Tamiko's Thursday Teasers - Altered Image Challenge with a PRIZE!

Hey Tamiko's fans!  Today we have a CHALLENGE for you!  You've been seeing the CT members create up a storm, but now it's your turn to join in on the challenge.  The challenge is:

~ to make an ALTERED 3-D project or a card using any TGF image(s).  You can alter 2 TGF images swaping the head and body or alter the eyes or hair on the image.  Anything goes as long as you change something! 

This is my ALTERED image . . .  I used WS Edward's head and the body of the boy in the Sweet & Toxic set.  

And this is my 3-D project . . . it's a simple box to hold some Bath & Body Works lotion.  It easily fits 2 of them inside the box.

And the side view . . .

I hope you'll join us for this challenge.  Here are the details:

~ the PRIZE is: Sweet Anya stamp

~ the deadline to submit and link your project on Tamiko's Blog is:  September 30, 2010.

Just a couple of things . . . Tamiko's is able to do special orders for you, but you'll need to contact & email Joy directly for price quotations and ETA.  She will still require payment to be made via Paypal.   And remember about the FREE shipping of purchases of $25 or more (only in the USA).

Here's what I created.  I did a Shadow Box Card measuring 5 x 7.  This was my first time inking up Dee Dee and I was thrilled at how she turned out!  The idea to suspend Dee Dee came from the Tent Card.  I just thought it would be kind of neat to use 2 different size Blossom nesties to help suspend Dee Dee.  The flowers were cut using the Dahlia nestability -- thanks Kim for the idea!  :)  And of course, I've distressed EVERYTHING with Tim Holtz Distress Ink!   

Here's the top view . . .

And there's Dee Dee up close . . . I hope you can see all her teeny  tiny curls in her hair!

So, there we go!  Aren't you pumped up?  Get started and let's see what you create!  Don't forget to check out all the other Creative Team members cards!  Have a great weekend!
