Trick-or-Treat: Lawnfawnatics Challenge 36

Today I am showing a card that I made to enter into the Lawnfawnatics challenge 36.  This challenge was all about using a mood board to inspire your crafting.

The mood board that I used had an autumn theme to it. Thinking of leaves changing and falling I had thought of Halloween. I choose to make a trick-or-treat card because what would be more fun!

I wanted to make my card spooky with a bright and fun feel to it! I choose some fun rainbow paper by Lawn Fawn and used a die to cut a banner out. Using orange paper I used the stitched star frame die to cut an orange star. I had also cut a stitched star out for the center of my card using a blue textured paper. I used a spooky fence border die along with a few types of grass border dies to make a scene. The spider web die that I used is called cute cobweb. It is such a fun die! All of the dies that I have used along with the stamped images you can find through Lawn Fawn. 

I added some distress ink to the edges of my die cuts to give them a dimensional look. For my orange star I added iridescent embossing powder, it looks so much more sparkly in person! I cut my spiders and cobweb out with a black paper attached to a double sided sticky paper. I then sprinkled them with a fine black glitter and for the spiders feet I added a green glitter.  Behind the cobweb you can find a velum paper that I colored with copics. At the top of my card I used a negative from the bayou backdrop as a stencil to add some black crackle paste. 

The rainbow banner that I had cut needed to be darkened so I followed the rainbow pattern and used distress inks around the edges. I had colored it a little too much and was able to fix it with a white pigment marker. I also darkened the edges using grey and black distress inks. I always try to fix something before throwing it out and restarting and usually I can still get the results that I want.

 All of my stamped images are from different lawn fawn sets. I colored all of the images in with copic markers.  I just love coloring with copics and it very well may be my most favorite part of making a card! I want to mention that you really do not need every copic out there. Just start with your favorite shade and pick one light-tone and one mid-tone to go with it.

Everyone have a great day and

until next time keep crafting!
