"The Lonely Freak"

Good Morning Everyone! I must warn you I had to get "My Freak On"! LOL! I created this card for two challenges over at Smeared & Smudged Ning Group... The Junk Funk January Challenge & The Rock -N- Rolla Challenge! Let's see where to start explaining... For the Junk Funk Challenge... We were to create a project using Paper Bags... Brown Grocery Bags or Decorative Bags... I chose Brown Grocery Bags as you will tell! Then for the Rock -N- Rolla Challenge our inspiration song/video is the song... "The Lonely" by Christina Perry. After much thought, this is what I came up with to bring both of them together in one project! What do ya think? The deadline for both of these challenges and a few others is Wednesday, February 1, 2012 at 2am CST! Come On Over And Join Us, we would LOVE to have you!

"I'll Get You!"

Welcome to Day 30 of 31 Days of Halloween Hop by Smeared & Smudged!! We only have 1 more day left! I have seen a huge heap of cool projects during this hop and I am a bit sad to see it coming to an end!! But we still have a few more projects to go and goodies to be given away!!! So be sure to hop, fly, creep, or crawl through all of the creations each day (you never know where a prize may be hidden)! If you happen to get lost along the way the whole blog roll is in the side bar to the right! If you arrived here from Tori's blog, then you are on track... if you didn't and would like to start from the beginning, head on over to Terra' s blog!!!

Today I have a cool hanging project for you!!! I created this for two awesome challenges, first Smeared & Smudged Junk Funk Challenge. We are to incorporate tin can lid(s) into our project and the second one is Macabre Monday Challenge over at the Haunted Design House is to create and pay tribute to the movie "Pumpkin Head". (I have NOT actually seen the movie; but thought this would be close! What do you think? Okay... let me get you on your way..

You will see two different pictures, the first one above is with the flash and the second one below is without it! I guess they sorta look alike... oh well!!! The last picture is the lid that I used. I painted it black and you can see where it is in my project!
