31 Days of Halloween - Day 30

Happy Halloween Eve!!!  CAW!! CAW!!!!  It is almost the day we have been waiting for!~  Hope you are ready.

Alex created a card today using an image by Kraftin' Kimmie.  I think the best part is the dancing skeleton in the corner.  Alex thinks it is the paper.  We hope you have enjoyed all of Alex's creations this month and look forward to seeing you again tomorrow!  I can hardly believe this month is almost finished.  No worries though, Alex and I are 'in negotiations' regarding my future gigs and access to life outside my cage.  Cross your fingers for me!

Happy Halloween!

31 Days of Halloween - Day 25

Oh my, Alex went crazy today!!!  and by crazy I mean crazy fabulous!!!  I can't wait for you to see this one!

This is Moaning Moira by Kraftin' Kimmie available at SCACD.  It is even on sale!  That rockin' background paper is part of the Authentique Glowing paper pack.  The bat was made with a mold and the Viva Decor Crystal Effects then painted to coordinate and accented with the metallic rub-ons.

31 Days of Halloween - Day 11

It is here, challenge two for Beyond The Burtonesque Dolls.  This weeks challenge is The Art and Works of Terry Gilliam.  Now, Alex really, really wanted to create something with a great big foot stomping on it.  However, that was as far as she could get the creative idea to go, so she had to switch gears.

She went with being inspired by one of her favorite movies, Time Bandits.  If you have not seen this movie, you should AND it is family friendly, especially if you have boys.  So- are you ready to see the end result?

Isn't that potion dude/dudette fabulous?  It is one of the Kraftin' Kimmie Halloween stamps that are currently on sale at SCACD.  The clocks, the different places in the script in the background, it is all about the movie.  Only thing better would have been a ship, but she wanted to use this image and really, it is better for the Halloween theme going on this month soooooo I guess she wins this one. (just don't tell her I said that, she might think she is running the show or something)

Happy Halloween!

Mizuki

I absolutely love this fabulously wonderful lady.  Her name is Mizuki. Such a lovely Japanese name for her.

After stamping and coloring her I pulled out the fabulous Chapter 1 by Kaisercraft.  The circle and sentiment are also from the pack.  There are several specialty sheets in the back with tags, borders, circles, strips, etc.  I just LOVE that about the Kaisercraft papers.  The sentiment reads 'Anything unattempted remains impossible.' 

I hope you adore her as much as I do.  There are several fabulous Kraftin' Kimmie stamps at SCACD including the new Angel collection and, my favorite, some fabulous Halloween ones! 

Get Inky!

It is coming!!!!!!

Halloween is COMING!  WOOOOOOOO WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!  Halloween is my very FAVORITE creative time of the year.  My closet (or not so closet depending on how well you know me) Goth gets to come out and play!  Once again I will be participating in the 31 Days of Halloween with a bunch of other super talented people.  Edgar has begged to play again as well, I am certainly thinking about it.

In the meantime, I have to let you know that Susana at SCACD has some FABULOUS items for Halloween in the store, AND she even brought back in some of last year's Kraftin Kimmie Halloween stamps for those of you that missed out before.

Hattie

Mitzi

There are also all of the ones from the new release this year as well.  In addition, she has paper galore and the fun Halloween stamps by Teresa Collins.  Oh be still my ghastly heart!

These are just a couple of them.  You can find all of the holiday paper right HERE and you better be prepared to do some serious shopping :)

Now go- Get Inky!

Talullahbelle

Talullahbelle, how perfect a name for a fairy!  I mean really, it is FABULOUS!!!  She is fabulous as well.

Talullahbelle is one of several new fairies by Kraftin' Kimmie available at SCACD.  All of them are fun and spunky, but I just love this one's name.  I paired her with some of the new 6x6 paper, Echo Park's For the Record.  Her wings are painted with Blue Ice Inspirations paint and the yellow pearls were created with a Viva Decor pearl pen in yellow.

Scrappy Frogs - Anything Goes
Fashionista Friday #78 - Green

31 Days of Halloween - Day 21

Welcome to day 21!  Alex and I are sharing another stylin' gal with you today.  Her name is Mitzi Mummy and she is a Kraftin' Kimmie stamp from SCACD.  The Halloween ones are currently on sale BTW and the new Holiday stamps are in too (but not part of the sale)!!!

Now Mitzi seems to have the same problem as her friend Zelda and hasn't quite come to terms with being dead.  She is all ready for a night on the town.  She is even working the bling in the belly button and has on her sexist wrap!

In Mitzi's honor Alex has worked to do an appropriate job accessorizing her setting.  It just wouldn't be right for her to hit the town under dressed!  The paper is from the Memory Box Blackbird pack.  The gauze is actually the Linen Weave Magic Mesh in Wedding White trimmed and distressed.

The flowers are Petaloo and the black is one of the Maya Road chipboard flowers colored with markers to match.  The pearls on the bottom left were made with Viva Decor Pearl pen in black. Alex sure loves those Viva Decor pens.  I have to keep an eye on her so she doesn't "Viva" the whole house!

Alex also told me I could tell you to be sure and pay attention.  There is some amazing BLOG Candy coming up on the SCACD store blog this weekend and a new surprise artist.  SHHHHHHH!

Happy Halloween!
Edgar

31 Days of Halloween - Day 10

Well, I see you have made it to the double digit days and I must say I am pleased.  I was a bit worried you might tire of me and insist I return Alex to you.  Glad you appreciate my commentary even if they are her creations.  Why don't we just tell her you only come by to see me, Edgar Allen Crow, and that her projects are just a bonus ;)

Today I am sharing a card made using a stamp she purchased from SCACD as part of the Kraftin' Kimmie Halloween collection.  I have 'heard' that these stamps are in short supply and since Halloween is almost upon us, once they are gone, they are gone, so RUN and get yours!

Alex went for the old photo look with the sepia type tones.  It tends to lend to the creepiness factor.  Poor Hattie, she certainly looks like she has had a hard life death.  I know that I had to peck Alex's hand a couple of times to prevent her from adding a sentiment that said "Happy Mother's Day".  With her twisted thinking, she found that funny.  Crazy lady, someone better rescue me after this month, please!

Hope to see everyone back tomorrow for day 11!

Haunted House.....

This is the new Haunted House stamp by Kraftin' Kimmie I got from SCACD.  I think is it FUN.  I was going to save it for my 31 Days of Halloween, but just couldn't!

The image is stamped in Momento ink and then colored in with markers.  The background paper is from Basic Grey Eerie collection and that fabulous skull is from a seller on ETSY.

Isn't it soooooooooo much better than a sentiment?  (insert evil laugh here)
