Dia de los Muertos Hop with the Bombshell Girls!

Happy November! It's officially Dia de los Muertos, one of my favorite holidays. The Bombshell gals wanted to bring you a special blog hop in honor of this very special celebration. Here's what I made.

I used the ever-popular Sugar Skulls set. I started by stamping the medium skull in the background. Then I just layered my papers and stamped my sentiment on top.

I thought these papers (from DCWV) worked really well with the decorations on the skulls. Many of the other gals have fabulous projects on the Bombshell Blog. Please be sure to visit them! Also, I would like to wish Bombshell Stamps' creator and owner, Shannon, a very happy Birthday. You rock, Shannon! Have a rad day!

Since it's the 1st of the month, I should also have a Desert Islands Crafters Challenge for you. Hurricane Sandy really f'ed me up, and I forgot. I am going to try to get that done and posted for your viewing pleasure  Until then, please visit DICC to see what the latest itinerary is. Thanks for stopping by. Have a fang-tastic day!

Deco Art and Andy Skinner Blog Hop Finale

Hello! It's time for the finale of the DecoArt and Stampendous blog hop. Have you enjoyed yourself this week? I bet you've got some new techniques that you want to try. I know I do! I am super stoked about my project for today. And it solves a dilemma that we've had in my kids' room for a while. What you see above is 2 pieces of PVC. And some fab DecoArt Media Fluid Acrylics ! So, what am I doing with PVC, you ask? Well, my mom bought my son a light saber(Darth Vader's) for Christmas, and he wanted to display it, but we weren't really sure where in his room, and how. I wanted something cooler than hooks, and we thought it would be neat to have the light saber vertical, instead of horizontal. Plus, there was a fab spot for it if it hung in that direction. So, my husband came up with the PVC pip idea, and I altered the pieces. The end cap holds the base, and the small piece of pipe holds up near the end. And the 2 pieces are spaced out enough so that...
