Mama Said Knock You Out...Bombshell Style

No seriously, that's what she said! Well I guess she didn't mean to get violent this time though, at least thats what the lovely Inky Button says! Nope just time to dust off your PUNCHES and use your NESTIES (QuicKutz, Sizzix, Big Shot etc.) so that we could create our next Bombshell Masterpieces!!!

So here I am thinking about all the movie theater party pictures I have and the home movie nights we have so I thought, Picture Frame time! I used a wooden picture frame I got from Michael's for 75 cents and Bombshell sets Sugar Skulls and Alter Skulls to create this Fright Night Movie Night frame! I added gesso to the frame then when dried dry brushed with black acrylic paint, fire brick red, marmalade, and pine needle green distress reinkers from Ranger products.



Make sure to visit each and every blog listed and leave comments to be entered into a drawing for this lovely prize package!
