DAY #24 OF THE 31 DAYS, MACABRE MONDAY and SMEARED INK.

Happy Monday and welcome to day 24 of the the 31 days.... today i have a few things to share with you guys.... 1st up as its Monday its gotta be MACABRE....... our new challenge is.....

Movie Madness: Pumpkinhead

You are to create a dark, Gothic, or Halloween-based art piece
that is inspired in some way by that 'gourd-geous' B flick,
Pumpkinhead.
If you are one of the shameful few who have not seen the movie
(you know who you are!), then at the very least,
your project MUST include a pumpkin or a jack o lantern.
See? We know how to play nice.

I confess to being one of the shameful few who hasn't seen the movie.... and i have no intention of ever doing so! I like my horror movies in black and white.... no blood guts or gore.... and preferably with Vincent Price ,Peter Cushing or Boris Karloff in it!


I found images off the internet to make a collaged card.... a necklace and a matching box...... (if you enter the challenge this week you are in with a chance of winning them...poor you..... you can always not claim your prize..... thats happened before when i've offered up a prize.)
The necklace is 'old gold' coloured findings and chain.... asymmetrical....with pinky/peach glass pearls.... and Pumpkinhead sent into a mount at the centre bottom chain... with a flower!
The box is topped with a 'tile' i made using utee.... some acrylic and metal flowers and feathers, glitter paper ribbon.
We hope you can play along with us minions this week.... its an easy one for you 31 dayers ..... PUMPKINS!


Next up we have a new challenge for you at the SMUDGYANTICS..... http://smudgyantics.blogspot.com/ .....the challenge is LEATHER AND LACE.....plus you must use at least one SMEARED INK IMAGE.



I used POE from QUOTE THE RAVEN.....stamped onto shrink plastic and made into a flower rosette thingy..... i brought this bag in the sales this summer and decorated it to goth it up a bit!







The 3 zips have chains, beads and tiny velvet bows..... a large red crystal heart and the POE/LACE FLOWER.




I hope you can find time to play along this week... leather and lace..... I LOVE 'EM!



the full blog roll is on my sidebar.... we're in the last full week.... where has October gone?

  10. Wow! So many projects, so little time to comment on all of them. But, the jewelry is fabulous and the box it goes in is to die for. Probably ought not to be saying that this time of the year. The purse ornamentation is super imaginative and the card is my favorite of all of it!

    P.S. Have you ever done any works with Ambrose Bierce? I'm a direct family relation and proud of his dark macabre works. Would love to show off to the family if you have. Just thought I'd ask. Thanks :)
