The Burtonesque Dolls Challenge #5

This week at The Burtonesque Dolls we are showcasing digi stamps from Tiddly Inks.  I had played with a few of these before I became a DT for TBD and think they are just adorable!!  Christy has a new Goth line but many other VERY cute images.  

This week's challenge is to create a card or project with Sleepy Hollow-ish scenery... think funky trees, pumpkins, and elements from these photos and put your hero/heroine in that scene.  

I chose to build a side step card, although no matter how many times I took a picture, never could quite capture the steps as much as in real life.  I used Gossmere from Tiddly Inks for this week's card, kindly donated to all the DT's from Christy.  Thanks!

We can't wait to see your take on Sleepy Hollow. You have until 10:00 p.m. Pacific (USA) on Monday, June 7th to link your creations for a chance to win the Tiddly Inks prize!

Dad's Birthday

I r bad.  I don't know how time gets away from us so quickly.  My dad's birthday is tomorrow but I knew it was coming for....oh....A YEAR!!  And I'm STILL late!!  Lucky for me he's a long distance truck driver so hopefully I can get it to his house before he gets back.  LOL!!

I used 3 challenges to help me finish up this card today:

Dare U 2 Digi Stamp - This week is "One For The Boys"

Creative Accents - They challenged us to use these colors:

Sunday Sketch & Stamp - sketch and you have to stamp an image.  My stars are stamped and wow had it been a lot time since I used that one!! 

I put crackle on the arrows just to add something MAN bling I suppose.  LOL!

My First Burtonesque Dolls Challenge as a DT Member

I am so happy to show you my first card as a member of the Burtonesque Dolls and join them in their 4th challenge "An Affair To Remember".  This week we are partying with the Busy Beauties gals, Carolyn and company, who are sponsoring our challenge with a chance to win 5 images.  YES 5 IMAGES!!!

This week's inspiration comes from Timothy Burton's "The Corpse Bride".  Create a new card, ATC, scrap page or project including this theme.  

I am also including 2 other challenges with my card today:

Stamptacular Sunday who requested pearls and swirls

Cute Card Thursday who offered this sketch.

On a wedding day it's all about the bride so I focused on her and her bouquet, of which were very dead flowers, in "The Corpse Bride" and used an image from Busy Beauties Boutique called "Emily~The Bride".

So grab an image and join me in this week's challenge!!
