Bombshell Stamps "Boy Toy" Hump Day Hop!

Yahoo! It's finally time for the monthly Bombshell Stamps Hump Day Hop! This month Kas, our able and brilliant Hump Day Hop Captain, selected the "Boy Toy" theme. I bet you're wondering "What exactly IS that?" Well, it's dedicated to the men in our lives. It doesn't have to be a boyfriend or husband.....maybe a soldier, a father, or just a masculine themed card.

Here's my take on the challenge!


I used the Bombshell Angel stamp set together with the Biker Bombshell Digital set. I decided to try oil pencils to color the Biker Chick's leathers and boots. The pencils blend really nicely and you can buff them to bring out a sheen. I used Copic markers to color the Bombshell's head and neck. The leathery looking papers are specialty papers by FiberMark. I used a gazillion tiny brads. Sadly, they're not lined up perfectly, but "art" is not perfect. Right? Anyways, I also used a corner punch and some rhinestones because a project just can't sing if it don't have the bling. Yeah. Go ahead and quote me. :D

I'm the last stop on the list, but just in case you missed anyone, here are the links. Remember that for each comment you leave, you get one more chance to win a fabulous prize!
