Take a Bite

The Walking Dead might be done for the season but our favorite characters are just a cut file away with this wonderful Walking Cute file over at Marjorie Ann Designs.  These guys are great and easy to piece together.   You have to admit, once you see this file every one does look pretty cute...well except for that zombie character.  I guess compared to what those zombies really do look like this guy's pretty cute too though.

 

Today I want to share a card I made using Carol and her infamous cookies.   That episode with the little boy and the cookies was one of the best ones all season.   But now here's a question for you.....Do you think that this "new" side of Carol makes her a new breed of villain - if you will?  I'm kind of on the fence, but I'd say she's definitely getting close.

 

My stamped sentiment for this card is from the V is for Villain stamp set from Jaded Blossom.  This particular set comes in a bundle along with one of the candy stamp sets with the same theme and it's perfect for using on Hershey kisses.

 

Oh and here are some pieces I put together using this file.  I made these for my friend Marge so that she could create a shadowbox to send to none other than her favorite, Darryl Dixon.

 

 

It's Good to be Bad

 

I have a quick little card to share with you this morning.  It's another in my villain series and this one features that delightfully evil character from the Little Mermaid, Ursula.  The file is from Too Cute by Jessica and is from her cut file titled Villains.

 

My sentiment is from the Jaded Blossom stamp set titled V is for Villain.

Hello Gorgeous

Hello everyone and thanks for stopping by today.  I have another card in my Villains series to share with you.  This one is also from the Villains file that you can find at Too Cute by Jessica.  Just like the name says these villains are too cute.

 

For my card today I chose to use Malificent as my focus.  She was the perfect choice to go with this card blank from DCWV.  It's part of the Solstice cards and envelopes box set and I love that all the background work is done for me.

 

The stamped sentiment on this card is from the stamp set Hello Hello by Jaded Blossom and it's part of the Hello Hello bundle that also comes with a candy stamp set perfect for using with those Hershey kisses.

 

 

 

Poisonous Fruit

 

Happy Monday everyone!  I am excited to tell you that today I am a guest designer over at Red Carpet Studio.  And boy have they got a fun challenge lined up for you.  In honor of the 87th Academy Awards the challenge is to Use circles for champagne bubbles and gold for the Oscar. You get to choose your accessory... a bow for a bow tie or bling for jewels or both.

 

For my take on this challenge I chose to make a card featuring a very well know villain  - the Evil Queen from Snow White.  Did you know that at the 11th Academy Awards, Disney was awarded an honorary Oscar, and that Snow White was nominated for Best Musical Score?  So what could be more fitting for this challenge?

 

The Evil Queen is one of several villains you'll find in the Villains file from Too Cute by Jessica.  As you can see I used gold on my background, circles for my sentiments and a small jewel on the evil queen's necklace.

 

My sentiments are from the Jaded Blossom stamp set Villain Candies.  I also used a sentiment from the V is for Villains stamp set on the inside of the card.

 

 

 

And now that you've seen my take on the be sure to  pop on over to Red Carpet Studio and check all the exciting projects the design team created.  The challenge ends March 12th so you have plenty of time to put your thinking cap on for this one. 

Wicked Birthday

Happy Sunday everyone.  Today I have another installment in my villain series to share with you.  This time I decided to create a birthday card.  Now I'm not sure which villain this is *gasp* and if one of you recognizes the character I'd love for you to share.  I'm guessing though that she's from the Disney cartoon Hercules??  Am I at least in the ballpark?

 

Anyway I created this card using the Villains file from Too Cute by Jessica.  And right now she's running a 90% off sale - but I'm not sure for how long.  Either way it's worth checking out.

 

My stamped sentiment is from the V is for Villain stamp set from Jaded Blossom.

And now I'm off to enter this card into the following challenge:

DL Art - Thankful Thursday, Use Blue - Ends February 24th

A Good Villain

This evening I have a card to share with you that is a part of my villains series I'm working on.  This entire series is being created using the Villains file from Too Cute by Jessica.  Every one of these characters I found to be easy to piece together and a lot of fun to work with.  The only downside is that there aren't more of them.

 

Of course everyone knows the Evil Cruella Deville from 101 Dalmatians.  I just love that I was able to find this piece of paper in my stash that looks just like a Dalmatian.  It made the perfect background for my card.  I used one of the sketches from the Mojo Monday blog as the inspiration for the layout of my card.  It's sketch number 365 and was actually intended to be used for a tall and skinny card, but I chose to use it for my more traditional sized one.  And I love how the 'flags' add just the right amount of pizzazz as the colors pop off the page.

 

I then decided to "decorate" the inside of my card using the same background paper and adding some more flags.  However, opted to not include a sentiment on the inside.  This way the card can be used for a variety of occasions and then I'm not stuck to only one.

 

The sentiment one on the front of the card though is from the V is for Villain stamp set from Jaded Blossom.
