Smudgy Antics Color Challenge DT Project Week #2

 Smudgy Antics is on Week #2 of the Color Challenge.  

Get working on those wonderful ideas and enter your project.  

The Design Team has some tasty eye candy for you today.  

You must use at least 3 of the colors, which are: 

Dark Grey, Magenta, Dark Green, Black, and Dark Orange.

I used 4 colors, Dark Grey, Magenta, Dark Green, and Black.

I  was inspired to make some candy holders, after seeing Day 7 of Croms' Cubby Hole, or Helen (second on the 31 Days of Halloween Wicked Blogger List).  I did not use TP rolls, but love the idea of these fun little candy holders.

I debated on putting the bat on or not, but went ahead in the spirit of the month.  

So don't wimp out on that one scarey house while trick-or-treating...you know they have the best candy, the BIG chocolate bars!

Creaking Details

Candy Holders
One of Smeared Ink's new wonderful digital papers was used for the design on the boxes.  I used Red Butterfly from the Madame Butterfly set.  I used Picasso to change the color to Magenta and Dark Gray.  Then printed out on Whisper White card stock (CS).

I also used the digi set Calaveras from Smeared Ink.  It is hard to see but I used Sugar Skulls #3, #4 and the Candle.  I printed the images in black onto the same CS as before.

CS was cut in half and used with Candy Wrapper Die (retired) from Stampin' Up!.
Ends were colored in with Basic Gray ink and Aqua Painter.

I tied them all together with Black 1/8" Taffeta Ribbon (SU!).

Front Image
Image is from one of the sets drawn by Rick St. Dennis for the Smeared Ink Rubber Club, called Haunted Places #2 - September 2013.  It is stamped in Black Staze On onto Whisper White cs.

Colored in with markers and Blender Pen.
I added a shadowy figure just inside the door with a black Sharpie.
Crystal effects on door entry.
Finished image was fussy cut and adhered to front.

Oh! The Horror! #2 & Haunted Design House Challenges

Getting in the mood for some of that Halloween candy!  I am not a big taffy fan, but Walmart (yes the devil) has the best Corn Candy Taffy.  And I can only get it this time of year, where I live anyway. 
Time to stock up and get the munch on! 

I had to do another project for the Smeared Ink Forum, Oh! The Horror! challenge.  I went a little too deep last post and wanted to do something a little more fun.  The movie was Transylvania 6 - 5000.  Funny monsters who are not what they seem to be.  The main goal of the movie was to get a picture of Frankenstein.  So here is a picture of this loveable guy in his short shorts and ready for some candy.

I am also going to enter this project into the Haunted Design House challenge.  Challenge #176 - Who Are You Suppose To Be?  I love the idea of this challenge because it is suppose to bring out your inner demon of what character you were or wanted to be for Halloween, but could not.  I was ALWAYS a ghost.  Got a sheet, cut some holes, and had dad go to the hardware store for some chain.  Done.  I was too scared to really dress up and would love to have gone as one of the iconic monsters,  Frankenstein being one of them.
