2nd project for Koala-t crafts

Here is my card I made for Koala -t crafts as a guest design team member for the month of September. The challenge was to use one of their Frightful Fall digital Images, and/or the colors Purple & Orange and Leaves. So what I did was, I used various brands of alcohol markers along with Wink of Stella glitter pens in clear and black to color in this fella. I also used my favorite white Gellyroll pen to create the look of twinkling stars! So, this image is actually upside down... lol  I wanted this little guy to be hanging as bats do! So I printed it onto card stock and flipped him around, super simple!

Guest Design Team Projects for Koala - T Crafts

First, let me just say I have been making cards for years now actually..
( I remember being a newbie like it was just yesterday! )
In all of these years I would like to think my cards have gotten substantially
better as all things usually do with practice.

Over these said years I have tried out for design team spots after hearing over and over and over that I should be on one.  To no avail did I ever make the cut, until now. I am proud to say I am a guest design team member for Koala-t crafts! The owner of this online shop Jen Evers, amazes me!  amazing Products, amazing You-Tube videos, amazing customer service, amazing digital images ,, OK you get it right? amazing!

How I made my cards and supplies used

On to my projects- my challenge was to create 2 paper projects for the month of September, I could use the colors orange, purple, or use pretty leaves on my project.  by September 1st - I was already done! I was so excited to get to craft with their products and they are all fall products too! score!!!! I can only share 1 with you now.. I know, I know, the wait!.. torture! lol .. But be patient ! All good things come in good time my crafty friends!

This past Christmas I was given alcohol markers as a gift from my Mom! I was over the moon! since then I have practiced on and off.  I switch up my color mediums to not bore myself. lol For this card I used my fancy new markers! I printed out their digital images using the "other photo paper" selection on my printer so that the marker or pencils ( which ever you choose ) won't smear the printer ink.* tip* you can also resize them to suit your project needs as I did!

Then I colored away! I used various paper cutting dies, glitter brush pens, and sequins. Then  Viola! My cards were done and stunning! ( not to toot my own horn ) lol ... Jen's images are just so cute! I can't wait to see what she comes up with for Christmas. She makes it so easy and fun to create cards!

Frightful Fall Digi Images here! 

With lot's of new dies being released from different companies, I couldn't wait to get my hands on some! So while waiting I did what I do best and improvise! I made this DIY shadow box card myself!  No dies, just cutting random sizes seeing what worked for me lol.. ( I hate measuring ) Here is the result of a rainy afternoon experimenting :-) I used Paper Smooches stamps and Lawn fawn stamps! They are just the cutest!!
