Anya Glam Vamp and The Countess

I have two vampire projects today! One of my favorite subjects. The first is for a special Rick St. Dennis post on the Airless Chambers Blog.   The second  is for this month's Smeared and Smudged Freaky Freebie Challenge.

Say hello to The Countess. As soon as I got her, I knew I wanted to pair her with the fantastic Spider Web stencil from Dreamweaver Stencils. I used their fantastic silver embossing paste to get the image on to my black cardstock.

I colored The Countess with my Spectrum Noir markers.

I hope you can see the dimension of the silver web. In person, it's really shiny! Now on to my S&S tag.

This is Anya from the Glam Vamps collection. It has been one of my favorite sets of Smeared Ink's since I was on the Smeared & Smudged DT. So when I saw that Anya was this month's challenge, I needed to play.

Again, I used my Spectrum Noirs to color in the image. Then I dripped on some Candy Apple Glimmer Mist on to the tag.

Last, I added the "Suck It" with a Just Rite Alpha stamper and the cool red yarn for a tassel. Quick and simple, but I like it. I hope you have enjoyed my offerings for today. Thanks for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!

I just love the Countess' eyes! The red in her hair, the rose and the brads ties everything together. Cool card!

Fangtastic projects, Sistah! Your colouring on the Countess rocks and I'm loving the webbed stencil. I imagine the silver paint looks immense in real life! You know I have a soft spot in my heart for Anya :) Awesome tag you've created! It displays her so well :)

Hugs, my talented friend!

Echo Park Blog Hop with Imagine

Greetings! This is my second post for the day. This one is not part of the 31 Days of Halloween, but rather a super-duper blog hop that the Artists in Residence for Imagine are doing with Echo Park . So if you're here for my Day 7 project, please check out the post HERE . But before you do that, scroll on to check out this one. There are prizes up for grabs, so be sure to check out the Imagine Blog as well as the Echo Park Blogs for details. I created my background by applying Dandelion and Tangelo Memento Ink to my brayer. Then I sprayed it with Ink Potion No. 9 to help the colors blend and to act as an extender to keep the inks wet longer. After I rolled the colors out on to watercolor paper and let it dry, I stamped the lovely doily-like image from Echo Park's Simply Sweet Stamp Set with Grape Jelly Memento. I also received the super pretty Heart Doily Designer Die  which I used with a true purple cardstock. But it needed something....and in rolls the super fabul...

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...
