Smudger Challenge #5

SMUDGER CHALLENGE #5 - vintage and green

I am so pleased to be a part of the new Design Team on the Smudger Challenge Blog.

The Smudger Challenge for the month of August is to create something VINTAGE with a little or lot of GREEN! The prizes for the winners will be a choice of two digital stamps or this cute handmade mini fairy door. YAY!


After much thought, I decided to use the quirky Dr. Death image from Smudgetastic Digis. Please check out the great selection of digis that are available in their store.




I colored the Dr Death image with MS Paint and added some chalks for contrasts. To give my card a vintage feel, I used the cover of an antique book I found on the Graphics Fairy. I colored the book green with MS Paint and chalks. The card is embellished with an amber colored feather, green glitter, black rhinestone and a stick I picked up outside on my daily walk. I added the word "oddity" using my computer. I covered the completed image with light green tulle.

I hope I have inspired you to create something "vintage and green" for the SMUDGER CHALLENGE! Also, please check out the other Design Team samples that are listed on the site.

I am entering this card in the following challenges:

Crafty Catz - #143 all that glitters
Haunted Design House - #144 freakers free for all
Tammy's Scrapin' Corner - #21 anything goes
Jackson's Digital Expressions - #16 anything goes
Party Time Tuesday - #79 anything goes

Please stop in and look at all the beautiful creations on display on the above listed sites.

Brilliant use of the Plague Doctor image from Smudgetatsic! He's one of my favorites. I like all the details like the 'oddity' sign and the feather. Nice textures. Thanks so much for playing along with us this week at HDH!
