Hi! It's been forever since I have had time to play but I finally got some free time. I have been dying to color up this image from Kraftin Kimmie Stamps since I got it last year and this was my first attempt at copic coloring after more than a few months off. Wow am I ever out of practice. Anyway I also wanted to play along with a Kraftin Kimmie Stamps Challenge. And this weeks challenge is anything goes. So here is my Wicked Witch!
It's a pretty basic card with some fun BG papers. I "borrowed" Cheryls Purple dotty BG around the image, sooo much fun to do. Anyway thanks for looking!

Back with a SPLASH!
Hello Blogland! I am finally back after months of not crafting at all. This card has been a work in progress. I colored up Cordelia by Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps about a month or so ago and chose the papers as well but she sat on my desk till this morning. When I say the challenge at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps NO PEOPLE ALLOWED! I knew I had to finish this card.
I was going for a Madison from SPLASH theme. One of my Favorite Movies! I think she turned out pretty good. And the Mermaid Sentiment was perfect! Thanks for looking!

Pandora's Box
It's time for a new challenge with the Beyond the Burtonesque Dolls! Since it is the 3rd Thursday of the month, this is our altered challenge. So what do you have to do this time around? Well, our challenge is Pandora's Box. So please make a project with a box. You can make the box yourself, or use a store bought one that you can alter. But be sure to keep it creepy!
I know we all somethings feel like someone has opened Pandora's box,
like all the craziness in the world is taking over.
So I decided to make my box creepy but fun.
Creepy
Fun
I painted an old cigar box and decorated the outside with
a single skull and purple roses. The inside is filled with
hand dyed felt and various Stampotique heads.
I added wiggly eyes to the three in a round.
Can't wait to see what you create!

Wickidz!
I have something very special for you today! It's a preview for the new Simply B Collection, the Wickidz. By Artist Alexander Landish! Alexander always seems to be able to get Bettys concepts just right! She's a big fan of his work and so asked him to do a few things for her in his style! A bit darker than her own normal stuff, but still cute and quirky! It was only fitting that the Beyond the Burtonesque Dolls work with the darker side of SBS. So the creepier images, the darker stuff, will be released through us. Our releases will be the last 2 days of the month, though this time around, we are starting it a day early. SO let's get on with the show...
Here are the first 3 Wickidz.
Damien
Malice
Petunia
Be sure to check out all The Dolls creepy projects at
And be sure to come back tomorrow for
the final three reveals!

Goth it up!
Hi and welcome to another Beyond The Burtonesque Dolls Challenge.
This time it's a Double whammy,
Alter an item by Gothing up a cute image.
I altered this little picture frame with a Gothed up image
of Alice. It's an image by Danita available from Crescendoh
So now it's your turn! What are you going to alter?
What cute thing are you going to blacken and creep out??? We can't wait to see!
We have decided to change things up a bit. The first Tuesday of the month
we are going to have you make any kind of project you want,
as long as it follows the parameters of the challenge.
The third Tuesday of the month, will be an altered item challenge...
so that means no cards, scrapbook pages, etc.
You've gotta alter something, that falls in line with that challenge.
Also, every once and a while, Ms. Betty Boo is going to have we Dolls
do some very special releases for her. These will happen on the
last 2 days of the month. We won't have releases here every month,
but I will tell you that March will have a release!
So be on the lookout and spread the word!
