Sassy Perl

By -
Ok, so I'm a little behind in the Stampotique Designers Challenge, but I DID do it :)  The challenge was to make a girly-girl project.  Soooooo... here's Sassy Perl:  


I LOVE her.  Though the color palette isn't too terribly girly, I thought the big sheer bow & the flower helped :)  And how do you like the sentiment?  I KNOW!  How many times have I said this out loud?!  I picked it up at a stamp convention, so I can't remember the company.  Sorry.


Stamps:  Perl (Stampotique), unknown sentiment
Cardstock:  Bazzill, DCWV purple, & white Ultra Smooth (TAC)
Ink:  Memento Tuxedo
Other:  EK Success edger punches, Yellow Scrapper's Floss, Buttons & Blossoms (MM), ribbon (HL)
Copics:  0, BG72, BG78, V93, V95, YR20, YR23, YR24, YR02, YR18, E53


Her hair & eyeshadow turned out pretty cool.  Crossing my fingers to get to play some more this weekend!

As I'm sure you've heard me say 200 times at S&S, that I am a new colorer. and clearly, YOU are advanced!! She is totally fab. You will win!! I'm sure!!

OK. off to attempt my macabre Monday card!!

OMG! She is is glorious and probably my absolute favorite Stampotique image! Great minds think alike, because I paired that word stamp (Rubber Cottage) with Perl, too! Sooo cool! I feel like we might be Sista's of the Sinister...lol!

Perl is on my wish list. You did a fabulous job on her! I really like the dots! Very nice!
Good luck on the challenge. I actually won the Easter card challenge, and just got my free goodies in the mail yesterday. "Eric" is my new favorite image from Torrente.

I just love, love, love how you color your stamped images. In particular, I've been meaning to tell you since I saw this one of Perl (I love her too BTW) that I love how you just added these dots around her and how they jazz up the image itself. It so clever and it adds so much to the stamped image. I see things like this and I think, Wow, what an easy way to add to the image and it adds so much and yet I would have never thought of it. You clearly have a knack for coloring in images. Your works really inspires me, thank you for that. The other cool thing about it is..... instead of spending a bunch of money on all the different embellishments there are out there, you embellish with your markers. I was just in love with this technique when I saw Perl, sorry it took me so long to tell you.

May we have a quick word?

By Susan Says (Stupid Stuff) -

It's time for a new Monthly Macabre challenge here at the Haunted Design House! Please remember, this challenge is for your darker, gothic, macabre pieces, NOT your sweet and clean and suitable-for-your-pastor's-mother pieces. We understand that in a world of diversity and depth, there has to be some cute, sweet stuff out there, but we simply don't want to see it here. The Minions, despite all appearances to the contrary, are delicate creatures, and insipidly clean and sweet creations turn our perverted little stomachs. So, with that said, our challenge for May is  May we have a quick word?   This month we'd like you to either use some text somewhere on your creation OR make it a quick make - less than a day from start to finish. The Minions' two favourite creations will get to display the May Macabre Masterpiece badge, and at the end of the year the person with the most badges will receive a glorious prize from the Minions. And, each month, the ba...
