Long time no blog. March Bombshell sketch challenge

I can't believe I've not blogged for so long.  I have been oh so busy since starting my new job.  I have barely had any time to create.  So I have made myself a promise to "make time".  

To kick start things I have turned to my favourite stamp company, and stamp and am entering the Bombshell stamps March Sketch challenge.

This is the sketch

and this is my interpretation.  

Ingredients list is below.  Hope you like her :)

Apologies I just noticed there is a speck above her eye in the first couple of pics.

I used

Paper (inc Basque): Basic Grey Little Black Dress 6 x 6
Core-dinations (dark grey from nostalgia collection)

Colouring: Copics

Sentiment made using Tim Holtz Chitchat stickers

Flowers: Magnolia Doohickey Hellebores

Card size is 6x6

Bombshell Blog Hop : Holiday Hoopla

This month the theme for the Bombshell blog hop is

Many of our major holidays are just around the corner. I think we all know what my favorite holiday is (Halloweenie!  )...but what's yours? My challenge to you is to make a Bombshell project for your favorite holiday. Bonus points if you make a decoration!!! Use any holiday you want and create something that's going to make us want to celebrate!!!

My favourite holiday is probably Christmas, so I decided to create my first ever Bombshell Christmas card :)

I used Man's ruin who is fast becoming my favourite.
I coloured her with copics.
The snowflakes are the one the edge Tim Holtz die, tarted up with stickles, and holo glitter
The paper was from my stash, not sure of the brand sorry.

The sentiment was a freebie of unknown origin.

Hope you like her.

Bombshell June Blog Hop: Shiver me Timbers

Hi,
You should be arriving here from EtsyKetsy's blog.
If you are lost there is a list a bit further down ;)


This months Bombshell blog hop brief is

Aaaarrrggg!!!! In honor of the latest Pirates of the Carribean flick, and the start of Summer (cruises and such...work with me here, folks) I decided what better theme than pirates! More like the phrase "Shiver me timbers!" Now, I am thinking pirates...but what do YOU think of when you hear that phrase?

Well I have been nuts about Pirates since I was knee high to Long John Silvers leg.  I loved doing this challenge.
I made one card specially, and am showing another of my Pirate cards too.

Other than using Bombshell stamps I have no clue where I got the papers from.  I am a Magpie for Piratey wonders and pick them up all aver the place.
