31 Nights of Halloween - Night 20

31 Nights of Halloween

This is a special post!  I want you to know that Whimsy is having a big Halloween celebration and you are invited to participate! Hop on over to the Whimsy Inspirations Blog to find out more!

I posted a special post on there, and explained the game you can play to get your name entered into a draw for free images from Yours Truly! So don't wait, head on over there and play! 

For my card, I used my rubber image, "Kitties On Halloween"

I coloured it using multi-media.  I started with Copics, and then used some distress inks and some coloured pencil. I did some sponging on the sky to get the glow around the moon.  I used the distress inks like watercolours, and used a thin water colour brush to do the grass strands. 

The paper is by the wonderful Tracy Wray of Whimsy. It is digital paper from her "Haunted Halloween" pack 1

I am IN LOVE with Tracy's papers, and I just feel so empowered that I can download and print out what ever sheets I want, and as many times as I want when I get one of her packs of digital paper!  It is a dream to be able to do this at home with my own printer! Saves loads of space too!

Layering is a breeze also, because I can layer it in my word program! No more need to carefully cut layers!! Can you tell I love this stuff??? ;-)

Here's a close-up of the image:

Thanks for looking and have a Spook-tacular Day!

Wedding Bells

It's time for another Whimsy Challenge - Anything Goes!  Here's a wedding card I did for my niece using my Whimsy rubber set, "Wedding Bells"!  I also used the Whimsy Die from "Card Builder - Hearts of Love".  The paper is an older digital Whimsy paper no longer available by Michelle Roos. There's only two layers on this card, the image and the paper! 

Copics used were:

Skin tones - E0000, 000, 00, 01, 21, RV93, R20

Greys N2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9

Hair: Y21, E40, 41, 42, 43, 44

White dress: E40, 41, BV20, 23

Too bad you can't see all the sparkle! The wooden heart is covered with glitter glass, and the word "Love" is covered with glitter. The centre of the bow is also glittery! The photo doesn't show it. 

I hope you can join in the Whimsy Challenge this month and by doing so, get a chance to win a 15$ gift voucher for the store!  You must use a Whimsy paper or image in order to enter, but that's not a problem because Whimsy Store has a section where there is always a freebie or two to choose from! 

Thanks for looking and don't forget to join in the challenge!
