Dream in Darkness~June Challenge with Rubber Dance Stamps!

Hi There!

Today starts a new month and new challenge over on Dream in Darkness! This month we have a fabulous sponsor, Bibi of Rubber Dance Stamps!!

Bibi is so kind and generous, she sent some rubber stamps for the creative team to play with, thank you Bibi! The winner of our challenge will also get to pick some rubber, too!

I made an ATC for my project. I received the curly background, human form from the 

ATC Backgrounds 1 sheet

The snarky sentiment is from the Sarcastic Superpower sheet

I made the background with paperclay and pressed the ATC curly background stamp into it. Topped it off with some DecoArt supplies including black gesso, antiquing cream, crackle glaze and fluid acrylics. I attached the sentiment with matte medium. The crown and human form are stamped onto paint chips and fussy cut.

Let me know if you have any questions!

Hope to you play at Dream in Darkness!

There is a treat at Dream in Darkness for you from Bibi!

Hey there, how are you?

Hope your weekend is awesome!

Today, over on Dream in Darkness, we are playing along with Little Gothic Horrors with the Monster Madness Blog Party! Yay! Hop on over to have a frightfully fun Hop!

Here is my project using the awesome digi stamp by Ike's Art, Miss Frankie! She is properly called Frankinella, but I like Miss Frankie, too :) I am also sharing this at Ike's Challenge, At the Movies

The top bat is from a stencil by Panduro Hobby sent to me by the ever-awesome Granne, thank you!!

The hand and clock stamp is by Third Coast I think. It was part of a crafty destash I bought and nothing was labelled, but so fun!

No pranks, April 1st New Challenge at Dream in Darkness with SLS Lines!

Hey there, 

This April day brings the start of many new challenges and I'm sure a buncha fun pranks too! Though I don't have any April Fool's  Day play, I do have my creation for the new challenge starting at Dream in Darkness.

As many of you know, at Dream in Darkness is our challenge blog and we love to see any creation you care to make and share. Dark and Moody, Weird or Odd, Quirky or Macabre, those projects that just don't quite fit into mainstream blogs or challenges, we love for your to share and play along in our challenge.

This month we are sponsored by SLS Lines digital stamps. They offer a great variety well suited for any creative soul.

I was given the fabulous Sugar Skull with Heart Eyes to play with this month.

You can click each photo to see it a bit larger.

I printed out the digi on Neenah cardstock with an inkjet printer. I used Derwent Inktense pencils and Sharpie markers for the colors on the skull.

The background substrate is a damaged CD covered with layers of DecoArt goodness. 

My DecoArt Media Ingredients:

DecoArt Gesso

DecoArt Matte Medium

Media Misters

DecoArt Crackle paste
