Color in Sticker Owl

Hello! I am so pleased to share my second project as a White Rose Crafts Design Team Member. This week, we are focusing on "Leaves and Harvest of Color," plus the October Add-Ons to the October Kit. October (and Autumn) is my favorite time of year, so this theme made me very happy. Also, White Rose Crafts has a Sketch Challenge going on right now, so I opted to use that for my card layout. You can check out the sketch at the bottom of my post.

For this card, I decided to work with the Papermania Glitter Color in Stickers- Owl. I colored my owl with PITT pencils from Faber Castell. What I really love about these stickers is that they are just that...stickers! No need for adding adhesive, no cutting. They are perfect for coloring on the go, and then you can apply them to your projects easily.

I used some oval dies that I had in my stash as a mat for the owl (and because it goes with the sketch) and then I worked on my background. The focus is definitely the Gold Shimmer Paper from Craft Creations. The iridescence is stunning! You'll be able to see the wide range of colors that is has on each of my pictures. I also added a few sequins from the Love Potion Sparkle Blend.

Look at the colors and shine on that Gold Shimmer Paper! I love it! And it tears really nicely as you can see. Lastly, I added a simple "Thanks" from Lawn Fawn and heat embossed it with white powder. This card would work with many sentiments. Now, let's compare my card to the sketch, shall we?

I'd say that that's pretty close! If you would like to play along with this month's Sketch Challenge, please click HERE for all of the details. And why not head over to the White Rose Crafts LLC shop to check out all of the wonderful October Add-On items that are on sale? Don't forget to use the code: HAPPY FALL to get your discount. I'll be back tomorrow with another project. Until then, thanks for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!

February Smeared & Smudged Sketch Challenge

The new Smeared & Smudged challenges are up and ready for you to participate in! I got instantly inspired by Kelli’s card sketch for the month, as I have been working with different ideas for my next “Tarot Card.” Haha! That’s actually pretty funny! If you’ve been checking in over the past couple of weeks, you may have seen my Misty Benson Tarot Set 1 ( Smeared Ink ) cards. I’ve used The World and The Fool so far. Today, I bring you Death. Don’t worry…it’s actually a joyful image…one that I intend to use a lot! First, here’s the sketch. I flipped it and changed the ribbon and embellishment a bit. Can I just start off by saying that it is quite nerve wracking to slice your image??? I have done it a few times in the past, but I always get butterflies when I attempt it again. I colored the image and the card itself using nothing but Distress Inks and my Cut-n-Dry Nibs. My skull button at the top has been colored with Alcohol Inks.   The colors look a little off to m

Christmas in July with Imagine Crafts & Stencil Girl!

Hello! Have you heard? The Imagine AIRs have been hopping with Stencil Girl! If you have been here before, you know I loooove me some stencils, so this collaboration was very exciting for me! The teams are hopping for 3 consecutive Saturdays, and this is week 2. I have the entire list of hop links at the bottom of the post. Be sure you don't miss anyone! I decided to to create an extra large gift tag with my new stencils. Using red cardstock, I taped down the Journal Texture #8 Stencil  and inked it up with Golden Glitz Delicata ink . I promise you, this is the BEST gold ink you will ever use! The Journal stamp only has 2 diamonds on it (it's a 4x4" stencil), so after I inked up the first pair, I moved over the stencil, lined it up, and inked again. Next I wanted to do something textural with the Urban Insiders Star . So I took some evergreen cardstock, taped down the star, and slathered on some yummy Iridescent Green Creative Medium . After the medium dried, I ga
