Inkyspirational DT Call # 3

2nd post today
This is my third card for the new blog Inkyspirtional DT Call - to find out more please visit here and here.  
Mynette, who has organised the call, has provided this photo for an inkyspiration...............

This is my card.  I have matted onto black, red and white. The main image has been created using a bird stamp, purchased from E-bay, along with the sentiment, I think it is a Time Holtz one, not totally sure. The branches are from Inidgo Blu, from Nature 1 set. I created the moon with a punched out sticky note circle, coloured first with Pumice Stone (grey), then brushed around the edges with black soot. The berries, were created with an idea from Sheena Douglas, I used the eraser at the end of a pencil as a stamp into Fired Brick, works a treat I think. Thanks Sheena. 

Inkyspirational DT Call - Card 2

Mynette is looking for a DT for her new upcoming Inkyspirational Challenge Blog, please check here for more information. this is my second of four cards for the DT call. A colour combination, not, if I may say Mynette, the easiest in the world, but it certainly made me think. LOL.

This is the required colour palette....................
This is my interpretation of the colours, maybe not a perfect mix, I think my colours may have got diluted crossing the big pond. LOL

The main design of the card was matted onto the dark brown. I brushed around all edges with Broken China DI (sky blue) I used all 3 colours to stamp the flowers and leaves, using some of my well loved Tapestry stamps. The fairies are from a Sheena stamp set, 'Hidden Fairies with Ivy'. I used a punch for the decorative border on the brown paper. Added a decoupaged blue bow from Chloe stamps. Adding some stamping onto the flap of the envelope adds even more interest before the card is even opened. Many thanks to my those who have recently added to my followers,I do hope you enjoy your visits and find something which either helps, guides or maybe just gives you pleasure.

Inkyspirational - A New Blog Coming Soon

A blogging and fellow DT friend of mine Mynette at On a Stampage is planning on starting a new challenge blog, read all about it, on her blog.  Mynette is looking for a DT, so I thought I would enter, for it does sound as if the new blog will be challenging and fun. There are four challenges for your to complete if your interested. Challenge #1 is to CASE, one of her cards. Now I knew what it meant, but I have looked it up to check exactly what the acronym says - it is Copy And Steal Everything. I don't think I've been totally true for  I have changed it slightly, put it down to the time of the year. This is Mynette's card...........

and this is mine.......................

I have embossed a piece of core'dinations card, with a Spellbinders M-Bossibilities, sanded it to expose the core. Matted onto a piece of black paper. The Trick or Treat, spider's web  and pumpkin stamps are from Tandastamps. The swirl is from a Marianne die. Okay Mynette, one down, three to go. Thanks for the opportunity.
