Punk you Girl Lavish Lace

We are halfway through our challenge at Punk You Girl and this months theme is Lavish Lace

Here's my card

The image is Black Widow by Delicious Doodles and shes coloured with Artist coloured pencils, my lace and spider charm are from my stash.  My paper is from the 12 by 12 Gorjuss girls pack.  My best wishes sentiment is a magazine freebie and made me smile as the look in her eye says she doesnt wish the best i think!

Im not particularly scared of spiders but the way the spiders are curled round her hand makes my skin crawl!

We are sponsored by Stitchy Bear and i hope you will pop along to the challenge blog here for all the details of this challenge.

Maigan Lynn Card red, black and white

I've been desperate to get colouring another of my fab Maigan Lynn digis and decided to try a red, black and white theme, here's my card

My background papers are Papermania, my dies are Cheery Lynn and I gave them a wee rub with Creative Expressions gilding wax, gems from my stash.  I kept it quite simple as the image is just stunning! I loved colouring it with my Polychromos.
                                           

I could look at this image all day imagining all sorts of stories, where are the batgirl and her rabbit like companion going in their steamship? I love images that make me think! You will find all Maigan Lynn's amazing digis on Etsy.

I would like to submit my card to apply to the DT call for the new challenge blog A Step in the Dark. I love all areas of crafting but have recently accepted  that cute and cuddly is just not me as I find myself increasingly drawn to the dark side!  I love all things gothic, emo and edgy.  It would be an amazing opportunity and I would be honoured to be considered.

Creative Fingers Glitter challenge

It's time for a new challenge at Creative Fingers and this week we have a fab new sponsor Nikki Brunette, I have been admiring her work on Etsy here and was delighted to get an image to play with, here's my card

I wanted to try some different colours for a sea/mermaid picture so I went for pink, purple and black.  My gorgeous image is coloured with WH Smith coloured pencils, my backing paper is Prima and my die cuts are Marianne, some gems from my stash to finish.  I've kept it quite simple as I loved the image so much and it took me so long to colour!  Our theme this week is glitter and I have glittered her tail, hair and flowers but you can hardly see it from my photo lol!

Please pop along to the challenge blog for all the details of this week's challenge.

Punkyougirl Fairy Tales Gone Bad mid challenge reminder

I have some very exciting news I have joined the Design Team of the Punkyougirl challenge blog!  I am a huge fan of this darkly delicious blog and am honoured to join the team.  I am so excited to work with the talented and lovely ladies on the team and can't wait to explore my dark side!

We are midway through a challenge and the theme is Fairy Tales Gone Bad. Here's my card

My licence ML4776-Esperitecrafting

My digi stamp is from an amazing artist I discovered on Etsy and here is the link to her shop Fantasy Art of Maigan Lynn I couldn't resist ordering a few digis along with this one as I just love her style!

I coloured it with artist colouring pencils all except the black between the trees which I did with a promarker as I couldn't get it as dark as I wanted with a pencil! My dies are sizzix and my backing paper is Prima, ribbons and lace from my stash and black cosmic shimmer dots to finish.

There is something quite sinister in the image that I love, it makes me wonder why are red riding hood and the wolf together? And where is Grandma! To add to the creepiness I added a touch of blood to the wolves lips and the axe in the background.

I can't wait to see all the entries in our Fairy Tales Gone Bad challenge, we are a dark themed challenge so we are looking for projects that follow the theme and have a dark edge e.g. horror gothic etc
