I've used the plywood frame rectanlge for my shadow box. I started by painting it all black, let it dry, touched up bits I missed and then added blues and purples to the sky over the black, probably not as effective but you can kind of see it in real life. Then I diecut all the shapes from black cardstock. And for th emoon, stars and cat's eyes I've used the Studio Light Glow in the dark foil.

The moon is is from the Whimsy Stamps Howling Night dieset and it's a textured die, much like the rock, but on the glow in the dark foil it doesn't show as much, a normal circle dieset would work fine too. There's also a very similar stampset if you prefer. I've also used the howling wolf, the rock and graveyard border.

The Whimsy Build a graveyard set gave me the tombstones, cat, skulls, bats and I did diecut the fenc, but didn't use it in the end.

The Reaper is from Roaming monsters.

I diecut the skulls from white card and with my inkblending brush and Distress inks I made them "dirty" and worn looking (I hope).

Put my frame together and adorned all the pieces. Placed the Whimsy Digi of Frank 2 on top, like he's stealing a brain from the graveyard and scared the cat.

I've strung some fairylights through the frame, just so the different layers are lit up, I mean I love black, but I also need to see all my components ;-)

AAA cards Challenge #277: Anything CAS goes with the option of Halloween

 


Hello, this fortnight we have an Anything CAS goes challenge again. The optional twist is Halloween.

Although I took inspiration from the game badge , I made it into a Happy Birthday.

I've used Orange as it's my friend's favorite color and a stamp she gifted me.

The cat is from Craft EmothionsL5010 Kitty & Fish.


For the background I've inkblended Distress inks Carved Pumpkin and RIpe Persimmon through a stencil I made and then splattered with Lawn Fawn Liquid Stardust.

Stamped the kitty and sentiment on top with Versafine black ink. Let is dry, filled in the nose and eyes with a white gel pen as the orange background  came through.

AAA Colourful Challenge #9

 

Hello it's the month of Halloween, I'm sure, you  could see something Halloween like in our colours this  month, but I've flipped the game badge upside sown as, to me, it could be a night sky, maybe some sand dunes and my card is inspired by  Joseph and Maria making their way to Bethlehem, guided by the star.

For the card I've used Distress inks: Chipped Sapphire, Prize Ribbon, Seedless Preserves,  Spiced Marmalade, Mustard Seed and Squeezed Lemonade.

Instead of curved lines, I went with ripped strips of masking paper, so I would still get the layered look, a bit of the white in between it  could be a night sky or landscape. but as I splattered with water, white and gold paint, it might be more like a sky.

The sentiment is from  My Favorite Things (Bitty Holiday Wishes and the image is from Nellie's Choice (CSIL002) and I stamped both with Versafine black ink.

I then took a gold marker to make the Star.

I am curious to see what you come up with, so play along and enter your card here.

AAA Card Challenge #276: sketch


 
Hello for my Dt card and sketch Challenge I made a Halloween card, it's almost that time of year.

I started by inkblending trough a circle stencil ( Negative) as those aren't included with the Stampers Anonymous Moon Masks set from Tim Holtz. I've used what ever yellow was left on my inkblending tool, I think Mustard Seed and then Lost Shadow on top with the Crater masks

DIecut the three bats in the set from  Dutch Crafts and stuck them on top. I think three is a bit much, but there's 3 blobs on the sketch, so I went with that, one would have been nicer in my CAS opinion.

The sentiment is from Clearly Besotted Tiny Type and I stamped it with Versafine Back ink.

AAA Birthday Cards Challenge October: Circle shaped card #66

 

Hello, this month we would like to see round or circle shaped cards.

For mine I diecut the flower die from Creative Expressions (CED24008) from White card.

Then found my plain round circles and diecut the backer , also white cardstock and inkblended some random Distress ink colors on it; attached the flower diecut and then splattered with Lawn Fawn Liquid Stardust.

Aso diecut the bardbase by sticking the die up a little, so the top stays connected.

Obviously no room for a sentiment, so you'll have to trust me it's for a birthday card ;-)
