HDH133 is "Hot As Hell In Here!!" - these Haunted Design House Challenges get my Mojo flowing! I patterned this card after a sign on I-65 North towards Birmingham, Alabama. I have passed by it on my way to Birmingham 1,000 times, and it always makes me smile. Watch this amazing YouTube video and you can experience it too. I totally love this video!!!!
I used some clipart pictures and typed in my sentiment. I distressed my bg panel and burned my main panel with a candle - that was an experience. I kept praying my DH did not walk in because I think he is close to damanding I get an OSHA certification before I attempt additional creativity (I also cut myself making breakfast this morning). I coated my devil with some Glossy Accents, and I used some of the Blood Red Stickles on the flames and the Devil's eyes. IRL this looks amazing.
Another 5:00 AM card! Hope you all have a special day - don't forget to watch that YouTube Video I linked here - it is sooooo great. Hugz to all.

Nancy, I can honestly say that I have never seen a sign like this in NJ...but we do have our share of church billboard faux pas. Glad that the blood red on the card wasn't yours. OSHA huh? I'm guessing that EP, Glossy Accents, inks, many of our adhesives and embellishments probably aren't good for us in large doses. Not that we use large doses of any of them...
Hugz, dear Sis! We need to let you sleep in one day

Okay, I am SPEECHLESS Nutzi! I saw the billboard/video and couldn't believe it. Only you could come up with something this brilliant - it scares me that this is an inspirational work of art, but then you scare me anyway! LOL! Hmmm....I think you mightz have created this on at 6:66 a.m. rather than 5:00 a.m. as you claim. Either that or you finished it at 6:66. Okay, I REPENT, I REPENT! I remember when I was about 8 or so, my sister came up beside my bed and she had really curly dark hair and I screamed b/c I thought she was the devil - that darn devil is always after zee fruitcake! What is that all about? I'm harmless and I've tried to go to church, but they keep telling me no fruitcakes allowed - what is a fruitcake to do? Nancy, sis, you iz da queen of everything and now it looks like even the queen of EVIL!!!

I sure DH would think you were into some kind of witchcraft doing this. I think an exorcism is in order - I'll send out the paranormal team PRONTO! They will be there by 6:66 a.m. or p.m., depending on their schedule.

Nancy you have a "dark" side that is enlightening....lol I loved that video. I thought the sceney around the sign was just exquisite and so pretty. A perfect spot to catch the passerbys attention. Now this is the type of card I would send to someone who has been mean to me.....lol Your fire looks amazing - but the devil scares me....lol Super cute!
