Everyone Loves a good book

Hi there, hope your week is going well for you!  It's time for a new challenge at Creative Moments.  We are being sponsored by East Wind and they have some really cute images so be sure to check them out!  We have a recipe challenge for you this time it is 1 layer, 3 flowers and 2 charms.  We are also having a DT call so if you are interested in joining a fun team be sure to add DT after your name when you enter the challenge!


I have used Lucy Loo Bookaholic, I just loved her hair and the little kitty perched up on top her big doo!  My image is colored with copics, and then I fussy cut her out and popped her on a single sheet of DP.  I decided to use a colored card base to add a little pop to the single layer.  I added a heart charm and bead over the original heart on the image.
I hope you will find time to join in our challenge, thanks for stopping by!

Hugs,

The Bone Queen will see you!

Happy Hump day to you, hope your week is going well and that the rest of it just flies by.  We have a special challenge starting today at Aurora Wings.  It is all Gored Up!  That's right we want you to have fun...we want to see BLOOD, guts or whatever your creative dark side comes up with.  I have to say I was a little hesitant as I have never done anything like this but once I got started I had so much fun with it! 


I have used "Bone Queen" and gored her up by adding blood dripping out of her eyes, mouth and dripping from the blood poppies!   The spider wed DP is from Basic Grey "Eerie".  The web frame is from Silhoutte, and then I used the MS punch "Droopy Goo".  I cut apart a little skeleton and used his head and hands for the top I just felt he was perfect to perch above her.  My image is colored with copics with a little stickles added to the flower centers.  I hope you join us in our challenge and let your mind run wild..................

Hugs,
