Morning! Woke up to snow - they actually called most of the local schools off last night for today, which blows my mind. LOL I'm going to see Theresa Caputo (remember the Long Island Medium?!?) tonight with my friend An. I'm super excited!
I have 2 cards to share today. First up is a snarky Valentine that I'd like to enter into the following challenges:
Sisterhood of the Snarky Stampers - Love
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday - Love is in the Air
Wednesday's Creative Inspiration - Love is in the Air
Stencil Fun - Anything Goes with a Stencil
I created my background by painting with Lindy's Magicals all over watercolor paper. I let that dry completely and then used a sponge to apply Oxide Ink through my Stupid Face stencil (heart & text) from A Colorful Life Designs (use code JennFan10 for 10% off). I sponged the edges in black - voila. Simple but effective - and nice and shimmery, too!

I'd like to enter the next card into the following challenges:
A Cut Above - Anything Goes with Die Cuts
Halloween Crafts All Year Round
Two Old Bats - Anything Goes Halloween

I had an absolute ball making this card. LOL I almost always stamp, whether it's a digi or traditional stamp, but this card was made completely with die-cuts and rub-ons. I also have really struggled with shaker cards in the past, but I found this tutorial on Stamptastic Design's Youtube channel that really helped me pull this one off successfully! I used the Spooky Forest Backdrop die set from Lawn Fawn. My background is just a piece of watercolor paper that I blended Black Soot Oxide ink on and then sprayed with water and blotted with a paper towel. I used some rub-ons from Tim Holtz for the gravestones. My shaker star pieces are from the Card Bling section at A Colorful Life Designs. I'm so pleased with how this one came out! Peace.
Fabulous cards, and a great spooky scene!

ReplyDeleteOh thank you! It was amazing, I didn't get a reading but it was absolutely incredible watching her read so many other people and I cried almost the entire night. LOL it was very touching!
DeleteGreat cards! I love the Halloween card - the depth of the background and use of stickers and die cuts makes this a great card to send Halloween cheer to a friend. So glad you joined our shaker card challenge at Die Cut Divas.
