Hello, crafty friends! Today I'm super happy to share a project with you guys for Clever Dexter Challenge#22 - HELLO AUTUMN Oddball Art Co. is our lovely sponsor and she has gifted gorgeous Autumn Trails Digi stamps to use for this Clever Dexter Challenge. I chose the colors as per our optional color palette; The card was pretty easy to make, I started by creating the background using Distress Inks and then printed the image using a laser printer and then used my laminator to add gold foil details.
Using Prismacolor color pencils, I colored the pumpkin image and then added it to the background. For the sentiment, I used 'so thankful' and gold embossed it as well. I hope you will join this Clever Dexter Challenge! Spread kindness, spark your creativity, and grab a couple of Oddball Art Co. (though not required to win), and make something awesome today! Thank you so much for stopping by, Keep crafting... "When black cats prowl and flying bats are seen, you know 'tis the time of Halloween!" Hello all you ghouls out there! Finally it is that time of the year againg, crisp cold winds and pumpkin pie spice filling the air... I thought I should be making a spooky card, and this idea was also inspired by the current INSPIRATION STATION Challenge theme board, take a look... Starting with creating the background, I used color splashes in the colors Spring Dandelion, Pot Marigold and Black Tulip from top downwards. I let it dry completely and dusted it heavily with a powder tool, then I stamped the main mannor image from the stamp set, at the right side of the panel, with some embossing ink, sprinkled black glitter embossing powder and then heat set it. Similarly, I heat set the rustic fence and the crows also. The passage was created by using embossing pen and powder, then heat setting it as well! Also, I added a few battys; coz what is halloween without bats annd ravens?! For the sentiment, I simply heat set that as well, and our card is done! This card was so much fun to make and so apt for the occasion. I hope this card inspires you to create and join in the fun challenge!

EK SUCCESS POWDER TOOL Hello, crafty friends! Today I'm super happy to share an interactive project with you guys for Clever Dexter Challenge#22 - HELLO AUTUMN Oddball Art Co. is our lovely sponsor and she has gifted gorgeous Digi stamps to use for this Clever Dexter Challenge. This shaker card was easy to put together, I started by creating the background using a pastel teal pattern paper and then using foam tape, I created a well for the pastel colored sequins and then topped it with a clear acetate and a pink cover over it to hide foam. Next, I copic colored the unicorn and pumpkin and fussy cut it out, then added it to this panel. For the sentiment, I used a heart tag die and die cut the sentiment and then glued it as well.
