Day 29 of 31 Days: Skellie ATC

Hello! Today is a very special day for me... It's my Anniversary! 8 years ago today I married my wonderful husband, in the most magical celebration you could imagine. I am a very lucky lady.

For my project, I made an ATC using a Dilly Beans image called Skull, Pumpkin and Candy #471. I colored the image with watercolors.

My sentiment is from Smeared Ink. It's just a cute, simple ATC. It's all about the watercolors here.

I am hoping to have my last couple of posts written by tomorrow morning......I'm in NY, and Hurricane Sandy is looming. Hopefully we will not lose power. For those of you also on the East Coast, stay safe!!! Now off you go! Off to hop to the rest of the Wicked Bloggers. They are listed in my side bar. Thanks for stopping by. Have a fang-tastic day!

Fang-tastic ATC. I love the bright colors. Stay safe, I know what's it like dealing with hurricanes every year in Florida. Thank you for sharing your artwork.
Be safe yourself.

Lovely pic of you and your husband, isn't that one of your wedding photos?

BTW another very cute card. Love the way the pumpkin matches the candy corn.

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
