For The Love Of Music!

 

Hello I am so happy to be on the Oddball Stamps blog today sharing this card I made using digital images CCC #115 Music Festival and Image #99 Creepy Cute Canadian Oddball Girl. I loved this image from the moment I saw it, because I absolutely love music the louder the better! 

I basically created this card using my Karin Brushmarkers and some diluted watercolor for the background. To add some interest I gave this card some  peppery splatters and a few enamel dots. I am definitely feeling the good vibes with this music lovers card!

Sweet Smiling Skulls

Hello!!

Today I bring you the tutorial of how I have made this card with the weekly free digital stamp of Oddball Art Stamps, CCC117 Sweet Smiling Skulls, which, if you are a Premium member, this week brings surprise: an exclusive collection of papers!!

The theme this month is "Dog Days", and the weekly theme "Sweet Smiling Skulls"

Taking all this, I have made this card with the images #304Beetlejuice Tribute the Ghost with the Most and #61 Creepy Cute Punk Mohawk Girl.

The sandwich is part of the freebie, and the base paper is one of the collection exclusive.

After coloring the stamps and cutting them out, I glued the two girls intertwining together.

I die cut a card stock with a grass border and inked it with I-Zink Menthe color ink. Then I splashed some water on it.

I applied a cloud stencil and I-Zink Mer du Sud blue ink to the card panel.

I finally glued everything together to get the scene I wanted.

As simple as that.

I hope you like it and inspire you to carry out your own projects.

Today I have made a simple accordion card on which to display ATCs

Step One

I made the accordion by taking a 12 by 3 inches strip of card and scoring it at every 2 inches. I then folded this into a zigzag!

Step Two

I made 4 ATCs using dies from the Tonic ATC Collection die set, grey card and some Distress background. I printed the images, coloured them with Copics and cut them out.

Step Three

I added three ATCs to the folded card.

Step Four.

The fourth one was to go on the belly band.

Step Five.

I then added the finishing touches - a little faux stitching with a fineliner and a few more punched images.

Happy Crafting!!

Hey Creepy Cuties!

Its Celia from Paper Beats Rock Designs back with a quick look at the card I created using this weeks edition to the Creepy Cute Chronicles #116 Long Summer Nights. I paired it up with stamp #499 Kiss my Sass (Woodland Creatures)  and #376 Birch Trees to make a cute lil camping scene around the bonfire.

This weeks stamp also includes some marshmallows on a stick and a sentiment (not shown). Make sure you're signed up for the Creepy Cute Chronicles to receive your free stamp every Friday!

Summer nights

This cheeky little fairy is using her wand to roast marshmallows..
....be careful that the smoke spites don’t t get in your hair!

     Hi everyone! Happy Friday and all that!  This week at Oddballartstamps issue 116 our theme is long summer nights.  One of my favorite things to do is hang out around a fire, roast marshmallows and visit with friends.  What is your favorite part of summer?
     This card is cram packed with images so let’s get started.  The premium images for this week include the fire, marshmallows and cute little smoke fellas.  The background (look closely) is Dots and doodles digital paper that I reduced the opacity on (made them lighter). Then I blended Tim Holtz distress ink (seedless preserves, salty ocean and peacock feathers) to create a night sky.  The moon fairy, Creepy Clair #64 and Delhia #70 were colored with Prisma colored pencils and Blackwidow skin tone pencils.  Last but not least the fairy jar is from this month’s premium digital images.

Do you think about your light source when you color?
I don’t always, but it can produce a dramatic effect at times.
In this situation you know the light came from the fire  ( arrows show direct of the light source )
So the side closest to the flame will be lighter.  I also added yellow as an undertone for her
skin to give the feeling of a warm glow.

The Story Teller

Hello it's Friday and  I"m sharing a fun card on the Oddball blog today.  Long summer nights is the theme and I thought the storyteller was perfect for this theme and these images.  Who doesn't love toasting marshmallows under a starry sky and telling spooky stories until someone says "what was that?" and everyone screams! To create this fun campfire scene I began by creating a galaxy background using watercolor.  These awesome  images are CCC #116 long summer nights and the little ghost is  from CCC # 66 Lydia I colored all the images using my markers!  Long Summer Nights is a free Creepy Cute Chronicles  download or for $15.00 a year you have unlimited access to a library full of images!

Hope everyone has an amazing weekend thanks for stopping by! Details are also up on my blog wizardessofcards.com

Inspired- CCC # 78 Gwendoline

I' m here on The Oddball Stamps blog today, sharing a Slimline card I made using CCC# 78 Gwendoline and the Unicorn Spiders image! This image is available in the shop! I want to start by saying that I was totally inspired by my crafty friend @ritzyhag, to explore the art of  heat embossing on digital stamps. I heat embossed Gwens fur around her jacket using an emboss it pen and chunky white embossing powder. I loved the way it turned out! I also colored this image on craft card stock using my markers and pencils, I was happy the way this turned out as well. This became a card of uniqueness!

Hope you enjoyed my unique inspiration, Hope you get a chance to check out this weeks Creepy Cute Chronicles Newsletter there's always a free image for you to download! Oddball also has an amazing subscription 1 year $15.00 that's it and you get access to a library full of images to download whenever you like!
