Norse Gods Release Preview - Day 3!

Hello, everyone! It's day 3 of the preview for the Norse Gods from Simply B Stamps! These are such fabulously fun images! I hope you get your hands on some to create some amazing projects!

Today's previews will be of Lola as Sif and Rio as Hel,

In Norse mythology, Sif was the wife of Thor, the goddess associated with the earth. Hel was the goddess of the underworld, much like Hades is in Greek mythology. I think that is where the word "hell" comes from.

Here are my creations with these unusual and beautiful ladies:

Enjoy Life's Little Moments. This is Lola as Sif. I thought she would look lovely in some spring colors to go with the golden locks she is supposed to have.

It's Been One of Those Days. This is Rio as Hel. I thought of her as more earthy than deadly, that is why I went with brown instead of black for her colors.

Make sure to visit the SBS blog and the other DT blogs to view what everyone else has created with these!

Gods in Love Special Release!

Hello, everyone! I have something awesome to share with you today! A new release of Simply B Stamps is happening!

These stamps were meant for release much later but because Betty needs to raise money for her son's therapy she is releasing them in digi form early. They will only be available in digi form until Friday. After that they will be released in rubber only in January. So get them in digi form while you can!

I recieved these two awesome images to work with for this release; Hades Christian and Persephone Lola!

You Set My Heart on FIRE. This hot young man is Hades Christian. He is soooo cute! I love him and his heart of flames!

My World Turns COLD Without You Near. This enchanting lady is Persephone Lola. I love her innocence! I created the sentiment to reflect the Greek myth of Perephone and her mother, Demeter, who was supposed to have been so saddened by her daughter's kindnapping that she created Fall and Winter on Earth.

 

 

For more peaks at the stamps in this special release, please visit my fellow SBS DT members, Erin and Corinne!

Simply Challenged Challenges - Aug 28 - 12 Months of Halloween

Hi, all! It's another challenge from Simply Challenged! It's time for our Halloween challenge for the month of August! And this month we challenge you to create a Halloween themed project that showcases movement of some kind!

What Was That? Did you see something Move? Was it a Ghost, or a Ghoul or maybe a Vampire???

 

Our Halloween Challenge this month is all about movement. We'd like you to create something that is interactive or has movement. Just make sure your use a SBS image and that it's scary and spooky, and makes us jump out of our skins!!!

For details, DT inspiration, and winners, check out the Simply Challenged Challenges Blog!

This is what I created for this challenge:

Inseparable Card. This is Emo Lola! She is a gorgeous girl; I love her straight hair! The movement on my card is from Lola's pet rat. He is attached to some twine and is able to swing around the card. The papers are from the DCWV Mariposa stack; ribbon, flower, and title are from my stash. Image colored with Copics.
