to part with them. I have that issue when I make something as well. Thank you for sharing a part of you.

Your coaster set is gorgeous. I think you should keep it and make another two sets. One for Kelli and one for me.

I love the start to your Indian Warrior pendant. I'm sure it will be gorgeous when done.

Kim said…
I love the coaster tile set. I think you should make a bunch and sell them (and of course keep a set for yourself).

The pendant you are making, looks gorgeous already! Can't wait to see it finished.
Steph said…
Your set of coasters is just fabulous, you should definately keep a set :) Can't wait to see the finished pendant, she's a lovely image.

Your tiles are to die for! I love them all and they make a wonderful set. I can see why it would be hard to part with them. Definitely make a second set and keep whichever you like best and sell the other :) The start of your bombshell pendant looks great. I know it will be fabulous when you are finished with it!

Your set of tiles are Fantastic. Such great images and colours, you must keep them.
Fabulous tiles, they came out perfectly, great job on your pendant too!
Sharon Sahl said…
Your tiles are wonderful together and I'm torn about whether to keep or sell. It's always nice to get stuff out there to see whether there's a market but sometimes even when I was going to make 30 of something, I wanted to keep the prototype!
I am loving your tiles. I like the entire set.

I am anxious to see the BS pendant finished. Hurry, I wanna seeeeeee.

Great colors..copics and sharpies made a beautiful impacf
Very fun Halloween tiles!
And I know just what you mean about your princess image taking sudden leave from the stamping table. I thought that only could happen to me! She will make a great pendant for sure.

Happy Anniversary .. but stay safe over there!

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

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 Style Sa
