JIC- Kenny K, Metal Embellishments

Hello Bloggers

As you will know if you've been following my blog for a while I am on Team A at Just Inspirational Challenges. Well the owner Kelly and Kate have been having a think about how to make the challenges more appealing and to entice more of you to enter etc etc and they decided that instead of having an inspirational photo for every challenge we would sometimes use one and other times use a photo of something that you must use in your creation, for example this weeks photo is of flowers which means you must have flowers on your make somewhere.

 This weeks  theme is Metal Embellishments and the sponsor is Kenny K

 Here is my card for this week

The card is A5 in size made from card from papermill. The orange paper is a download from craftylious which is then backed onto navy blue card from papermill. The green paper is a free download which is then also backed onto navy blue card. Both backing papers are then stuck onto the red backing paper which is also from papermill. I have then used a metal charm from Beadysmyth, then Ribbons from my stash. The image is Trick or Treat and is available to buy from the Kenny K store. I have coloured it in using Promarkers then I have raised up the ghost and the 2 boys, the bats have also been glazed. The colours I have used are: Bats- Black,  Moon- Primrose
Grim Reaper- Ice Grey 4, Cool Grey 5, Metallic Silver,    Boys- Putty, Almond, Black, Cornflower, Denim Blue, Ruby, Red, True Blue, Sunflower, Azure
