The Burtonesque Dolls

This week at The Burtonesque Dolls

it's time to recreate a scene from

 The Nightmare Before Christmas, The Corpse Bride

or Beetlejuice. Use any images, from any company.

My immediate impulse was to make a NBC creation,

but I felt that I really should try another movie for a

change so I went with The Corpse Bride.

Damien from Simply Betty Stamps is my Victor and

Ghoulfriend from Tiddly Inks is the Bride.

The moon was made by using a Spellbinder's Nestie Circle.

I made a mask of Damien and the Moon and used Distress

Inks in Stormy Sky, Weathered Wood and Dusty Concord

for the night sky. The Forever stamp is a $1 Michaels stamp.

It's one of my favorite sentiment stamps.

Looking forward to seeing your creation!

Freaky Friday!

It's Freaky Friday at Forever Night Challenges

and this week we have a real easy one for you 

ANYTHING GOES challenge!

This week we are sponsored by

Delicious Doodles.

They have some really fun images and I got

 to use Sexy Goth and made her into the Black Widow.

She is colored with Copics of Course! The BG paper

was from my scrap box and Reflection flowers and a plastic

spider finish off the card.

Looking forward to seeing what you create.

Blue Crush

It's time for another
Sweet Pea Stampers Challenge

and this week it's

Blue Crush.

When I think of Blue, I think of the Sea, which then leads

to mermaids. I have a TON of Sweet Pea Stamps mermaid images
so it was really hard to choose but today I decided to use the 

Beautiful Barbie by Joanne Schempp.

I colored her with Copics and kept the rest of the card
pretty simple. Some K & Co. Abrianna background
paper. Reflections flowers and a piece of Ribbon.
Can't wait to see your Creations!

Creepy and Crawly

~ Create a mini art project with something creepy or something crawly or both~

The creepiest crawliest thing I can think of

is Gollum from LOTR. He just creeps me out!

The Burtonesque Dolls also have a fun challenge for 

you, find a scene, poster, anything Burton that shows

a more lighter, softer side of his crazy norm.

 I recreated the garden scene, with talking flowers,

funky mushrooms and a twisty tree.

(Tree and Mushrooms are from Tiddly Inks, 

Flower face is from The Octopode Factory)

Here is my inspiration.

The quote reads "Why, sometimes I've believed

as many as six impossible things before breakfast".

Can't wait to see what you come up with!

Merkids

Today I am previewing Cornelius and Broom Hilda

for Simply Betty Stamps Merkids Preview.

Meet Broom Hilda!

 She is just sooo cute! I just love all the Merkids, they

have such adorable little faces. That AWESOME sentiment is from

Graphicat Designs as a FREEBIE! Thanks Cheri!

Here's Cornelius!

I wanted to give him a Prince Eric look, you know the Prince from 

The Little Mermaid. It would be a different story if the Prince

had decided to join the Merfolk. LOL

Anyway join us at

The Burtonesque Dolls
