'Take A Technique' - Colour

A friend pointed out that as I love working with colour I should enter the April 'Take It, Make It challenge' run by Craft Stamper the magazine we both subscribe to.  So this is my first Take It, Make It Blog challenge and my 'Take A Technique' - Colour entry!

I decided to feature the Lawn Fawn 'Monster Mash' stamps and set then into a folding 3d box card.  The monsters reminded me of space so I decided to use circles (planets) along with the cut-out monsters to provide the dimension.  I made a template or die cut circles and used with distressed inks and cosmic shimmer texture paste on the blue card before spraying with distressed ink spray.  The die cut circles lost some of the strong distress ink colour when I sprayed with goosebumps to add texture and shimmer.  I coloured the die cut monsters with copic markers.  The monsters and circles where attached to the box using small strips of acetate.

Craft supplies used: Lawn Fawn 'monster mash' stamps Lawn cuts 'monster mash' Distressed inks: picked raspberry, seedless preserves, spiced marmalade, ripe persimmon, mustard seed, crushed olive, mowed lawn, peacock feathers and evergreen bough.

I then made the greeting and attached, along with some gems and the green ribbon.
