This first card uses the August Stamp of the Month "What a Hoot". I stamped the owl on a piece of 4" x 5.25" white daisy cardstock, then clear embossed the "happy 'Owl'oween" over it in a pattern, then sponged over it with sunset and gypsy ink. I stamped the owl again on a piece of white cardstock, painted it using a water brush and gypsy ink, and adhered it over the owl on the card. I turned it just a little hoping to imply motion. The wings are stamped in gypsy, and the mask and orange are colored using one of the new markers. I framed it with black cardstock on a white card base. The mask, pumpkin and wings are fussy cut and adhered with foam dots, though you can't tell from the scanned image.
This second card also uses embossing, both wet and dry! The piece of black card stock is embossed using the quatrefoil embossing folder. The small center background piece was sponged with pixie, cotton candy, and thistle ink. I then embossed flowers from the "A Blossom" stamp set in clear ink. Then sponged more thistle ink over the entire piece. The leaves are from the Lollydoodle WOTG stamp set and stamped in pear, the flower stamped in Pixie on white daisy cardstock, with glitter and a small black sparkle from the Sparkles Assortment black & grey. The flower is raised on a foam dot. The stamped background is framed in black cardstock, and pear cardstock.
Still have a few things started I am playing with, plus I will also be posting what we will be doing Thursday evening, July 24th. Standby!
