HDH116-Chic Freak

I admit, I am a little stumped on this week's Haunted Design House challenge.  I don't even know if I could define chic freak.  I then realized, I think I AM a chic freak. Well, I'm the freakiest that I know, so I thought I would play with that.  I present to you Katt Korpsgryndr, in all her freaky faboo.

 26th birthday.

 I eat humans.

I got GWARED!

A normal Saturday night...

 33rd birthday demon.

 Partyin like a Pirate.

 Back in my REALLY freaky days.

Well there I am.  I might not have made a project, but I made my style, and never let anyone tell me different. I love me, and I love my band of freaks. 

HDH115-METAL MANIA!!

Hello everyone!  I have been gone for quite some time, yes.  I missed the last challenges of 2011 because...oh hell I won't bore you with all of that.  Lets get going on this years challenges!

Haunted Design House's Macabre Monday challenge this week is Metal Mania.  Use metal, a representation of metal, or a metal band, SOMETHING metal. My husband is probably one of the most "metal" men I know.  Really. The heavier, the louder, the better.  Cookie monster vocals and the like.  When I popped onto my dashboard to check the challenge, I was in the middle of making his card. (Today is his birthday)  It happens to be perfect...check it out....

First off, the image for this card is the cover to one of my Hubs fave bands albums.  Behemoth, a polish black/death metal band, is HUGE in his book. (You wanna see some scary shit? Go youtube a Behemoth video)  He loves them, so I used the cover art for their album Evangelion.  I have always dug it myself. 

She is mounted on a metallic type paper.  Also, I used some metal tiles behind that clear card stock with the neat filigree on it.  I really dig this card, and I am sure he will too.  We have seen Behemoth a couple times in concert, and they were really good.  This will take him back there...

Mayhemfest 2009.  Conquer All.

They keep me locked up lately...

I would have to write a novel on this post to explain my vast absence.  I have missed so many wonderful challenges....sigh.  Alas, life has thrown us quite the curve ball, as it does some times.  In the middle of it all came my favorite holiday, Hallowe'en.  We did manage(as we always do) to celebrate the joyous occasion, and I wanted to post a picture of our wonderful costumes this year.  So, I give you to Mr. and Mrs. Korpsgryndr, also known as....

Malificent and the Mad Bomber.  Hope your holiday was well.

BLOG CANDY ALERT!!!!

I know, I've been away for quite some time.  I apologize.  My season is here, and I have been a busy Korpsgryndr.  Very.  I'm currently working on this weeks HDH challenge, but I just found this and had to share.

Creepy Glowbugg is giving away blog candy!!!

And lots of it!!  Head over and check out her blog.  Not only will you get a chance to win these exceptional goodies, you'll see some really killer art.  Get over there!

Ode to a Bugg

Happy Birthday, Creepy Glowbugg!! 

What some of you might not know is that our beloved Creepy G is one of my very very nearest and dearest.  After seeing how much we had in common, her uber-cool husband decided he'd let me have her.  Sometimes. (Man, that was a good year, eh Glo?)  We met on a New Years Eve, and after eyeing me real good, and inspecting my Lenore tattoo, I was accepted.

Creepy G is the lady who introduced me to the wonderful world of crafting. She is my "craft mentor" as I call her.  I can't thank her enough for giving me this addiction.  Aside from crafts, her and I have spent many a day together being, well, US.

Now, although her cave is only 3 minutes from my cave, I hardly see her anymore.  Life, children, and that ever demanding craft room have kept us very busy, and it's hard to get together as much as we used too. That doesn't mean that she's not as special to me as ever.  Glo is an amazing person with a heart as big as her creepy collection(which is HUGE).  My life would never be the same without her, nor would my pocketbook.  My skin is permanently inked with her art, and my home is covered in even more of her wonderful wares. 

Glo, you have rocked my world since the very beginning, and still do.  Thanks for always being my boyfriend, mentor, shoulder, laughing buddy, and partner in crime.  I wish you the happiest of birthdays, even if you are coming close to the Crypt Keepers age.

She walks softly, but carries a big gun.

Here's what I got for this week.

Haunted Design House says to use one of the 7 deadly sins as your inspiration this week. Being that this little philly(Scarlett West) from Kenny K's Steampunk line threatened to shoot me with that big ole smoke wagon if I didn't use her I decided to use Wrath as my sin. It's my favorite one, anyway.

I would also like to enter this card into the Simon Says Stamp and Show Steampunk challenge.  This is my first real delve into the world of Steampunk, and I kinda dig it.

HDH105-P.M.S.

Is it ironic that this card is coming in late because of my own PMS?  Hmmmm.  It is to ponder. PMS-Psychotic Miss Silver.  Haunted Design House's challenge this week.  Use a crazy bitch and some type of silver.  I almost put myself on the front of this card, to be honest.  Wink.  Alas, I chose one of our original psychotic ladies-

Lizzie Borden, who so famously whacked the hell out of her parents, or so the limerick goes.  I mounted her on some super reflective silver paper(a reflection of myself is what shadowed the top right corner).  I took a Sakura silver glitter pen to her eyes, and sparkled her broach with a sparkly silver brad.  Yeah, this card gave me fits. But I think I like it.
