AAA card Challenge #302: Follow the leader (Karen)

 Hello, this fortnight we follow Karen's lead.

Her card features a cute little stamped image with inkblending behind it.

As it's October I wanted to use this image from Impronte D'Autore (Halloween night) , I've colored it with alcohol markers and cut it out. Put some Nuvo Shimmer pen on the Moon.

For my inkblending I wanted to use a Dutch Doo Ba Doo stencil of a galaxy, but it looks weird on white. as the night sky is black. I then picked up some black cardstock and splattered it with Metallic watercolor instead of inkblending a patch. I stamped the sentiment on the inside as I didn't want to take up more white space with it. It's from the same set and says Halloween night, there's a seperate "cute" and "sweet" and I almost went for Sweet Halloween night, but didn't want to mess up lining it up.

Mounted the image with foamtape and adhered it to the cardbase.

I look forward to your interpretations, you can enter them here.

AAA Colourful Challenge #21: Oct-Nov

 Hello this month I saw blue, red, white and black (and green) in the sketch and I thought those would be perfect  colours for my Spellbinder penguins,

So I diecut the Spellbinders (Dancing penguin) and stuck it together.

for the background scene I applied Distress ink (Tumbled Glass) through a Studio Light Stencil (Winter Hills)

The sentiment is from My Favorite Things  (Bitty Holiday Whishes) and I stamped it with Versafine ink.

I look forward to your cards, you can enter them here.

AAA Card Challenge #301: Anything CAS goes with the optional twist of all greys

 

Hello, this fortnight we have an Anything CAS goes challenge with an optional twist of all greys (as in monochrome)

For my card I've used the Whimsy Stamps Winter Wonderland Stencil and one if it's treelines, it's always the same one, just shifted a little.

I masked off the bottom of my cardbase and I've used Distress inks: Lost Shadow, Hickory Smoke and Black Soot, I know that's black, but with a light application it looks grey.

The sentiment is diecut from Versafine Clair (morning Mist) colored card. The die is from Crealies.

AAA Birthday Card Challenge #78: Ombre

 

Hello, it's October, so I thought I should mae a Halloween like Birthday Card, incorporating the Ombre into the night sky.

For my cardbase I masked off an area and also a circle for the Moon and applied a bunch of Distress inks.

For the Moon Squeezed Lemonade and Mustard Seed.

For the Sky: Villainous Poison, Dusty Concord, Wilted Violet and Shaded Lilac, then Shaded lilac all over the other colors to even it out.

Splattered with water and Silver watercolor paint for the stars.

The Eek! is from Whimsy ( Eek word and shadow dieset.

The sentiments, How Old? is from Gerda Steiner Moody Unicorns

The You belong in a museum is from Kindred Stamps.

the Mummy Gnome is a image from Dutch Doo Ba Doo  Diecuts  and I mounted it with foamtape and adhered it onto the card. 

I thought as he looks like a mummy it went well with the sentiments and turned what could have been a Halloween card into aBirthday card, but still fun for October.

I look forward to your Ombre makes.
