Inky Paw's Challenge 184 - Halloween Theme

 


Hello Inky Paws Fans!

We have a NEW challenge coming your way.

 

For this challenge I used the following Newton’s Nook Design’s product.

Franken-Newton

Count Newton

A7 Frames Frames and Banners

Porch Swings Friends 

Using the Halloween Theme, I created this card.


So excited for this card!

I started this card with a card base made with the A7 Frames Scalloped Square.

The card base is die cut front white cardstock.

I die cut the card front out of yellow sunflower cardstock.

By using colored card stock, it makes ink blending a lot easier and faster.

Speaking of ink blending, I started with blending

 Distress Ink from the center of the card out to the edge of the card.

I was not going for a particular look; I just blended the ink till I like what a saw.



To create a focal spot for my card I took masking paper and cut a wonky shape from it.

I placed the wonky shape in the center and ink blended a darker edge on my card.

 Next, I added speckles of white and black with Distress Watercolor Pencil.

After I pulled up the wonky shape, I stamped the tombstones

 from Count Newton on the background with gray ink.

This will help ground the images that I am going to have on my card.

Next, I stamped and colored my images from Franken-Newton and

Count Newton.

I die cut those images out and added them to the front of the card with foam tape.

I also stamped and die cut out some bats and added to the card.

I love to mix up my stamp sets up.

For my sentiment, I chose the sentiment from Porch Swing Friends.

I thought that this is perfect and so cute for this card.

Life is Better - Inky Paws Color Challenge

Hello Inky Paws Fans!

We are at the halfway point of this current challenge.

CHECK OUT THESE COLORS!


Using the challenge colors, I came up with this FUN shaped card.



The base of this card is the “Scalloped Edge Square” from 

the FRAMES SQUARED DIE 

On top of this base is the super cute! PORCH SWING FRIENDS STAMP.

Choosing markers from my stash to match the challenge colors,

 I selectively colored my stamped image in.

Using the BANNER TRIO DIES  I created a place for my sentiment

When I was staging my card, I thought it was a little to flat.

I decided to use part of the PLAID STENCIL SET and the embossing pad for my

die cutting machine to create some texture behind my colored image.


I also added white “stitching” with a gel pen to my quilt.

I hope this inspires you to create something today.
