The Card Concept DT #43: Photo Inspiration

Wednesday, November 04, 2015

Hello, Crafty Friends!

It's time for a new challenge at The Card Concept - {Thank - Fall}! 
This is the beautiful photo inspiration:


Feel free to use any of the styles of our team or better yet, share you own style by combining one or more of the styles. We want you to have fun and make a card in a style that you feel good about!

The styles are explained HERE.

Here's my Mixed Media card...I was inspired by the pumpkins and leaves:


Challenges:
1. Word Art Wed #208: Anything Goes
2. Simon Says Wed Thanks/Thanksgiving
3. Simon Says Mon So Glossy
4. Mixed Media Monthly Challenge #18: Texture



I stamped the Inkadinkado image using Memento Coffee Bean and Paris Dusk ink pads (Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko) and a green marker. I fussy cut it and added more colors with markers.
Then, I inked the image with VersaMark and heat embossed it, half in Sparkle and half in clear. I repeated a second time with clear.

I placed the image on cardstock and stamped a leaf image several times with Memento Luxe Dandelion (Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko)...love the vibrant color!
 I heat set both cardstock and image. 
Then, I placed the leaf panel on my card base and I splattered All-Purpose Ink (Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko) in Poppy Red and Apple Green with a paintbrush. API is my new favorite ink for splatters!


After I splattered Poppy Red, I painted the left side of my card base. I also sprayed Ink Potion no.9 (Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko) and brushed over it with my paintbrush to spread the red paint.
Finally, I adhered the display image with foam tape.



Have a nice week!

    I saw your card over at Simon Says and just had to come take a closer look.
    It's lovely, almost 3-D.
