New Release Inspiration from Jennifer

Hello Oddballs! Jennifer here, and I have a FUN post for you today to show off another of the CUTE CUTE CUTE new release animal images that you can find in the Oddball Art Stamps Etsy Shop! 

I had a lot of fun creating this card featuring these adorable goldfish - Image No. 410. I actually turned them into Betta Fish - my boys each have a betta fish, one is blue and one is burgundy and pinkish. So this project was inspired by those guys - Darwin & Gumball.

Don't forget, we still have our monthly challenge at Oddball Art Stamps that we'd love to have you play along with! You can read all the details HERE. There are still plenty of prizes up for grabs, and time to enter!! The month's optional theme is "Christmas Lights".

Be sure to use coupon code DTJENNIFER10 when you're shopping at the Oddball Etsy Shop so you can save a few pennies!! So many new images in the store; don't miss out!

Bottle Cap Photo - Tutorial

Hi Oddballs

  

Its me... Tina: Today I have a photo tutorial for you. I like to show you...            

                                                    

...how to pimp Bottle Caps

                                         

1. 

 

You select your images and print them in the size of the bottle caps.

2.

Then you punch her out with the circle punch. My here has 1'inch

3.

I already printed 2 images in color because I had already processed them last year.

I have colored the other 3 now with polycolor pencils.

4.

Now the bottle caps are cranked flat with the Big Shot.

4-2.

4-3.

5.

The round paper motifs you can fix with clear glue.

6.

Now there are different ways to cover your motives.

1. with a finished silicone lid

(I can not think of the right name for it)

But I prefer covering with Glossy Accents.

7.

Fill with Glossy Accents and let dry well.

8.

You either stick the bottle caps on a card or

you knock a hole in the edge with a screw and a hammer.

9.

I pulled a key ring through the hole and attached a ball chain to it.

So you can now wear the bottle cap on a bag or the keychain.

I would be glad,

if you also make something nice after the photo tutorial.

I  used for my project.

"X-Mas Fred" #352

"Bone Wreath" #351

"Spooky Sweet Skulls" #248

Creepy Holidays

Hello Oddballs

It´s me - Tina: For our challenge in December with the theme Christmas Lights I used a mix of different files for my card. 

The following DigiStamps were processed here. Cute Zombie Giraffe #146 / Fran Tick & Dave the BAt #273 and  Hanging Around the Holidays #277

I spatted the structure paste the background on kraft paper, put on a couple of paper sheets and painted all of them with acrylics in green, gray, and black. A piece of bakery knit wrapped and then the attached motifs. I dyed them with polychromos.

And now I would like to see many of your great works at the Challenge.

Hi Oddballs - Angie here with another Inspiration Post for our New Releases.
