Hello! It's Wednesday, so I have a new Wicked Wednesday ATC Challenge to share with you. I looooove the fantastic image I got to work with for today. We are sponsored by The East Wind , and they have such fantastic images. The theme this week is "Water." I used Lucy Loo Mermaid II . She's not a "typical" mermaid...she has a bit of a menacing look on her face. I love that. I colored her with colored pencils and I used chalk for the sky and sand. I also used some of Stampendous ' Golden Sand embossing powder. I have to be honest, I was getting pretty bored with mermaids. But this gal really inspired me. Please join us this week with our Water challenge. And be sure to visit the rest of the Wicked Wednesday team over on the blog. Thanks for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!

Hello! I am super stoked to share my latest ATC for Wicked Wednesday with you. This week, our theme is "Head Shots," and we are sponsored by The East Wind . I used Apple Seed for my ATC, and I LOVED coloring it. I used my Tombow watercolor markers to color this stunning image. And I really just needed to do a green apple instead of a red one. For my background, I used a cool stencil from Stencil girl, and faaaaaaabulous Spoonful of Midnight (from Stampendous) in the corners. It is such a cool, kinda goth mix of embossing powders and glitters. I hope you will join us this week for this cool theme. You may just win some East Wind digis!

Hello! So, I have a new card today for Left of Center . I know, I know.....I should have had this up yesterday. But, time got away and I have been working horribly out of order for the month (sometimes inspiration hits and ya just gotta go with it, right?) so I finished this baby up yesterday. I'm sorry to my fellow LOC teamies. So, for Day 10 of the Smeared & Smudged 31 Days of Halloween, I bring you this card that features DIY Punk from The East Wind . Our challenge is a sketch created by my bestie Kelli Green. She was super fun to color, and I'd really like to do her in several versions with different color schemes. I colored her direct to paper with my Tombow markers. I used some fun Halloween papers, and sprayed my green cardstock with a purple from Memories Mist. Short post today! I ave a lot of catching up to do. Please be sure to visit the Left of Center Blog, as well as the Wicked Bloggers, all listed in my side bar. Thanks for stopping by, have a fangt...

Greetings! I have an awesome new challenge from Wicked Wednesday to share with you. We are challenging you to CASE a DT member! What's CASE? Copy and Steal Everything! We are sponsored by The East Wind today. Remember to tell us who you are CASEing and how you've CASEd them in your own post. I used Lucy Loo Over the Rainbow for this ATC. I cropped her a bit to fit better on the ATC. I used one of my favorite ways to color....by using shapes, and only coloring in the shape. I used 2 different sized circles. It's fun to do this technique when you have a specific spot that you want to focus on, or if you may be intimidated by an image. Just color part of it! For my background, I used my Houndstooth stencil from Dreamweaver Stencils . I sprayed it with a white spray, but it dried down a bit light. So I inked the stencil and laid it down in the same spot on my cardstock. Then I embossed it in some spots with white embossing powder. I also added some fun chunky glitter ...
