The Play Date Cafe Challenge #154

The Play Date Cafe Celebrates 3 Years!
This week's suggested colors 
are great for Halloween
and all the beautiful autumn inspiration around us . . .

Flame ... Grape ... Mulberry

Mulberry - Mulberry - Mulberry, hmmm?  Inktense? No. Copic Ciao? No. Ahhh Prismacolors? Yes there was a color named Mulberry.
Did visit the PDCC DT to figure out what colors they exactly were talking about, and desided to use:
Prismacolors; Crimson red, dark grape and Mulberry.
TH distress inks: dusty concord, barn door and agede mahogny.
Memento: Grape Jelly and Sweet Plum.
Stamps: Dylusion.

Here's my first take on the colors

Think it looks so lonly with only one tag so I deside to make a few more.
See next post....

Challenges I'll join.

AJ_5 The Eye



I am joining 
Colour theme this week:
White/yellow/green

Click on the picture above to find out how to enter the 2012 calendar challenge.You could get a 15% discount off your next order each week.

I do not celebrate Halloween even I think it looks pretty cool, but I wanted to make something weird or spooky and somehow did EYES keep popping up in my mind.
The Craft Barn have have done an oil pastel week, but mine has not arrived yet so I usede Prismacolors for the "eye" and Inktense for the rest.
For once did my highligt stay where I wantede useing the talentede  Lovely Linda's Craft Central! "LOC Spotlight Designer and Crayon Resist Tutorial"
On Tando Creative Online Classes did I see a tutorial about adding texture paste through a mask which I really had to try with my new stencil from dylusions. When it was dry did I ad shadows and Glimmer Glaze to make the raised parts more white and shiny.

Challenges I am joining:
Tando Creative Challenge - using at least two of the following:- PURPLE, ORANGE, GREEN AND BLACK

AJ_4 - dylusions


Thanks to everyone for a comfy Convention in Middelfart, Denmark, and a special thanks to Benedikte from Unikscrap for the wonderful prize that I won.


I've only taken my arms down because I wanted to try all the goodies and of course join;
and try some of the cool techniques from Tando Creative Online Classes: Sprayed ink, stamped with Acrylic paint, painted the leaves with Perfect Pearls, used some of the stamping techniques from the wonderful video. I tryed to stamp on the embossed stars but couldn't make it work so I just stamped with Stazon.

Art Journaling_3



The Craft Barn has a 2012 calendar challenges, which will run for the next 12 weeks, and I could also make Art Journal 2013 calendar pages, so I find that it was a great way to keep working on my AJ. 
DD don't think the theme fits the month and I agree but it was what came to my mind.
I've used: Inktense for my drawings, Vellum, , stamps, Spellbinders, QK
