1. Create a dark and macabre SOMETHING (card, scrap page, altered item, whatever) that follows the specific Macabre Monday challenge given. Cutesy is fine, but creepy is better :)
2. You have until the following Sunday night @ 5pm central time to post your creation and please leave a direct-link back here.
3. If you upload to any online galleries (TACPCC, S&S, PCP, SCS, etc.), please tag the title using HDH036.
4. Weekly giveaways! Some weeks will be loaded with loot, others not-so-much... but the thrill is in the win, right?! Some prizes shall be by random drawing, others hand picked... and I'm not telling you ahead of time :)
5. I'll be selecting a weekly Gruesome Twosome (my top two favorite creations) from all the players. At the end of every month these will be compiled and a Master of Macabre will be selected. He/she will be asked to be a guest blogger for the following month, if they so wish, and receive a little giftie from me... this could be stamp sets, handmade items, papers, halloweenie embellishments... you just never know.
Ok, my little pretties... your challenge this week:
Macabre Monday Music Mayhem
You are to create a dark, Gothic, or Halloween page, project or card using images/sentiments inspired by a particular song!! That's right. It doesn't have to be your favorite song, just a song that inspires something a little dark, a little twisted, a little "um, yeah... ok... who in the Hell are you going to send THAT card to?" kind of work :)
{trumpets sounding} Doot doo doo dooooooo... here's mine:
Stamps: Angel (Stampotique), Victorian Elements (TAC), Funny Farm Phrases (TAC)
Paper: white ultrasmooth, black, scarlet, & Penelope cardstocks (TAC)
Ink: Noir, Orangerie & Burnt Sienna Palettes, Memento Tuxedo, Moonlight Brilliance
Other: sheer ribbon (HL), goo punch (MS)
Copics: 0, YR04, YR18, R02, R24, R29, E00, E02, E11, V99

Ok, here's a hint: it's by The Cult.
Yep! From 1989: Fire Woman
Yeah, it's kinda old... I mean that was the year I graduated high school, dude. :)
So what tune has been playing in YOUR head lately?
