Scary Movie


So I know I missed the time frame by 9 minutes on the post but I made it so I am going to post it. My darn watch was 15 minutes different. I knew I should of checked the computer time. Oh well!
I used paper from Creative Imaginations as the background. I took the picture (which is awesome) from the website http://www.fanpop.com/spots/horror-movies/images/11226239/title/thirteen-ghosts-wallpaper .
I placed that on the Coredinations Cardstock. Cut out all the letters from the cricut using the Happy Hauntings and the October 31st cartridges.
I used stickles to color in the letters with black and burgandy. I used recollections ribbon over the picture. Placed the EEEK from Jolees. Then the transparency bling thing. I don't know who makes that.
I used liquid enamel to make the 13 ghosts stand out.
Again this is for the Betty Challenge that I missed by minutes. :(

My favorite halloween costume


Yes that is really me way back in the day!!! Wasn't I a little brat!?!

Anyways I used Creative Inspirations patterned paper for the background and the cherry paper. Then I took the DCWV rockstar matstack and cut out the guitar, used Tim Holtz distress inks to change the color. I used copics to color in the Theresa Collins stamp, which I added glittery stars from MM. I took the Holiday Headstart download and cut down the Happy Halloween to just halloween. Didn't like the green so I used enamel accents to color it in.
Used a whole bunch of stickles, paper ribbon, and whole bunch of thickers.

Butterfly Tag


So here is a tag a recently made. I was playing around with different stuff that I haven't used in a while.
I took Tim Holtz's ink and inked the outer parts and blended inward. I haven't used embossing ink and powder in a while. So I used my bright red with gold flakes embossing powder and made the big flowers. I believe the stamp is from Making Memories but I am not sure.
Next I took tin foil and used alcohol inks to color it. Then I used my cuttlebug to to cut out the butterfly and emboss it.
I added the little roses and the fancy red fibers to finish off my project.
I hope everyone likes.

A new little something


So this is an adorable stamp from unity stamps.
I took an acrylic tag and used alcohol inks from ranger ink for the background. I then stamped the image on the other side of the tag. Colored it in with a black sharpie marker. Then I used white cardstock and stamped a basic background stamp on that. Cut it to the same size of the tag. Distressed the edges.I used glue dots to adhere the two together. A little bit of ribbon and that's all she wrote.
