Anything Goes at A Step in the Dark

Today is my final challenge as GDT at ASITD and I want to thank the lovely ladies for letting me hang with them.  It's really been fun!  The challenge this fortnight is ATG, sponsored by Smeared Ink.  To tell you the truth, I had so many ideas I got a bit overwhelmed with making a decision  (I've got TONS of Smeared Ink Stamps, both digi AND rubber!), but I had a particularly rough day and this was the result.  It's a simple AJ page using, one of the digi papers from the Cranium Pack.  The image is from the Chicks Dig Guns set, colored with Copics and fussy cut.  I changed the color of the paper in my Printmaster Program to a lovely blood red.  The sentiment is computer generated.  Guess which "spree" I chose.  LOL   Be sure to stop by ASITD to see the fab makes by the DT and come play along.

I'm also entering this in the Smudgy Antics Challenge on the Smeared and Smudged Forum.

Another ATC For A Couple More Challenges

This was actually the planned ATC for the Wicked Wednesday Zodiac Challenge featuring Leo from the Delicious Doodles Horrorscope range.  It so happens to be for my fave Leo, my DB DT sis, the Queen Bee (or should I say of the jungle, LOL) of Wicked Wednesday, and my dear friend Jenn.  Happy Birthday, Chickie!

The image is printed 3 times, fussy cut and popped for the current Fussy Cutting Challenge at Smudgy Antics.  The tiny Leo symbol was found on the net.  It just so happens that our current Macabre Monday Challenge at HDH is also Astrological Atrocities featuring more images from Minion Sister Teri's Horrorscope set.  She is also this fortnight's sponsor so be sure to check out HDH to see more of the images and play along to WIN THE ENTIRE SET!!  I'm on Team B so you'll see my "official" take this next Monday.  Conveniently, the Delicious Doodles Challenge is Anything Goes so WooHoo for that, too.

I'm also entering this in the Left of Center using the LOC theme, and Simon Says Wednesday Anything goes Challenge.

TOFF Inspired by Music Challenge

The current challenge at Octopode is Inspired by Music and with all the hoopla about The Great Gatsby, I came up with this wall hanging.  Been dying to use one of the fab newish Flappers and this is Coco.  I searched the web for some music from the era and did a digital collage with Coco on top. (Sooo happy that the image comes in png form as well as jpg).  The keyboard and dark music is from a Graphic 45 Curtain Call 8x8 pad, the notes, Cuttlebug dies from scraps, and the "All that Jazz" Computer generated using the Theater font.

Coco is colored with Copics and I used maribou feathers for her skirt and adhesive pearls for her jewelry.  Isn't she gorgeous?  Not exactly sure that this is dark enough for the Smudgy Antics Fur and/or Feathers Challenge, but I added the real feathers with that challenge in mind.  Wouldn't you seriously LOVE a dress like that?

I'm also entering this in the Creative Inspirations "Inspired by Anything Goes" (in this case The Great Gatsby) challenge and the DLArt May Linky Challenge.
