DAY 4. Graffiti Card

challenge_graphic-650-october

Have you heard of Mommy Lhey? She designs really whimsical stamps that are super fun and Lhey has lots of really cool planner stamps. You can check out the variety here.

I used this and this to create my graffiti card and it was so fun to let loose and go with it. This is the fine tip marker that I created my eyelash lines with. Wink of Stella was added to the dots and her skirt.

After stamping the sentiments I stamped the sentiment again on some masking paper. I cut around the sentiment leaving a boarder.

This is how it looks as I am progressing with the stamping and masking. The misti is a great took and it saves me so much time and paper.

This is how it looks after I finished the stamping and removed the masks.

Lots of doodling and coloring and adding lines and dots. If you look at the large orange dot on the right side of the sun….that blooped out of my marker!! So I shook my over filled copic marker on my paper to make more dots and then let it drip in certain areas on my card.

Glossy accents were added to the orange dots, part of the donuts, on the “hello” and the diamonds. When I was adding glossy accents to the diamonds I was careful to stay in the lines. Once it was dry I reapplied the glossy accents 3 times to really built the diamonds up and give them lots of dimension.

    Such a fun card, Kathy. Love how you turned your blooper into a feature. Those pops of orange really finish off the card. My husband told me to go and order the MISTI and so I did lol. Keeping my fingers crossed it will arrive in time for my birthday at the end of this month.

      Perfect birthday present! You will love the MISTI. It is one of the best tools for stamping. You will save paper and if an image isn’t dark enough you can keep everything in place and stamp it again to make it darker. You will be stamping up a storm. Happy Birthday! 🙂

    i mentioned on IG i loved the bits of orange – it actually breezed thru my head for a second that the orange might be a bit of serendipity. You had a Tim Gunn moment there! You made it work like crazy

    Humm what a cute idea!! Plus your marker leakage worked out great. It’s my luck to always have the opps land in an unrecoverable spot. Nice job.

    October 6, 2015 at 12:36 pm

    I LOVE this card, WOW it is sooo cool really !!! I have to check out these stamps, looks like they might be my style. I love when you make a blooper and admit it, and then tell us how you hide it, we wouldn’t even know if you didn’t tell us, you are so good at covering them up. I love it !!! You crack me up girl.

    • Kathy Racoosin says

      October 6, 2015 at 11:28 pm

      Glad my bloopers crack you up. I’ve made many bloopers in my life so that’s how I know to cover then up or work out hopefully. LOL Relax with color. 🙂

  33. Shona Chambers says

    October 8, 2015 at 8:35 am

    Such a cool idea. My 8yr old son Max loves Graffiti Art so must show him this card.

  34. Olga Dendrinou says

    October 8, 2015 at 1:59 pm

    I really love this card!! You are amazing and very inspiring! I am new to all this so you are teaching me a lot. I create cards for the last 4 years but I have learned so much from following you these last weeks!

  35. Heather B. says

    October 10, 2015 at 10:05 pm

    Love this idea. I totally want to pull out my clear sentiment stamps and give it a go.
