Simply Betty Stamps Secret Release # 3: Sneak Peeks Day 2

Hello again my crafty peeps!

I'm back again with another secret sneak peak from Simply Betty Stamps. 


Make sure you start from the beginning so you won't miss any of the amazing project. If you're coming from Rachel's page  http://rachelspaperwishes.blogspot.com/ then you're in the right place; if not then your starting point should be at: http://simplybettystamps.blogspot.com/ 

Today I'm introducing: Betty Little Dark Homemaker

I'm not sure who the image was inspired by but after giving it quite

some thought I felt she looked a lot like Morticia Addams about to deadhead a rose...

I found a quote and hand wrote it on the card that reads:

"Oh the thorns are lovely this year." - Morticia Addams

This is the finished card.

(yep those are real thorns got them from my green bin and poked my fingers a few times too LOL)

I decided not to use scrapbook papers this time and go with a garden scene 

from Make It Crafty digi stamps it's called Rose Garden. I decided to make the bird into a crow...

Just when I was done writing on the card I seemed to smudge my image on the face

with some black ink argggg.... but I was able to scratch most of it off {sighs}

then go over it with the color I chose for the skin I almost cried LOL nah jk

Here you can see that I tried to apply "eye shadow" with Star Dust gelly rolls and Atyou Spica.

Also the crow I've seen them in the neighborhood and they seem to have black with shiny 

sort of bluish shine to them. Hope you love these images as much as I do. They were in

digi form for a few days and then were retired to only rubber stamps.
