And here is what I created!

October Notebook. This lovely witch is Witchy Wednesday! I don't know about you all but I right lists and jot things done constantly. I have notebooks all over the house and I thought "Why not make a fun and pretty notebook to write all those things down! This one is going to be for October! (and all the things I must get done, etc...)

 

The papers are from MAMBI, the alphas are from Thickers, the bling is from Zva Creative. I used my Cricut Expression to cut out the ovals, Christmas Red Stickles, Majestic Purple Liquid Pearls, and Copics to color my image.

 

 

What do you think? I hope this and the other creations for this hop inspire you!

Welcome back to Day 7 of our SBS Olympics, we hope your enjoying all the events so far, only 3 more days to go, before voting starts.

Today we are playing 'Pass the Pumpkin', Use a SBS image on your project and Pass the Pumpkin, it could be a relay race, Beach Volley Pumpkin, we'd even accept some Pumpkin Juggling, it's really up to you.

For all the details, DT inspiration, rules, and prizes, please visit the Simply Challenged Challenges Blog!

This is my sample for today's event:

Dude Card. I used Beachin' Miller from the Summer Emos collection over at Simply B Stamps. To go with the Pass the Pumpkin event, I drew a pumpkin over the ball he is carrying.

Supplies: papers from Authentique and Echo Park, stickers from Echo Park, cardstock, white opaque pen, and Copics.

Day 17, Smudy Antics Challenge & Scraps of Darkness

Hello,all! It's Day 17 of the 31 Days of Halloween! And today is another fun Smudgy Antics Challenge! So I created a layout with my Scraps of Darkness October - All Hallows Eve Kit including a Smeared Ink stamp for today! The Smudgy Antics Weekly Challenge this week is Skull Time! Here is a photo of one of my favorite tv families: The Munsters. Can you guess what other family was a favorite of mine? Lol. You'll be seeing them some time this month, too.

The Munsters Layout. I used my Scraps of Darkness All Hallows Eve kit for this page, including some Pink Paislee Phantom papers, Kaisercraft acetate shapes and rub ons, and some Fancy Pants Oct 31 Witching Hour paper. The skull stamp is from Smeared Ink. I love how gruesome it is compared to the "pretty-ness" of the layout. The trims are from my stash of Websters Pages products. The flowers are Petaloo Color Me Crazy misted with a mixture of Shimmerz Hermit the Frog Mist and Lindy's Stamp Gang Yellow Rose of Texas, and some Petaloo Black flowers. I used Lime Green Stickles for some dots and printed out the title from my computer. I will be entering this page to the Monochrome Challenge at scrapbook.com for the Lime Green week.   

Punky Scraps Challenge #27

Hello, all! I hope everyone is having a great day! My day is going pretty well.... a little cleaning, a little shopping... a little scrapping! Today is the beginning of Punky Scraps' Challenge #27. This challenge gives a picture to be inspired by. Take a look:

What inspires you from this picture?

So lets get on with our challenge....how does this picture inspire you?? Is it the leopard print? the tartan? the badges? colours?

Here is what I created for this challenge and how the picture inspired me!

Lil' Punk Layout. This is my eldest daughter when she went through a punky phase. I used all the things that I associate with punk: tartan, skull and crossbones, chains, safety pins, checkerboard pattern, and zippers. I misted the cardstock with Lindy's Stamp Gang mists in Yellow Rose of Texas and Hag Wart Orange, and Tattered Angels mist in Scarlet. I also used some opaque white stamp ink in combination with Tim Holtz's grunge stamps.
