SMUDGY ANTICS and MACABRE MONDAY

This fortnight at SMUDGY ANTICS, we want to see who has the GUTS and the BLOODY SPARKLE-TUDE to play along with our challenge.  Our hearts will beat outside of our chests with pride, glistening in the light of the glittering sun.  In case you haven't guessed the theme yet...or haven't looked at the title of the post (DUH) the theme this fortnight is 
GLITTER AND GORE.

The choice is NOT OPTIONAL.  YOU MUST USE BOTH GLITTER AND GORE in this challenge or your project will not qualify for a prize.  If you don't own any gory or scary stamps, Smeared Ink has plenty of digis in their shop that fit the bill.  If you are super strapped for cash, you may use any stamp, even a cute one, as long as you add both glitter and gore.  I have seen some amazingly gory Magnolia projects out there in blogland so there is no excuse NOT to play.

We can't wait to see what you guys and gals make!
Remember to use a stamped image (real or digi) 
  Only the best will win so get your mojos on the ready and get creative. 


As i dont usually do either Glitter or Gore... this was a hard challenge for me. The quirky love card above is what i came up with. The heart is a rubber stamp from SMEARED INK, stamped 6x, colouredith promarkers and fussy cut.... dipped in my melting pot. Very thing else is from my stash apart from the glitter card i had to borrow off my girls. I hope you'll be able to join us this fortnight.


Next up we have MACABRE MONDAY.... its the second week .
Our  Macabre Monday challenge is :

Skeletal Remains
We are not actually goading you into doing a Burke and Hare on us! What you can do is get down to the nitty gritty with anything relating to skeletal remains e.g. skulls, skeletons and bones etThis fortnight we are lucky enough to be sponsored by 

The Octopode Factory.
 I used 3x OCTOPODE images on these cards...... and i think have very different results.
I coloured all the images with promarkers..... and the background on the bottom card.
Hope you'll join us at HDH..... this time round.
