HDH054 - Creepy Cute

By -
HDH Macabre Monday Rules:
1. Create a dark and macabre SOMETHING (card, scrap page, altered item, whatever) that follows the specific Macabre Monday challenge given. Cutesy is fine, but creepy is better :)
2. You have until the following Sunday night @ 5pm central time to post your creation and please leave a direct-link back here.
3. If you upload to any online galleries (TACPCC, S&S, PCP, SCS, etc.), please tag the title using HDH054.
4. Weekly giveaways! Some weeks will be loaded with loot, others not-so-much... but the thrill is in the win, right?! Some prizes shall be by random drawing, others hand picked... and I'm not telling you ahead of time :)
5. I'll be selecting a weekly Gruesome Twosome (my top two favorite creations) from all the players. At the end of every month these will be compiled and a Master of Macabre will be selected and will receive a little giftie from me... this could be stamp sets, handmade items, papers, halloweenie embellishments... you just never know.

Ok, my little pretties... your challenge this week:
Creepy Cute

You are to create a dark, Gothic, or Halloween page, project or card using cute images, but on the darkside. Turn something adorable into something abominable... something delightful into something devious... something cute into something creepy. Or just grab one of TI's Gothic cute images and start coloring ;)


Bonus: This week's challenge is being sponsored by Tiddly Inks! Christy Croll is a children's illustrator who also happens to have several delightful lines of original digital images & papers... of the cute & whimsical variety :) Christy has so generously donated a $10 & a $5 gift certificate for two winners! We'll do a random draw for the $5, and the Best of the Best will get the $10 one :) The link above will take you directly to Christy's store, but she also has a blog site here: Tiddly Inks Blog

I'll have my challenge card for you later this week (ha! maybe...), BUT some of the other Macabre Minions have some wonderful eye candy-corn for you today!!! To get the complete 411 on all of these fab projects, be sure to stop by each of their blogs and don't forget to leave the Minions a little lovin' :)

Macabre Mistress Lynx:
Another fab little box, and what is that inside?! Hmmm...


Concoctor of Chaos, Creepy Glowbugg:
Super cuteness.... LOVE those trees, and hellooooo... purple hair... what's not to love about that?!


Creepy Cricut Cween Donna:
Another Cricut card... from the darkside, and check out how Donna modified this cute digi!


Digital Demon-ess Susan:
Digi-on-digi action... wait, that sounds kinda funny... YOU know what I meant :) This house image is by far one of my personal faves from TI!!


So, wanna get your mitts on some ca-yootie patootie digi's from Tiddly Inks? Join in the fun!!

Love the DT cards and also the card you made Barb with the creepy house and the pissed off little Autumn.
I mostly love the package you sent me with all those goodies for the comment I made on your blog. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Love the card, love the kit, love it all! All of us may bow to the Mistress of Macabre!

Well, well, well, look who's opening the dungeon door... Time for some air in here! That's right, the Minions (well most of us anyway) have returned for a little play in the dungeon. We really missed each other's company, and the daring souls who liked to drop by every now and again. While we have all gone in opposite directions since the dungeon door  slammed shut a while back, we have regrouped for a bit  to share in our fondness for the dark and weirdness of our beloved Haunted Design House.  First up, we have our esteemed  Sultana of the Sinister Black Dragon The Fang-tasmogorical  Fiona Contagion of Corrosion Croms Agent of the Abominable Andrea Maniacal Mother of Mayhem Monique Cadaverous Concoctor of Chaos Creepy Glowbugg  Devilishly Deviant  Donna Spreader of Sickness Susan Thanks so much for dropping by our dungeon today.
