Bloody Valentine Blog Hop with Smeared and Smudged Day 3

Welcome to the third and final day of the Bloody Valentine Blog Hop arranged by Smeared and Smudged.

My third project is quite a Clean and Simple card. I bought this fabulous image from Delicious Doodles after seeing it on a card by Wendy and thinking it was a great image, and it totally is! I printed it larger than I expected, coloured it with various red Promarkers, some green, browns and black for the blood and blood pool! I used a dark red 6x6 card base and stamped it randomly with the Visible Image 'Ripped Fishnets' background stamp and used a black inkpad on the edges of the card and the stamped image.

And then, nothing looked right on the card with it! I played about with some bits and for most of the day, the image has sat on the background and looked great as it was. And so I left it as it was - of course, as fate would have it, I glued the image on squinty!!

Now, If you are hopping the next stop is Fiona. If you have joined me randomly, why not jump back to the start and see what else is on offer! Here's the blog roll -

Bloody Valentine Blog Hop with Smeared and Smudged Day 2

Welcome to Day 2 of the Bloody Valentine Blog Hop arranged by Smeared and Smudged. This is a three day hop, so there'll be another post from me tomorrow! If you are looking for my Crafting By Designs DT Post you'll have to keep scrolling down!

Today I have made a tag. It started life as a light blue colour so that had to be changed! I used Evergreen Bough and Fired Brick distress ink pads and put a bit of colour onto a craft mat, this was spritzed with water and the tag passed through it. I then did the very same with the image and sentiment. This little guy is a Smeared Ink Grumpie with his matching sentiment - I think from the Occasions Grumpies set. I coloured the hearts with a Crimson Promarker and then added some Xmas Red Stickles.

The edges of both the tag and the image are blacked with a black ink pad. The squared stamping on the tag is a Tim Holtz stamp and the tag is finished with some red raffia and black organza.

I am linking my card up to the brand new Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers first challenge - Anti-Valentine!

Bloody Valentine Blog Hop with Smeared and Smudged Day 1

Morning everyone! Today, I am taking part in the Smeared and Smudged Bloody Valentine Blog Hop! I have two cards to show you today. The first uses an image called La Rosa Muerta from Delicious Doodles. I have coloured it in shades of purple, grey and black Promarkers and layered it up on Aubergine coloured card and Kaisercraft 13th Hour papers. I've embellished the card with a Cheery Lynn corner die and Tim Holtz Movers and Shapers Flourish.

I am linking my card up to the brand new Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers first challenge - Anti-Valentine!

The next card I've made is using an image from Eiglas called Demon Lover and I've kept this one simple. I've used a DL sized card on its side, covered it in black pearlescent paper and used the Martha Stewart Drippy Goo punch to edge some red card. I've stamped this with a 'love' stamp from my stash and the word 'Demon' is made using Craftwork Cards alphabet stamps. I've coloured the image using promarkers, you cant see his fangs very well in my photo, but hopefully the blood dripping down his chin gives you an idea!
