DAY #9 OF THE 12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS and SMUDGY ANTICS NEW CHALLENGE

Welcome to day #9 of the 12 days of christmas  creepmas, the full blog roll is on my side bar, and to the new challenge at SMUDGY ANTICS.

The challenge theme this week 
is a COLOUR CHALLENGE.

Not only do you get to be inspired by VINTAGE CHRISTMAS COLOURS, but the challenge will go on for TWO WEEKS!  Yep..... We would like you to be able to play along and also have time to spend with your loved ones over the holiday season so we are giving an extra week to complete the task at hand which is to use at least 3 of the colours in the bar below.  I know monitors vary with their colours so we have named the colours as well so you may get as close as you possibly can to the colour scheme at hand.
I dare you to try to use them all ;)


Using at least one stamped image (real or digi) and following the rules posted on the left sidebar, we at Smudgy Antics challenge you to get your 
Vintage Christmas Colours on display!   Show us how crafty you can be! 
You do not need to make a vintage project, just use the vintage colours.

You can stick with paper crafting or you can go three dimensional.  The more creative, the better.  We love it when you guys and gals think outside the box!
I've made 3x ATCS.....  using CRIMSON, SAGE and LEMON
 Poe and the Skull are from SMEARED INK.
Coloured with promarkers.
 The skull is a digi image printed out 6x, fussy cut and dipped in my melting pot.
The backgrounds are DP's that i've inked and distressed.
I hope you'll join us this fortnight.
Thanks for visiting.... BDx

Beloveds,
How time doth rush by and herewith the Season of jollity and overindulgence doth come upon us.
Before I set thee thy task for this festive season, let us firstly shower salutations upon the Victor of the last Quest 15 ...................all hail.......CARLA.

So, thy current Quest shall be thusly......... POE, POE, POE -Merry Christmas  LoL
Thou art to create for the Master a card fit for the forthcoming festivities - however - they canst only be suitable for his dark and stormy nature. Rile him not with fluffies and smushies and puke rendering cuteness, lest he hie to thy Realm to smite thee. !!!
 The words above are the eloquent Ike's, who shall be sponsoring our challenge this month as well as writing our post..
I have made a card ...hopefully fit for the master. I used MERRY CREEPMAS from RICK ST DENNIS,
POE from OCTOPODE and a HAT (from WATCHFUL EYE) FROM SMEARED INK.

 All coloured with promarkers and copious amounts of black ink. I stamped extra cobwebs on my background.... added some festively tied bones....  & black and red matting and layering.

Welcome back for another challenge with Smudgy Antics!

The challenge theme this week is 
ALTER SOMETHING.

Using at least one stamped image (real or digi) and following the rules posted on the left sidebar, we at Smudgy Antics challenge you to alter an item.  
No cards will be allowed for this challenge.
Get creative and get crafting.  See how much fun it can be to turn found objects into new works of art.  Being the holiday season, perhaps you can alter an item and turn it into a gift for a loved one or make some holiday decor?
The more creative, the better.  We love it when you guys and gals think outside the box.  For those in the Smeared and Smudged Creepmas blog hop, you may combine your challenge project with your hop project as long as you meet the criteria for both. 
I altered this candle tree...... gone is the pretty snow man and cute robin..... i painted then distressed it...
 I pulled to bits a cheapy wreath and some pot purri to make a nice festive arrangement.
I printed out the front skull from SMEARED INK... ANATOMY 101 6x, fussy cut, decoupaged.... dipped in my melting pot.... you guys have seen me do this loads of times now..... i adore these dimensional fake porcelain skulls..... put him a crimbo hat on.... added small candles.... job done.... another creepmas ornament for my non-traditional dining room. Just remember when you blow out the candles to move the darned tree away from the wall.... my pale stone coloured wall is now bedecked with red wax splatters..... but as my little BD pointed out..''.we can pretend its blood splatters mum''..... what a treasure she is!
Hope you'll join our challenge this week.
