You know you're addicted to Twilight if you look at your husband and think,
"Dammit, why don't you sparkle?"
WONDERFUL prize will be awarded to ONE lucky winner!!!
I will be awarding the BEST card with a little something Twilight related! LV (my 12 year old DD who's also on Team Edward) and I will pick thee best Twilight represented card! Let's just say the prize is something you will be able to wear and maybe wont want to take off!
Ok...the obsession has taken over! I have had this brewing in my wittle head since I started reading the first book. Are you addicted as well...do you fantasize being in Forks? Do you dream about being "bitten"? Do you prefer men who are dead, cold, and sparkly? Or do you prefer furry creatures? If you answered yeah to ANY of the above...then yeah...you suffer from Twilight Mania!!!
Anything goes for this swap! Make a card depicting Edward, Jacob, Bella, The Cullens...ANYTHING goes! Even if you're a Swiss Neutral...join me!!!

How 'bout some Pink Poison? LOL! Yeah...I just found these oh so adorable stamps thanks to SCS! This pwetty pwincess was so much fun to color...but I had to do 6 for a swap and I've been trying to color how LV taught me using darks and lights to create "depth" to an image. Yeah...my 12 year old DD taught ME! LOL! I love sketches when I'm in a funk. This is an old challenge sketch from SCS and for the swap...we were to pick ANY sketch to use for the swap and I chose this one. Friday I will feature the next sketch I used...oldie but goodie! This card made me break out some non-used CS and DP and ribbon...lol. Notice the twinkle on her dress, wand, & crown? I added some Stickles to make it look like a Halloween costume my Lizzie wore on her first Halloween...lol. Gotta love the "sparkly". I've been hogging so much stuff it's sick...and now with a minimun spending freeze due to Christmas shopping around the corner...I really have to use what I already got! Of course I had to break my little rule for these little gals...too cute to resist! Don't ya think?
This Forks, WA tee I made here used said stamp. It says "Somebody in _____ loves you". How cool is that??? You can customize it you ANY city or ANY place your heart desires!!! My desire was Forks or course...lol. I used Studio G's Alphabet set series 3 to add the city and state. I can't say I'm SUPER happy with this card because I've been in a creative slump lately with not getting enough sleep and what not prepping for LV's JB concert Saturday. Not my ususal style...but still worth showing to promote Mel's new set which by the way is called "Tee Talk". I just did a basic print out of a map showing forks and the zip code seal and just went with it. Like the apple brad? LOL! I think it's cute...what do you think?
Now here is a hoodie card she made. Since she ran out of her shrinky dinks...she resorted to stamping a small guitar I picked up for her at ATS. Boy did she give me work on this one. I had to snip it for her! AAAAAAAAHHHHH!!! It was horror as I had to do 6 of them...lol. Either way I love how this card of hers came out! Could you believe she giving ME coloring tips to "inner shade" as she calls it using Prismas??? Yeah...I can now hang my head in shame! LOL!
