Fun Frights with LOC

Hello! I have a new Left of Center challenge to share with you today. We are sponsored by A Day for Daisies, which is one of my absolute favorite digi stamp companies. The theme this week is "Fun Frights." Here's my creation.

I worked with the Owl of Mine image, which I totally love. I colored her with my Tombow watercolor markers.

I can see using all sorts of fun color combinations with this image. I used my Scales stencil from Dreamweaver Stencils. I inked it with gold ink, then embossed it with clear embossing powder on top. I love the subtle look it has, due to using Kraft colored cardstock as my base.

See the shimmer? I added a few silver sequins and a bit of ribbon, plus some deep purple cardstock that had some gold overspray from a previous project. It added some additional shimmer, 'cause you can never have enough! I hope you will join in with LOC this week. Thanks for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!

Love is Love with Nathalie Kalbach and Friends

The Stampendous team is showcasing the fabulous stamps and stencils from Nathalie Kalbach this week, and some of Nathalie's friends have been joining us. There are 3 prize packaages up for grabs, and anyone can win! Visit the Stampendous Blog for full details. I have been thinking a lot about the recent tragedy to the LGBT community in Orlando, and I decided to use Nathalie's Urban Scribble set for today's project. I started off with the foam stamp (the blank side) and colored a rainbow on it using my Tombow Dual Brush markers. I sprayed the foam stamp with a little water to re-wet the colors, and get some nice splotches. I applied the stamp, then I went back with the detail stamp and inked it up with Tuxedo Black Memento ink. Then, using the stencil that comes in the Urban Scribble set, plus the Picasso tool, I stenciled some pixelated clouds in the background. I hand wrote "Love is Love." I decided to not make this a card..but rather some
