Tragic Love at Simply Steampunk Challenges

It's time for our monthly challenge over at the Simply Steampunk Challenges blog...

Tragic Love is the theme. 

I'm sharing Hades & Persephone 3 by the ever talented artist Abigail Larson. Her images are sold in digi format over at Simply Betty Stamps. 

 
The heart easel card is by Bird's Cards and the Steampunk Heart is a file I created and offered in a previous post for free. Both were cut using my Silver Bullet Professional. Flowers and accessories are from my stash.

Copics used: 

E00,07,09,18,41,42,44,47,49,50,53,93

N0,2,4,6,8,10

R14

G94,99

YG67

B01,12,14

So grab a steampunk image and play along...if you choose a Simply Betty digi, that will be even better...but not required. Use blood splatters, torn hearts, sad love images.  Show us your interpretation of a Tragic love, not a happy one this time around...remember Hades and Persephone, Romeo and Juliet, all the stories that weren't that happy!

 Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have a blessed and creative day!

Until later,
 

Show Girl Betty

Betty at Simply Betty Stamps threw out a challenge to use this beauty in a card/project immediately...so I couldn't resist! You have to use Cream/Brown somewhere on your project and glitter.

If you would like to purchase her, click HERE, and you can play along. You have until Feb 4th @ 6:00pm PST to upload your project.

There is a prize involved...a custom digi of yourself, created by Betty!! How much fun is that????

Here is my version of Show Girl Betty

I used my copics to color her (sorry, I completely spaced and forgot to write down my colors!!) I did a PnC using SCAL on my Silver Bullet Professional for Show Time Betty and the Tickets...it is so spot on and such fun to do!

Isn't she TOTAL GLAM??!!

Thanks for stopping by today, I hope you have a blessed and creative one!

I'm entering this in the following challenge:
613 Ave Create Challenge #56 Anything Goes/Optional Twist - Gift Set

 

Romance Annie

Hello all, today I'm so excited to showcase one of the fabulous Steampunk Romance Digis by Abigail Larson available exclusively at SBS. The images from this collection are nothing short of fantastic!

Today I am showing Romance Annie.

Since I'm in the middle of my Christmas Card making, I thought to have this beauty ready for a party. So she has a little extra "sparkle" added to her. 

I used my Silver Bullet professional and SCAL combo to do a print and cut of the digi and then colored her with my copics. I used the 6x6 paper pad from My Minds Eye called Christmas for the designer papers. The embellishments were pulled from my stash.

The copic colors used were:

E00,25,29,50,53,93

N2,4,6,8,10

G40,43,46,85,99

R14,22,27,59

Don't forget about our challenge for this month...it's "Anything Steampunk". So, grab an image - either stamp or digi - and the bits and bobs of steampunk world, and play along. We would love it if you chose an SBS image, but it's not required. I hope you will join in on the fun and we love to see your art!

Until next time, I wish you a blessed and creative day!

13 Days of Halloween - Day / Challenge 11

Hey y'all, I'm back today with challenge #11...and I feel like I'm running a marathon...whew...

So for the 11th challenge it's...

a famous Ghoul from an all time favorite movie or spooky story!

(don't forget that it has to be an SBS image)

So for this one I have used Lola Kruger in digi and made a tag.

I used Copics to color Lola Kruger and my Silver Bullet Pro / SCAL combo to cut her & the message of sweet dreams out. The graveyard was also cut with my SBPro.

Until the next challenge...I hope you have a blessed and creative day!
