Less is More - Black, White & One Color

We have another challenge starting today at Less is More.  This challenge is black, white and one color.  This is a bit of a challenge for me, since I like to use at least 3 colors on each of my projects...and this only allows for one...since black and white are normally there :)


Here's my take on the challenge...

I stamped my main image and colored it with copics.  I then used the die to give the card some interest.  I colored the various dots with copics, then used the inlaid die technique to put them back in the holes.

A pretty quick and simple card.

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

Thanks for stopping by!

Addicted to CAS - Pumpkin

Wow...can't believe it is already Halloween time.  I was walking the dog and saw a funny little graveyard scene in the neighborhood...kinda freaked out the puppy a bit!

We have another challenge starting today at Addicted to CAS!  Our theme for this challenge is Pumpkins.  While, I'm not a huge Halloween person...I have to say some of the cutest stamps are Halloween themed!

Here's my take on the challenge...

Okay this was a super quick and simple card...not just because I forgot about the challenge...but because this is my favorite style.

A little stamping and a bit of Copic coloring is all it takes!















Here's a bit of a close up.  You can see I added the colored panel on a bit of foam tape to give a bit of dimension.

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

Your Next Stamp - Challenge #74

I'm excited to be a guest designer for Your Next Stamp. Today we are kicking off our newest challenge.  This is either a color or sketch challenge.  You can pick either one, or combine both. Winners have a chance to receive a gift certificate to use in the store!  How fun is that!


Here's my take on the challenge.






For this challenge, I focused on color. Of course, perfect for Halloween cards. I used one of my favorite stamp sets: Fang-tastic.  I colored this little guy with Copic Markers, then cut him out and added some foam tape to give him dimension.  I added a few strips of paper to the back to give the overall card a bit of color.

I heat embossed the sentiment and added a few enamel dots!

Here's a closeup of the card.  You can see the dimension of my little Frankinstein.
