Creepy Peekies #3

 Hi,  Back again today with #3 in my Creepy Peekies cards.


For this card:  Base: Mossy Meadow - Then I layered some designer paper (Heebie Jeebies - Unity Stamps) and a strip of Washi Tape purchased at JoAnn's (which sadly has closed now).

For the focal image. (Creepy Peekies - Unity Stamps) I created a tag out of Basic White cs and a tag punch. I stamped the image in Versa Fine Clair Nocturne ink and colored with pencils (Prisma Color) and blended with Gamsol. Then I splattered some Rusty Hinge Distress Oxide ink (Range) on it.  I also used Black Soot Oxide ink on the edges of the tag.

Other items used:  Purple Bakers Twine, Light Lavender Enamel dots (Paper Studio), Googly Eyes, Fish Tail Die and Foam tape.

Come back tomorrow to see my final card using this set.

"Two fer" card challenge: FMS & CTD

 

Hello and Welcome!
 
Today I'm featuring 2 different cards.  One is for the Color Throwdown and the other is for Freshly Made sketches.
 
Here's where the "Two-fer" part comes in.  I used the same sketch for both cards.

 Freshly Made Sketches #602

Below is the card that I made for FMS#602

 

 

For this card I used a stamp set that I got last year, Hocus Pocus from Photo play.  You can see a couple of the cards I made here and here and here.  (You can check out the links for extra inspiration using that set if you want.)

Card Base: Basic Black, next layer, Only Orange (retired SU) that I stamped the little star image from the set with Only Orange ink.

I added a piece of plaid designer paper (DCWV - Spooky Time) and a piece of purple card stock to the left side.  Image was colored with pencils.  Added some punched bats from the set and some purple sequins to complete the card.

COLOR THROWDOWN#759

This weeks color choices were:

Here is the card I made for this challenge.  - It uses the same sketch as the card above.



This one was "tough" for me. - Card base: Cherry Cobble (for the maroon in the color scheme). Next layer, Only Orange (retired SU) that I embossed with a leaf embossing folder and then brushed metallic Gold ink on.

I stamped some of the leaves (retired SU set, Autumn Leaf Prints) and then water colored them using retired SU watercolor pencils and  water brush.  After it dried I used a different leaf stamp from the same set and Versamark ink and then embossed with Detail Gold embossing powder.  I also used the SU Itty Bitty Background set (retired SU) and some Real Red and Only Orange ink to add some splatters.  The sentiment is from, Stamp Rose.  To finish the card I added some orange baker's twine.

That's it for these two challenges.  I hope you have enjoyed your visit.
