  Good afternoon, I'm here with a fun Halloween card for you today using VLVS.

                                                                      Stamps Used:

                                                               20278 glycerine label

                                                                 19697 pentagram

I started making a film strip from a die cut. I cut out again in cream cardstock so I could use it for the middle. I colored it with distress inks, and I stamped plague doctor and grunge writing.

To make the card base I used the same colors of distress inks and I stamped witch hazel,  glycerine label   , mercurial ointment, small spider web, and pentagram.

Next, I glued the film strip down on the front of the card.

I stamped the witches broom on a separate piece of paper and colored it with copic markers and cut it out. I added some Halloween ephemera.

Universe challenge

 Good morning to you all. Today starts a new challenge over at The Male Room blog. Universe challenge. I decided to make some bookmarks.

 I had so much fun making these I made 3. I stared off all of them in the same way, I stamped my image and then I put masking fluid on all of the images and let it dry. I did it this way because I did want to fussy cut out all 3 of the images to make masks. 

This one is my favorite. I started out with 5 different colors of distress inks. A pink, blue, yellow, green and a purple. I added them too different parts of the background. I did the same for all 3 of the bookmarks.

I then added black distress ink to the bookmarks in the spaces that I didn't add any of the color. Next, I added some water drops to make layers. 

After that I added some white splatter for the stars in my galaxy. I then took off the masking fluid and layered the bookmarks on white cardstock.

Joun the fun challenge over at The Male Room blog. The universe awaits.

Just Hello

 Good morning, there is a new challenge over at The Male Room blog today. Cats or dogs is the new challenge. I went with dogs.

I started by stamping the dog (he is from Lost Coast stamps) and coloring him with copic markers. He was just sitting there, and he looked like he needed a top hat, so I stamped that and cut out. 

I added some black splatters and edged it in brown ink. I die cut out the saying and then added some ephemera around and that is the card.
