From My "WEB" to Yours!




WELCOME TO
"Twisted" Thursday
#24
Hosted by the
Ladies with Attitude
&
Shirley's 2 Girls
Today's "TWIST" is to use ORANGE & PURPLE on your project. I do have both colors but the orange was a bit more challenging for me. Sometimes my projects just take on a mind of their own and today that circle in the background of the sketch was "screaming" SPIDER!! How perfect is that sentiment for my project? Did you notice the Spider web that I zig zag stitched back & forth from the upper right hand corner. No paper piecing today, Jinx was colored using Copics. I added a little Angel Wingz Shimmerz to the spider web on the image , as well as, directly onto the threads of my stitched web.
As you know I have been on a seriously crazy Challenge kick this week and I would love for you Play along with myself and the other Ladies with Attitude.

The "TWISTED" Details:
  1. Create a project using today's Sketch pattern

fa-BOO-licious BLOG HOP

BOO
did I scare you?

WELCOME to STOP #3 on Shirley's 2 Girls very first HALLOWEEN Blog Hop
(make sure to read all the way down-this might be long but I have tons of photos today)

If you haven't already heard, Shirley's 2 Girls is releasing 13 fa-BOO-licious new images TODAY. To have a SCREAMIN' Good Time start today's blog hop----> HERE <---- Make sure to visit each of the Ladies with Attitude TODAY and leave each one a comment because some lucky commenter is going to win a SPOOKTACULAR Prize..... I have no clue where the Mystery Prize is hidden so make sure to leave comments on each post but that's not all, there will also be a Grand Prize Winner drawn via Random.org. The Design Team has had so much fun preparing some amazing eye candy for you...... SOOOO Without further ado, allow me to introduce
a saucy new W-itch (yes that is 'itch with a "W")
"JINX"

Is she not the Sassiest Diva you have ever seen? O MYLANTA! wait until you see the sentiments that some of these new sets come with, I swear those "Sisters" designed these while thinking of ME.
This just might be my All Time Favorite project but where do I begin? The frame that I spray pained? The cork board? Altered Letters? O YES "JINX", The main image is on a patterned paper with subtle cracks and distressing. I colored directly over this using Copics. Her dress is paper pieced but the right side was left raised just a tad to give a more 3-dimensional effect, I lightly colored her dress underneath so that it looks like a shadow if looking from the side. I dirtied her up a bit by sponging the edges and then accidentally dropping my black stamp pad but decided that I liked the spot on her stockings.
I used two different dark yellow inks and a sponge to color the moon.

This fun little bat is from one of the Inchie sets also being released today. He too is stamped on a subtle patterned paper, punched using a circle punch then adhered on top of two scalloped circles. Holding the center of the image, I pulled the scallops towards me to give more dimension.
WAIT, I'm so not finished
I love "JINX" so much I couldn't stop, so I created another project! I warned you this was going to be long. So what do you think JINX is brewing up in the kettle of hers? Sangria? Hot Toddy? I think she is making Vino!

I purchased a 4 pack of Cabernet in the small bottles then created and covered the original wine labels using one of the Sentiments included in this new set (jinx potion-912). The sentiment on the front of the box is also included in this set but I added a simple black line under the word "Drink". No paper piecing on this image, she was colored using Copics. I did a thumping technique on her clothes using a colorless blender to give her outfit some texture. I added Angel Wingz "Shimmerz" to the bubbles, as well as to the spider web.

This photo shows a before and after photo of the wine bottle along with some of the supplies I used. I used scalloped rectangle Nestabilities on the labels. Did you happen to notice the purple spider paper? That is one of the new Digi Papers being released today also. After printing a sheet of it out, I used Nestabilities Label 1 to cut out the piece for the front of the box and then from the scraps I used a small circle punch to punch out 8 spiders. There is a spider on each label, as well as, the top of each bottle.
This photo shows the tools I used to cover the box that the wines came in. I covered the sides with black card stock then to give a more complete finish, I covered the corners with 2" strips of lavender CS. I simply scored down the middle of each then used an edge punch along each side and glued them over the raw edges.
Are you having fun yet??
