Multi-Challenging Again! …TT60 & MTSC57 for those of you keeping score!

I hit up TwiTuesday and Mercy Kerin for challenges this week. There are so many to choose from! Without much blather… here is another card that I really love! And, yes, she would make a lovely little vamp girl, but… well, not sure the Hub would get it! And since it’s a valentine card he may likely get… LOL Quick Hits: The Twilight Tuesday challenge was from super sweet Erica Johnson-Wanzer, who challenged us to tap the emotional quality to the color red ~ appropriate for the upcoming ‘holiday’, and of course, vampires. (Side note: How ironic that I am listening to Vampire Weekend as I type this!) And, the lovely and talented Mercy Kerin provides great sketch layouts every week.

I bought this fabric-ish paper, with flocked brocade type patterns laid into it… so in order to not hide the fabulosity of it, I cut Maddie out… yes, every freaking strand of hair! And then I elevated her so that she remained the focal point, since I did use very deep and similar shades in my papers. I took this picture over here –> to show you that I am indeed a dweeb, and actually curled up the individual locks of hair. So there! All of you who insist there is no girly-girl within me! That’s a big nanner-nanner from classy me! Anywhoo… juvenile moment expired… You will notice that I finally decided to get this Martha border punch. My friend, Jen, has been doing rad things with it for months, and for some reason, every time I would pick it up in the store, it just never felt right. (We already established that I am, in fact, a dweeb.) I finally went and did it. And now, I completely see this as a Gothic, wrought iron type element… Ooh la la! Maddie will sprout her fangs again soon, methinks! I suppose I should allow Zeke to flex his choppers, too. Anyhow… Got your Zeke and Maddie yet???

Lovely! She is so cute. After seeing how Jen used the punch, I bought it too! It is so much fun! I now have a slight addiction to Martha boarder punches! Great work!
