I have a quick post today for this week's ColourQ #265 challenge...aren't the colors just amazing! They scream Halloween, right???? My card was inspired by a new technique I learned last week and I have to say I am hooked, so hooked that I will be ordering all the mini Tim Holtz distress ink pads and adorable tin storage containers. More on where I learned this on tomorrow's mid-day blog post. Anyway, I took me about 4 tries to get my sky looking some what decent and spooky all at the same time. Well I hope you will find the time to play along with us at ColourQ, you can never have too many Halloween cards.
Thank you so much for taking time to stop by...enjoy the rest of your day!

ReplyDeleteKim your Halloween sky is fabulous, great distressing! Love the clouds and the witchy wonderfulness!!
ReplyDeleteLove the purple inked sky, Kim!
ReplyDeleteI think you did a fantastic job with the sky, aren't Distress Inks so fun to play with???!!! I would love them all too, especially with the new tins. And the clouds on your card, I haven't seen any like that before. They are perfect for an 'eerie night-time' look. Hope your slowly catching up, that's always the drawback of going away but I'm sure all the good memories of the fun you have are totally worth it!
ReplyDeleteSuch a fun card. Love those colors for Halloween.
ReplyDeleteAwesome Halloween scene card, Kim! Your sky is blended wonderfully, and those images...perfect! Love this!

The purple background looks fantastic, love how the different shades of purple blend together, a great technique!
ReplyDeleteYour distress inked background is fantastic--pretty and spooky all at the same time. Love your image, and your sentiment made me chuckle. I am so happy that you have jumped onto the distress ink bandwagon. You will not regret it--I promise.
ReplyDeleteI'm doing the same thing, Kim ... it's been a whirlwind here too since I got home and tonight is the first time I've managed to get into blogland and start commenting! You have that new technique off to a fine art ... actually you did the first time you used it ... I saw it ... in real life!! This is fantastically spooky ... such a fun sentiment and even the clouds look spooky! Hope life is settling a little for you, my friend! Hugs, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteMade me giggle--such a cute card, Kim!
