Party Time Tuesday Challenge # 108 - Color


Hello Friends!

Today’s Party Time Tuesdays challenge is a color challenge.  I love reds, blacks and whites together, so this was a fun challenge for me.



I have used My Mind’s Eye papers on a black background.  The image, Magnolia, Lady Bug Tilda, was stamped on cryogen paper and cut out with My Favorite Things round banner die.  I kept this card very simple with just a Sizzix Flourish #10, some perfect pearls, stickles and button with a little tulle behind it.
 


Copics used:
Skin:  E000, E00, E11
Pants/Hat:  T0, T1, T3, T5
Jacket:  R24, R27, R89
Heart:  R24, R27, R89, W1, 0
Hair:  E30, E35, E39



I did not finish the inside of the card, as I am not sure who will get this one. Once I decide that, I will add the sentiment.

Loves Rubberstamps – Sensational Sunday Inspiration

Hello Friends!


I am back with more inspiration for you today with Loves Rubberstamps

I have seen a few cards lately with red and pink and have loved them.  So I decided to add some black to the red and pink.  I started with the background of My Mind’s Eye, Lost and Found 3 Ruby design paper as my background.  I used a Martha Stewart punch to punch a lacey edge on white paper.  I was not happy with just plain white cardstock, so I used some embossing ink and applied Ranger Perfect Pearls in white.  It has a beautiful shine, although it is a bit hard to see in this picture. 

The image Devilish Lucy, by C. C. Designs, is stamped with memento ink on cryogen paper and colored with my copics. I used some Ruby Red stickles on her tail.  I cut her out using Spellbinders Labels 4 die.   I used Tim  Holtz Distress Ink in Spun Sugar around the edges.   The card is finished off with some flowers.  The center flower was originally white. I airbrushed it with my topic airbrush system to add some color.  The flourish was cut out with a Sizzix flourish #10  die and adorned with Perfect Pearls. 




Copics used:
Hair/Shoes:  C3, C5, C7, C0, 100, 0
Dress:  R24, R29, E07
Skin:  E000, E00, E21
Horns:  E53


I have used the same layout for the inside of the card as I used on the outside.   The sentiment is by Greeting Farm "Because of You".
