Apples and Kraft

Hi there blog friends!  
I have a  card with many Technique Junkie techniques and a color challenge from StampTV  Free For All Friday to show you.  I made my card with the techniques from TJ in mind, but then over at StampTV, the super (uber) talented Suzanne Dean, DT member, has challenged us to a Kraft + Red challenge.  How perfect was that timing???  






First the Techniques:  The bg was done using the "Texture Plate Smoosh" Technique by Donna Duquette.  I also used the "Stacked Nesties" technique. 
Second, Products Used:  Gina K CS Pure Luxury Kraft, Black Onyx, Sweet Mango, and Spiced Pumpkin.  Stamps:  GKD Showtime Stamp Kit "Signs of Autumn". Copic Markers and raffia .  Spellbinders labels 18, 22 and Curved Rectangles.  Inks used in the background were DI inks "Walnut", "Wild Honey" and "Scattered Straw".  


Thanks for stopping by and I sure do treasure your comments.

Spooky Shadowbox

Greetings blog friends!  Yesterday I told you I would show you a fabulous shadowbox wall hanging I made during a class taught by the talented Karen Cheetham.  It was so much fun and the shadowbox is an amazing piece.
