Good Morning Everyone,
How are you?
Today is the start of a new challenge over at Eclectic Ellapu
This weeks theme is
HALLOWEEN
Now as you know I am not a fan of Halloween, but after making gift cards,
gift tags and sweetie bags, I thought it was time I made an actual Halloween
Card.
Now the card is a little over 5x5
I used my Black soot distress ink to change the colour of the card from the
standard cream to the black.
The next layer was cut down a quater of an inch, coloured in with a purple promarker and mounted onto the card.
The main layer of the card has again been coloured using dress ink
"black soot" I was looking for a wispy
night look to it, so wasn't going 100% perfect on the blending as I wanted
texture to the card. I created my "moon" by cutting out a small
circle and temporary adhering it to the layer before putting the ink on, and
then I pealed the “moon" away leaving the white look.
I used a white ink pad and a star stamp and added a few stars to the back
ground.
All my images have been cut from the cricut.
I cut three bats, a cat, a witch, and a picket fence. I coloured the bats,
witch and cat in with a black promarker
to make them stand out, but left the fence white for additional detail.
I finished the card by adding a ribbon and a bow to the picket fence.
The challenges I would like to enter this card into are:
A Gem of a Challenge - Halloween - 25/10
