Ack, my camera ran out of juice so will post pic of Halloween Wreath hanging in a bit.  The base of this wreath was Q-Tips, which is the October Junk Funk Challenge at the Smeared and Smudged Forum.  I was hoping they would show a bit more but oh well!

And my pic the face looks yellow, but is bright green.  Ahhh, gotta love altered colors!
Again, barely making it and will post more deets later this afternoon.  Thanks all.

31 DOH - Day 28 and IKE'S WORLD CHALLENGES DT Project

This post is a combination of the 31 Days of Halloween, Day 28, AND my Design Team Project for the new Ike's World Challenges, starting today.

For Day 28, you should have just left Roni's and are now here at Shoni aka Crafty Inknik's blog.  The lovely Jenn is next.  The Wicked Blogger list is on your left if you just joined us.

31 Days of Halloween event, is held by Smeared Ink and the Smeared and Smudged Forum.  To start from the beginning, see daily winners, and for more info check out Terra's Blog. 

Ike's World Challenges has a new Challenge #4 Krazy Kritterz.  All team members will be using all kinds of Krazy Kritterz images from Ike's Art.  Search for those favorite animal/critter stamps that you have stashed away, or check out Ike's Art, and come join us for this fun challenge.  

Normally I would have tried something with a cat, but wanted to try those not so popular animals.  Dippy Duckz were just calling my name.  I tried a couple of 'cute' things, but....they all wanted to get dressed up for the big Halloween Pond Party over at Old McDonald's Farm.  Who am I to say no to that?

The Downy Deets
Each duck from the Dippy Duckz set was printed out, colored in with ink and Aqua Painter, and fussy cut.  Each beak has Crystal Effects on them.

31 DOH - Day 22

 

Roni just gave us another fab project and Jenn has something wonderful next.  You are now at Shoni aka Crafty Inknik's Blog. 

DAY 22 of the 31 Days of Halloween event, hosted by Smeared Ink and the Smeared and Smudged Forum.  To find out who the daily winners are click HERE, also Terra's Blog.  She is the first one on the Wicked Blogger List located to your left.

 

The Smeared and Smudged Forum has a place to Swap.  I have gotten myself in trouble and burning the 3:00 am oil because I signed up for 1 too many.  So, having learned my lesson, I only do 2 a month.  What is great is that this is an ATC swap, which I do not do that many of.

 

This month was a Monochromatic Color Challenge using Halloween colors.  I chose shades of orange.

 

Daunting Details

I used ink pad directly onto watercolor paper, Apricot Appeal (retired).  Then went over with Aqua Painter to spread out the ink.

Face images are from the Prints (March 2013) set from the Smeared Ink Rubber Club past offerings.  They are stamped in Tangerine Tango, then Tangerine Tango Embossing Powder over each image and heat set.

Finger smears are also a stamp from the Prints set.  They are stamped in Pumpkin Pie ink.

I used the Cajun Craze marker to write "Spirits are out tonight".

Saying is stamped with Cajun Craze ink and is from Creepy Lil' Grumpies (September 2013) Smeared Ink Rubber Club.

Edges are inked with Pumpkin Pie ink.

 

Paper layers are:

Pumpkin Pie DP (retired), Tangerine Tango card stock, Peach Parfait card stock (retired).

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