Special Challenge Month at Dream in Darkness with Sin City Stamps!

What an awesome month this is going to be!  Our own CT Kim is the new owner of Sin City Stamps!!  And to celebrate we are all using Sin City Stamps for the whole month of March!  And that means there will be Sin City Stamps for a prize!  Here is my fun yet darkish make for this month!

This started out as one of my catch all sheets and was a fabulous blue shimmer and green and lots of white spaces.  I took some watercolors and made the light side lighter and the dark side a bit darker.  I wanted to show the ups and downs of Las Vegas with the dark and light sides.  I used every stamp in on the sheet Las Vegas Fun! and what fun it was stamping some on the actual journal page and some on white cardstock that I colored and fussy cut out.  I glued the winning hand and the big cash (which is glued on top of actual shredded money from SilverCrow Creations sent to me by CT Anne) and on the loosing side a small stack of cash and small amount of shreds of cash.  Lots of color play and embossing on Grumbacher modeling paste which turned out fabulously!

I hope you will visit Dream in Darkness Challenge Blog and enter your odd, weird, dark, steampunk, in any media form this month!  And please go to Sin City Stamps and check out all the fabulous stamps Kim has ready for you to order and have in hand to create!

Never Trust a Skinny Cook?

I have always heard that but as I could never cook anyway could not prove or disprove it!  But this little board kitchen is certainly suggesting it maybe true.  The stamps are from Rubber Bandit and the set is "Kitchen Scales Set".  The little people waiting to be added to the stew when the cook digests that whole crow sitting in her tummy or where it was at one time are from Silvercrow Creations.  The paints are by DecoArt: gesso, crackle paste, antiquing cream, red iron oxide, matte medium. The skelly's head that goes against all things scientific is mine drawn and colored with Prisma colored pencils.  The brain waiting for her zombie boyfriend (so easy no cooking required!) is polymer clay painted after baking to look zombiefied.  And no she is not picking her nose!  That is a piece of chocolate bar in her hand!  

So up to you whether to trust her or not....as for me no thanks.  And the knife in her hand is only for caring up the ravens and sometimes a fly...she is not violent not a violent bone in her body!
