myasperations 10-15-22

It’s the 15th of the month, so I get to share my DT card for the challenge at QKR Stampede. Stop by the challenge, which is always “Anything Goes” and several prizes are awarded. Maybe you’ll be inspired to enter a card or two yourself?
For this simple card, I used a sweet digi named "Bunch of Chicks" with a soft pastel color scheme. I added color to the two peeps in the front since they take primary roles on this card.  I printed off an extra copy of the little chick in the center, colored it, and perched the little cutie on the inside sentiment, popping him out a bit with a square foam tape. I embellished the sentiments with puffy heart stickers.
Supplies: 
·   Digi- Eureka Digital Stamp (Bunch of Chicks) Also available in unmounted or cling-mounted

·   Colored with Spectrum Noir Classique markers, decorative chalks, and a Sakura Gelly Roll white gel pen

·   Sentiments- Little Scraps of Heaven Digi Set (Retired)  

·   Puffy Heart Stickers- Stickos

·   All other items from my stash.

Allsorts Challenge- Week 698: Sentiment  

Power Poppy’s current challenge theme is all about Fruits and Vegetables. For this card I used the image from “Maize for Days” digi set, altering the digi a bit by cropping the top and left side, then colored with several different mediums. I decided to use a pale golden and brown color scheme on the card, except for the wonderful deep colors of the kernels.    
Supplies: 

·   Digi and Front Sentiment- Power Poppy Digi Set (Maize for Days)

·   Colored with Spectrum Noir Classique markers, white colored pencil, and Sakura Gelly Roll white gel pen

·   Inside Sentiment- “Happy Fall” from Power Poppy Digital Set (Autumns Opulence)

·   Kraft photo corners available from several web sources (WXJ13 Photo Mounting Corners)

·   Scrap of vinyl wallpaper, cardstock, and other items from my stash.

I enjoy layering digis over backgrounds using a free Word program named Paint.net (find link in my supplies list.) Even though I am considered by many to be” tech impaired” I was able to put this scene together using digis (jpgs and pngs) from two different companies… and love the result! I posted a picture of the layered scene that I was able to just copy, size, and print off. (Note-I added a WM to this picture to respect the company's copyrights.  The original that I saved to my laptop so that I can make similar cards in the future has no WM. Easy Peasy!)
 
Supplies: 

·   Ghost Digi- Sweet November Stamps (Boo Loves Scary Larry)

·   Fence Digi- Sweet November Stamps (Scene Builder-Pumpkin Patch)

·   Colored with Spectrum Noir Classique markers and Sakura Gelly Roll white gel pen

·   Moonlit Sky-We Are 3 Digital Paper (Moody Night)

·   Front Sentiment Freebie from TlcCreations (Wishing You A FaBOOlous Halloween)

·   Inside- Sentiment label and critter stickers from my scrapbook stash

·   Free Paint.net program can be found HERE (add watermarks, layer digis, and more!)

·   All other items from my stash.
