A card and a technique journal.

Hello stampers!

Only 4 more days (including today) to get your entries in for the Orange, Black, and White challenge! I don't know about you, but I've loved seeing all the different entries this month! They're all been fabulous and these next two are no exception!

First up we have this great card from Janet O'Brien:


Janet has used a robot stamp from the Darkroom Door Robot Vol 2 stamp set, Ferngully sheep stamp, Stampendous Alphabet stamps, Bazzill cardstock, and Making Memories patterned paper.

Janet stamped the robot on watercolour paper and coloured it in with Marvy pens and a blender pen and decorated it with Kaisercraft pearls. She then stamped the sheep 4 times on watercolour paper and slightly coloured them.

Awesome card Janet!

Next up we have this altered technique journal from Danielle O'Connor:


From Danielle:

"I started by covering the whole front with orange acrylic paint and when that dried I applied a crackle medium then applied black acrylic to give a contrasting effect with the cracks. I then made a stencil with a punch and stuck it to the side and filled the areas with texture paste. After the paste dried I painted it orange and stamped a Darkroom Door Ornate Elements stamp with black stazon over the texture paste".


"For my main image I used a brushless watercolour technique I saw at my LSS and on Hero Arts blog. I used Autumn Leaves stamp - Fine and Dandy, Marvey markers in orange and black (of course) I inked and distressed the edges with Versacube in Topaz and stamped my Stampington Script stamp in Topaz as well. Finished it all up with some cuttlebugged embossed orange Bazzill, some ribbons down the spine, a Kaisercraft Inspire rub-on, some beads, cord and flowers".

Gorgeous Danielle!

Brrrrrrr! It's getting cold now! Anyone else freezing too?! LOL! What better excuse to stay indoors in front of the heater and stamp away! LOL!
