CARD DETAILS:

To create this card I was very inspired by the Designer Toner Sheet Marble I totally think It looks like a spooky night sky... So I wanted to create a spooky night scene.  I started by foiling the toner sheet with red Deco Foil.  That was the base for my scene... With Raven cardstock I cut a halloween border and to make it even more spooky I add some bats flying around.


I stamped the Vampire and I wanted to make his cape shinny, to make that I also foiled only his cape by stamping it on a black toner sheet and I foiled it with the same red foil I used for the background. I finally stamped the sentiment with Alabaster Embossing Powder.



Hop along with us for more Halloween inspiration!!!

CARD DETAILS:

To create this card I used the Day of the Death Digital Stamp as I mention before... I measure the card size I wanted and I resize my images to be on the center of my white card base and print them.  I colored this cute skeletons with markers in some day of the death festive colors.  I die cut the banners, this are GinaMarie Designs and colored them with the same tones of the skeletons, I adhere them on top of the skeletons... I totally wanted to give a day of the death party feel to this card.. I use some stickles in gold for a little sparkle and some sequins too.

Watercolor

Hello Friends welcome back for another Wednesday Project...using Brutus Monroe Stamps and products, every Wednesday you can find a Blog Hop at the Brutus Monroe Blog featuring a product or technique of the week!  This week we  want to share with you some watercolor inspiration with you!!!   Brutus Monroe has an amazing new line of  watercolors called Aqua Pigments, the colors are beautiful collection.. you really need to check them out!!! As soon as I have mine I will totally tell you more about them! For my project today I use Color Burst Watercolor powder.


CARD DETAILS:

To create this card I started by choosing the Brutus Monroe Heavy Watercolor Cardstock... this cardstock is amazing... it takes lots of water for your watercolor projects.  I stamp the Conservatory of Quotes on the smooth side of the cardstock with Brutus Monroe Embossing Ink and I use Alabaster Embossing Powder for a more dramatic look.


All you need is a little bit of powder to create an amazing look...I see having this color burst for a long time!!! I then use a green watercolor to paint the leaves and splash some green for a contrast.  To finish I mounted the watercolored panel to a Jurassic Cardstock base and stamped the beautiful sentiment.


There are more beautiful projects from the Design Team to inspire you to take out your watercolors or give the new Aqua Pigments or Color Burst a try...Hop along with us for more ideas:

Spooky Scene/Kinda Cute Digital Stamps October Guest Designer

Hello Friends today I am super excited to announce I am the October guest designer for Kinda Cute by Patricia Alvarez... every Friday of October starting today, I will be sharing some card inspiration using some cute, cute, cute images from the amazing digis from Patricia, let me share my first project using  the Mummy Boy digital stamp.


CARD DETAILS:

To start this card I wanted to do one of my favorite things... which is ink blending, for an amazing background.... I used Oxide inks in colors Squeezed Lemonade, Spiced Marmalade and Wilted Violet and add some water splashes here and there...

 
One of the things I always mention that I love about working with digital stamps is that you can resize them, print all the images you want and you can use them for many things, working with them is amazing... so next I used the silhuette studio program to size and print all the images I wanted to work with and I colored them with markers.


To create this spooky scene I used some black trees and bats and finally adhere the images and stamped the sentiment with Versafine ink.... Want to hang out with them?????


Here is a closer look of the colored the images on the scene.


This is card #9 on my Halloween Card Series 2018.... if you are a Halloween Fan... don´t forget to follow me and this series of some of my favorite old and new stamps for the season.


I want to thank Patricia for the opportunity to design with her amazingly cute images and I encourage you to check out the great selection of images she has at her store!!!

Have an amazing weekend!!!
