Macabre Monday Smudgetastic Challenge


It's another Macabre Monday and his week the newest member of the Macabre Minions, Andrea, is strutting her fabulously creative self by allowing the team access to her amazing personally drawn digis. WooHoo! We have a Smudgetastic (Andrea's blog name) challenge that requires you to use charcoal, pencils, chalk or whatever you can smudge when coloring your work (similar digi techniques allowed). Before I ever started paper crafting, my DH gave me charcoal pencils and a sketchbook to encourage my creative side and I did zip with them. Amazing I could actually find them, but I did and what better way to use them than to color Andrea's fab Bat Face.


She's cut and matted with my Nesties Large Octogons. The EK Success border punch was glittered by turning my card stock upside down in my Xyron and I finally figured out how to get my gems to stick to stick without using additional glue; stick them on BEFORE you sprinkle on the glitter...duh! Let's see how often I remember that in the future. LOL When I got her all assembled she sorta reminded me of Malificent from Sleeping Beauty and she looked like she had daggers in her eyes while gazing in the mirror (as I often do these days...getting old is not for wimps...sheesh!) hence the sentiment, computer generated. Might make a good birthday card, eh? The Gruesome Twosome and another lucky winner will receive some of Andrea's fab digis so I know you want to pull out your smudgeworthy mediums and play along. the rest of the Minions have some wonderfully creepy examples HERE.
