31DOH - Day 2 and Challenge #4 at A Inky Mess

Here's my DT inspiration piece of the latest challenge over at A Inky Mess.

This month's challenge #4 is sponsored by Oddball Art Co by Lizzy Love and I've used Jasmyn No. 67.

This is also my Day 2 project for 31 Days of Halloween. You will find the blog hop with links over to your left in the side bar to visit the other participating members.


So here's my make. I used a 6"x6" base card in orange, and layered a piece of fussy cut wallpaper on to it, and using a Distress Crayon in Dark Grey I added some grunge around the edge. I used Distress Ink in Old Paper with my finger to add some patina to the wallpaper image.

I coloured Jasmyn in with my Polychromos pencils -using orange, black and greys to coordinate with the base card and the background and then fussy cut her and her cute bats out before affixing to the background. Here's a close up of her.

Please do pop by to A Inky Mess and join in with Challenge #4 - it's anything goes as long as mixed media. And don't forget to pop over to the other blogs that are in the 31DOH blog hop.

I shall see you tomorrow with my next make!

I have entered this into the following challenges:
World Wide Open DT Challenge #14 - AG

    Love that window.
    Jasmyn's hair matches the orange
    of the background. She looks
    pretty wore out.
    Great project.
    thanks for sharing.

      she does look a little worn out doesn't she!!! wonder what she's been up to? Thanks for the lovely comment - yes I decided to go with the orange to match the card base - it's a colour I steer away from normally but I seem to gravitate towards at Halloween :D xx

    Wow this is a stunner. Image fantastically coloured and the use of fussy cutting out a wallpaper design was clever and suited this project perfectly. Looks absolutely fabulous. Nice work, love it.
    Thank you for sharing with us here today at World Wide Open Design Team Challenge and best of luck with your entry.
