Hi everyone! Did you all have a nice weekend? I spent mine wishing to be at scrapfest, so jealous!! But anyway, on Saturday I got to play at the scramble over at the Hero Arts flickr group. It was a lot of fun, so I am sharing with you the card I made.
The challenge was to use texture, and I did that with the embossing of the Envelope Pattern. I inked over the top of the panel with Weathered wood and Pumice Stone and punched the window out of the panel and the front of the card. I stamped the robot on a piece of white cardstock, colored it with Promarkers and cut it. Then I glued it on the inside of the card.
I cut the sentiment using the silhouette and colored it with different colors of distress ink. Glued the sentiment over the front panel and glued it to the front of the card with dimensionals.
The scramble was a lot of fun, and definitely a challenge, as I normally take longer than 90 minutes to make a card, so I will be participating in another scrambles for sure!!
Hope you liked the card, and thanks for stopping by!!
Hiya! Today I am sharing another window card for the Hero Arts September Challenge.
I cut the card and the front panel using my silhouette, so I had a perfect window. I embossed the Canvas Stripes with clear powder over the front panel, and color over the top with Dusky Rose Promarker. To avoid the embossed area getting colored, I use a rug over it just after coloring it. Then I took white ribbon and colored it with the same marker, and I glued it to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment from the Find Joy set with black Memento ink and mounted the front panel on dimensionals.
I stamped the flower on white cardstock with black Memento ink and colored them with Promarkers (on the supplies list). After I hand cut each of the layers of the flower, I covered each layer with Glossy Accents and glued them together with dimensionals. Used some Diamond Stickles in the center, and once it dried, covered it with Glossy Accents too.
Ok, that was the card, but now, I wanted to share a couple of things with you.
First of all, have you checked out this giveaway that Joy is having at her blog? You still have time to comment, and if not, just go and check her blog, she is amazing! Here is a pic of what you can get:
And to finish this long post, have you seen the amazing new limited edition distress inks coming out for fall? You need to get them soon, cause they will be sold out in no time, and those colors are awesome!!!
OK, I think that is all for today, thanks for stopping by!!
Hi everyone! I decided to do my first Halloween card, and that is my first Halloween card ever, cause here we don't celebrate it, so I never needed one. But I love the designs that Hero Arts has for the Silhouette for Halloween, and it goes with this month challenge, so here it is:
So everything on this card is from Hero Arts. First of all, I used my silhouette to cut all the designs (Haunted house, bats and sentiment) from white cardstock. I used distress inks and an ink applicator to color all the die cuts, the colors I used are on the supplies list. I used two stamps on the background panel, the Envelope Pattern on the hill, and the Magical Background on the sky.
Then I mounted the house on dimensionals and I glued the bats fluffing the wings up for dimension.
Part of the sentiment is glued to the house and the rest is on dimensionals, and I covered it completely with glossy accents.
Here is a close up:
I love this Halloween die cuts from Hero Arts, they are lovely! So, probably I will be making more Halloween cards!!
Hope you liked it and thanks for stopping by!!
