SSD Mother's Day

Hello all!
This week's Sassy Studio Designs' DTBST challenge
is to create a Mother's Day project!


I created a card using
Super Sassy Mom


A fairly simple card design…
I colored the image with pencil colors and fussy cut.
She was adhered to a white panel. I stamped the sentiment
and added sequin stars with jewels.

We hope you'll join in at
Sassy Studio Designs!
We'd love to see your Mother's Day projects!

Dark 'n' Daring Challenge #1

Hello all!
I'm excited to be on the DT for a new challenge blog called
This challenges is for creations that are
Dark, Sexy or  Goth type.

Now these are not typically the type of creations I create
but I think it's good to step out of your comfort zone
and have fun with something a little different than your norm.

This is a monthly challenge that starts on the third of the month
and the theme is always "Anything Goes" as long as it's
Dark, Sexy or Goth!

Using Redhead Cutie from out sponsor this month

I chose to take this "daring" image and turn it a little dark
by adding a little pen work and darker colors around the eyes and lips.
I added some black tulle and a skull to the flower.

So what do you think?
Is this a style you like to create or one you'd like to try?
We'd love to have you join us at
Dark 'n' Daring!
