HDH136 - True Blood

Well I have been so out of sorts this last couple of weeks and it just keeps coming.  I forgot to post my Haunted Design House post.  Real clever but it seems to be the way at the moment.

This week (what is left of it!)  the challenge theme is True Blood.  If you haven't seen it and still want to enter then anything vampre, werewolf, shapeshifer, goddess, faerie etc will do.

My projects are extremely gaff but I don't even have an excuse.  This is supposed to be V (vampire blood which in True Blood gives you a high).  I used food colouring and raspberry jam.

The cupcake is two jam marks and the teeth are polymer clay and also the attachment to the bottle is red beads and polymer clay with a plastic dome on top.

You still have until Sunday to enter so pop on over and check out the delicious projects the guys have come up with.

Tickled Pink Challenge #33

This is my first time with the tickled pink stamps challenges and this week it is anything goes so I thought kill two birds with the one stone.  It is my niece's birthday so I made her a card using the vampire tickled pink digi stamp as we all know most young people are in to vampires these days.  When I was young I was uncool because I liked vampires and now it is cool hmph haha.

I coloured her with distress inks and a red copic for the blood in the glass.  I made the coffin at the bottom and the bat and the skull is one of creepy glowbuggs skulls which you can buy here.  I made the flower it is attached to with different materials.  I also used some tim holtz tissue tape hobgoblin.  I made up some tickets printed them out and used some distress inks on them then added the lettering.

Well that's enough of my havering.

HDH097 - Loathsome Lotharios

Haunted Design House -  Loathsome Lotharios

This week the challenge is to create a dark, Gothic, or Halloween-based art piece representing a rake, libertine, a scoundrel, or a seducer... a man who obsessively seduces and deceives women, and create something that represents your desire or disgust.

I have used a simply betty steampunk image and made him a vampire who uses woman for their tasty blood as well as the naughties.  This is a digital entry.

Now the team have come up with some wonderful stuff so I recommend you go and have a peek and if you are inspired then play along.  Pop here and get your fill.

HDH076 - Love Bites

Over at Haunted Design House the challenge this week is Love Bites.  Romance is dead, and we want to see that in your artwork.

Now I chose to make a vampire teeth brooch and have blood drips dangling.  One of which says love bites and the other is a little ghostly face.  The tin was an old altoid mints one that I decorated with nail polish (yes I know it's supposed to be for your nails!).  I used a strange skins digi, the key for the tin.  They have some great horror images and other images for the less squeamish 

Even though the vamps teeth have been removed, she still loves him and keeps them in a tin.

Below is the image that is inside one of the blood drips, originally it was to be a tear drop but for obvious reasons that didn't work but I love this little ghostly image so....

Below again is the vamp teeth brooch.

And below here is the tin with the strange skin digi swirly key which is only $4 to purchase and you can purchase a heart that they key is linked with.   There are a few sets like this but don't listen to me go have a peek.
