I love the intense colors of Halloween and hate to limit this combination to just Halloween. Besides, the DSP Nite Owl has a lot of potential for post Halloween cards. With these thoughts in mind, I created this for last week's Stamp Club:
(The Pear Pizzazz DSP with Raven lace still kind of make me think of Elphaba from Wicked wearing black fishnet stockings!)
This gratitude medallion was my third attempt. I initially tried sponging Razzleberry ink onto the black embossed medallion and it was just too dark. Razzleberry with a blender pen wasn't quite right either. Finally, I started at the middle of the medallion with Daffodil Delight on my sponge dauber, surrounding that with Pumpkin Pie and Tnagerine Tango as I worked my way out. Since I wasn't planning to cut ou tthe whole medallion I used a blender pen to add Melon Mambo around the edges. There isn't any Rich razzle berry on this medallion except the Glimmer brad in the center. I hope the photo captures how well this works. When we did this at stamp club we cut out the entire medallion and layered it since it was easier to just color the whole medallion with daubers.
