Week 4-Chapter 20;Twinkle Like A Bat, Shine Like A Tea Tray!

...it was at the great concert given by the Queen of Hearts, and I had to sing "Twinkle, twinkle, little bat!How I wonder what you're at!"You know the song, perhaps?' `I've heard something like it,' said Alice. `It goes on, you know,' the Hatter continued, `in this way:-- "Up above the world you fly,Like a tea-tray in the sky.Twinkle, twinkle--"'-- Chapter 7, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland
Just like the Mad Hatter's song, we want you to create something that twinkles or shines; bats are optional! Think bling, metal, glitter, mirror card; the possibilities are endless! Some of the design team will be using some very unusual Alice-inspired designs. Just like you dress up for Halloween and take on another persona, these racy images have Alice and other characters all grown up and taking a walk on the wild side!

Our sponsor this month is Smeared Ink, home of edgy, wild and fun designs in rubber and digital forms has released a Wonderland Collection; images are available individually or as a set. The randomly-chosen winner of this month's challenge will receive a $15 shopping spree in their online store.

Smeared and Smudged is an online community of rubber stampers and crafters who enjoy using alternative, Gothic, edgy, and unique stamps in their designs. We thrive on different and unusual. We welcome the macabre and devious side of things, and most of all, we embrace ALL types and styles of art. Whether or not you “come to the dark side”, your creations should be a reflection of you. At Smeared and Smudged, the most important thing is being yourself. There are lots of ways to interact with the community! [ Ning Community | Challenge Blog | Facebook Group ]

Here is my inspiration for this week.
 I used colored pencils, chalk pencils, and some stickles to add some sparkles.
Layered my cardstock and popped it up. I love how ghoulish she turned out! I know just who I am sending this one to!

Halloween Tray

I have been busy, bust, busy!

It's October and you know what that means........Spooky Halloween month.

I love Halloween!

Just look around on Facebook, Blogs and Pinterest
I am not the only one who
LOVES
HALLOWEEN.

I recently became a member of the Design Team for Glue Dots® and I thought I would start my Dottess Reign with this Spooky Tray.

So Cute and Spooky at the same time!

So take a look at the tray I made using Glue Dots®!
 This tray is plastic.....$1.99 from the grocery store, how cool is that? I just love this paper!
The paper is Echo Park Paper Co. "Chilingsworth Manor"
 Close ups....because I just knew you would want to see it closer.
 A bit closer.
 and of course I have to show you the cute trick or treaters!
Would you like to see the instruction for this tray?

Go to http://www.gluedots.com/holiday/halloween-/happy-halloween-decor.html you can get full instructions!

You can see this on Pinterest and pin it http://pinterest.com/pin/198651033534727465/
