Challenge 181 - Rotten Romance Week 1

I have started an Art Journal that features wonderful ladies.

They are full of surprises and lots of fun.

I am continuing my "ladies journal" for this week long challenge.

This little lady finally found love.

But you know, he just was not that into her.

So, she found another way to have his heart...

FOREVER!!

NO FLASH 

FLASH

 MUST have you, Deets

Gloomsville Witch is from The Octopode Factory.  

I have printed her onto Whisper White card stock.  Colored in with markers and Blender Pen.

Fussy cut and adhered to page.  

Heart in pail is hand drawn in with fine tip black Sharpie.  Crystal Effects on heart, eyes, and hanging star.

Glitter on her eyes.

Background

On Monday when I was messing around with the 3 Primary Color Drips Challenge, this was one of the pages that came out of my gelli plate when I brayered my 3 colors together.  Thought it would be a great background for this page.

Words and large heart is hand drawn with fine tip black Sharpie.

Star stamp is from Simply Stars set (SU!) and stamped with Versa Mark ink.  Then heat embossed with White Embossing Powder.  Did go over with Sharpie after cool.

Basic Black ink sponged around edges.

All materials used are current Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted.

Smeared and Smudged Sketchy July Challenges

 I have had these projects done for a while but am finally getting a chance to get them done.  Did July seem to fly by for anyone else?  Okay on to the challenges...

 
Smeared and Smudged Forum Very Sketchy Card Challenge.



To the left are this month's sketches for each challenge.



Smeared and Smudged Forum Very Sketchy Scrapbook Challenge



I was not sure at first what I wanted to do, but ended up really liking what I came up with.

Here are my take on the sketches:

Card Sketch Deets

Stamps
Main skull image - Smeared Ink Rubber Club, Morte by Rick St. Dennis
Sentiment - Stampin' Up! set called Remembering Your Birthday
Barb wire - Smeared Ink Rubber Club, Urban Decay
Green hard to see background image skulls - Smeared Ink Rubber Club, Morte by Rick St. Dennis
Word background - Stampin' Up! background stamp, Dictionary

Main image was stamped in Versa Mark and heat embossed with Smoky Slate Embossing Powder.  I sponged and stamped background first.

I used the negative of a heart framelit over main image and sponged and inked with darker colors.

Barb wire and sentiment stamped with Basic Black ink.  Skull background with Gumball Green ink.  Dictionary background stamped in Perfect Plum ink.

Red marker to high light heart.

Ribbon is from unknown.


Scrapbook Sketch Deets

A 6" x 6" page on Sahara Sand and Vellum card stock.

I used the set Glorious Grunge, Stampin' Up!, to stamp background on entire page.

Heart Framelits for the cut out hearts.

Washi tape along the bottom, wood buttons, and smushed bottle caps for accessories.

Crystal Effects (of course!) and Real Red Marker also used.


Note:  All card stock, inks, and accessories are Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted.
