Happy Halloween

 Hello, I'm here with a Halloween card for the Celebrate it challenge over at Lost Coast blog

Stamps Used:

Frank

License Plate alphabet

I stared out with stamping Frank on white cardstock and coloring him with Copic markers. I then cut him out. 
Next, I stamped the 31 from the apha set on green cardstock and cut them out. Set both cutouts aside and pick out some Halloween paper for the card background. 

I took some molding paste and added some black paint to it and put it through a stencil and added some black embossing powder of top. Set aside to dry. (You really didn't have to tint the paste if you add black embossing powder to it). When dry I heat embossed it and it made it all shinny. 

Lastly, I added my 31 to the bottom and had Frank stand on top of it. I then added a saying.

I hope you join the Challenge here.

Bookmarks

  Goodmorning, Today I have 2 bookmarks for you.

I started out by cutting a strip of paper 6in X 2in. 

Then I used a Tim Holtz stencil and green distress ink and make a background.

On a scrap of paper I stamped the creepy creature and colored with Copic markers and cut out and added to the bottom of the bookmark.

For this one I started with 2 different purple distress inks to make the background. 

I then stamped the cross stich on the bottom of the bookmark for the creepy striped creature to stand on.

On a scrap of paper, I stamped the creepy standing creature and colored it with Copic markers and cut out. Next, I placed the cut out on top of the stamped cross stich. Around the background I stamped the grunge writing in purple ink. 

I then stamped the sawtooth stitching off the top of the bookmark.

Lastly, I added some white spots to it.

Celebrate it

 Hello today we have a new challenge for Lost Coast blog. Celebrate it. I made a Halloween card for the start. 

Rock or pop- up challenge

 Hello, all I'm here with a round pop-up card for you using Lost Coast Stamps.

Stamps Used:

Butterfly set

I used a die to make the card. I came with all the layers. I picked a pink rose paper so I stamped the butterflies in a pink distress ink color. 

I did the same thing on the back, but I didn't add the big butterfly to the center.

Come join the challenge here.

Stencil or Die challenge

 Hello all, today we have a new challenge of at The Male Room blog. You have to use a stencil or a die. For me I used both.

I started out with some black cardstock and a stencil from Tim Holtz. Also, some white ink. I used a sponged to add the ink through the stencil. To my surprise the white ink didn't fade back like most of them do. 

Then I grabbed a scrap of distress smooching I had done a while ago and had in my 'just in case' pile and added that to the front. I stamped the steampunk bug on white cardstock and cut out. I added that to the front of the card and Lasty I added some steampunk gears to the strip of distress cardstock I added so it would tie in together. 

You can join the challenge here.

Not all who wander

   I have a card for you using VivaLasVegaStamps. 

I started out with watercolor paper and 3 colors of green distress inks. I smooched it on my craft mat and added some water to blend the colors. I started with the lightest color and worked my way to the darkest. I dried in-between the colors so they could layer.

Next, I grabbed a Tim Holtz dot stencil and added it the background with the darkest green ink to add a layer.

 

Next, I stamped the Butterfly Specimens in the middle of the panel with black ink. I then stamped Victorian Flourish with the same dark green ink. I only used a corner of the stamp. After that I then stamped Waybill background in brown distress ink randomly over the whole panel. I only used the top part of this stamp. 

To finish it off I edged it in drown distress ink and on top of that I added a layer of black distress ink. Lastly, I stamped Not all who wander saying on white cardstock and layered it on black cardstock and stuck in in the middle of the card.
