HDH120-Love Lies Bleeding

This was another one of those challenges that came down to the wire for me. I had it all planned out, then trashed it all and started again.  Use examples of love in it's deadliest form.  The Minions at Haunted Design House are working us!  It's okay.  I think I FINALLY got it.  I decided to use one of my FAVORITE couples from one of my FAVORITE love stories.

Mickey and Mallory Knox.

This is the wedding picture of the wonderfully fucked up pair from Natural Born Killers.  I heart that movie so much.  Their love was pure, fueled by blood & fire, and bound for hell.  But they LOVED each other.  Sure, they were mass murderers who killed for fun, but in a perfect world, wouldn't we all wanna go on a good old fashioned killing spree?

Anyone?  No?  Hmmm.  Guess I'm the only one.  (Yes, I'm a sicko.  No, you may not see.)

Mickey and Mallory's love is one to be desired, even if it is deadly.  I used Mallory's words at their "wedding" as the sentiment.  I only wish I would have thought of it at my wedding.

Til you and I die and die, and die again.
Til death to us part.

HDH119-Kenny K Show us some love

Freaker's Free for All this week at Haunted Design House!  Gotta love that.  However, it opens things up so much more, it's like being stuck in a craft vortex, spinning round and round, watching all the colors, supplies, images..oh look there's the Cheshire Cat...oh and Martha Stewart!  God I wanna pick her brain on how she made creme brulee in a microwave in prison...


Ahem.  Excuse me.  I think I went a bit heavy on the glue. Made me all woooooozy.  I'm back now.  What was I saying?  Oh yeah, weekly challenges.  I chose to use a card I made for my little brother's 21st birthday not too long ago.  Being that I love him, I'm gonna enter this at Kenny K's Krafty Girlz LOVE challenge.  Here's what we got!

Dummy me forgot to take a photo until right before I gave it to him.  Sorry if the picture quality is bad..but isn't she badass?

I used the lovely Pitstop Penny from Kenny K's Krash Kittenz line.  I named one of those characters, just not this one.  Honey Sparks is my bitch.  Yes, you may use her.  But you gotta pay Kenny first.

This was my first attempt at coloring an image black & white.  I think I did ok.  I used Copics, in shades of gray, and some blue violets.  I think I did purty dang good.  I can't wait to try another image out.

Now, back to that glue thang.  I really want that creme brulee recipe.

Playin with the Queen of Hearts--a few challenges.

I must tell you first off that this isn't my first project I made.  The first one is in shreds on the floor.  Yeah, like that.

Haunted Design House asks for us to use a heart, and a hole in our projects.  I immediately knew what I was gonna do-so I thought.  Got my images colored, then the battle started.  After much, much deliberation I threw together a turd.  Thank the Gods my camera battery was dead, or else I wouldn't have had time to tear apart the turd, regroup, get my mind right, and create this masterpiece--



I found this Queen of Hearts image cruising Creepy G's blog a while back.  It's from Spesch Stamps, and they have this amazing line of dead Wonderland characters.  I had to use her!  I am very proud of how I colored her.  Aside from using the hearts adorning Her Deadness as my heart, I decided to go literal, and use a sketch of an actual human heart.  How's THAT for meeting a challenge? 

But wait!  Where is the hole, you ask?  Look very closely...it's right there in the heart!  I suppose I could use the holes punched on the edge of the bg paper, but I decided to cut hole in my paper heart anyway.  I find it utterly cool.

Since this card fits many challenges, I'm gonna throw her into a couple more. I'd like to enter her in Simon Says Stamp and Show(Kings and Queens), and The Altered Alice hearts challenge.  How could I resist?

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.


Mr & Mrs Korpsgryndr

Enjoying the shores of South Lake Tahoe.


 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.
