Seasons Creepings~Creepmas 2014~Day 5~Smeared and Smudged

Happy Tuesday!

It is Day 5 for the 2014 12 Days of Creepmas presented by Smeared and Smudged. For details and rules and such, written more eloquently than I can do, please hop over to our dear hostess Terra's blog HERE.

Today's project features digtal stamps by Rick St. Dennis, Creepmas Girl and Smeared Ink, Steampunk Christmas.

I printed all images onto Core'dinations card stock with an inkjet printer. My markers are Sharpies, Bic Mark It and Infinity.

I used Tim Holtz stencils and embossing ink for the harlequin diamonds and dot patterns and black embossing powder. The red is Distress Ink.

The Christmas trees is torn from an ad in a magazine :) The sentiment I created in Photoshop Elements.

Have a Creepy Tuesday!

Playtime Winter Penguin Tag~Unruly PaperArts Link Party

Happy Tuesday!
December 2........
already! WOW!

Just a quick share today. I made a gift tag using a digital stamp from Heidi at 2CuteInk. She is giving away this cute penguin until December 8th with a free signup for her newsletter.

I am also sharing this tag with the 2CuteInk Facebook group and Unruly PaperArts 12 Days of Christmas Link Party. Both spots are so much fun to play in, pop over to see the cool creations when you have a moment:)

My Merriest Wishes sweetie penguin is colored with Sharpie and Bic Mark It pens. The sentiment stamps and reindeer are Momenta. They are stamped with Potting Soil Archival Ink. "Merriest Wishes" is clear embossed with Ranger Super Fine powder.

The background is Tim Holtz Gothic stencil inked with Peacock Feathers Distress Ink. I edged the tag with Peacock Feathers also. I love this color!

I hope you like this cutie and feel inspired to check out the fun links above!

Have a beautiful day!

A tower of grumpies for your viewing pleasure today! I love the grumpies and the digi can be found HERE in the Smeared Ink Shop. C'mon you knowwww you want them:)

I am a really new colorer, so be kind:) I want to learn more and play more :)  My first coloring project is Here if you are curious:)

I did some re-sizing and flips (in my computer ofc) of these cuties. I printed them onto my on-hand stash Strathmore Mixed Media Heavy 90lb paper. I colored them using Sharpies and Bic Marks It pens. I also have a Prismacolor Colorless Blender pen.

I love my background almost as much as I love the grumpies. Please click to see it bigger:)

I colored the manila tag using Dylusion Spray Inks. The whole spraying, wetting, blotting till it was blotchy enough. Then I sprayed some more water on it and sprinkled rock salt on it. Let sit till dry. It makes the really cool spots you can see in the background in the colors.

I used a stencil and applied embossing fluid, the Ranger dabber one, onto the tag through the stencil. Then I sprinkled clear UTEE and melted it with my trusty heat gun. UTEE= Ultra Thick Embossing Enamel. It is thick and lovely. I made the raised puddles this way. 

That step gave me yummy raised bumps. Now I took my Distress Ink Embossing Pad and ran it over the raised surface. Then I sprinkled on some Verdigris EP. Melted. Inked again and this time used Distress Embossing Powder in Tea Dye, a yummy rusty brown color.

That's pretty much it, sorry for being so wordy today! If you have any questions, just ask:)

Thanks for all your lovely visits and kind comments!~hugs~
