Polkadoodles - Week 4 - Monochrome

Another fun challenge over at Polkadoodles today. This week the challenge is Monochrome/Monochromatic.

I coloured the image in with Pro Markers. Added a bit of glitter with my Sakura pen. I used black and white cardstock, and layered it. I also added some black stick on pearls. The sentiment is stamped with my mini alphabet stamp set from Hampton Arts.


The flowers are from the same CD. I coloured these in with Pro Markers too.

Paper Pumpkin

Autumn is over up here in Scotland. We have snow!! So my last autumn creation is this paper pumpkin.


I used DP from Bo Bunny. This is so easy to make! 


The pumpkin is cut out from the paper and I used a circle punch from Stampin Up for the back ground. The sentiment is also from Stampin Up.


Found this tutorial on line. Check it out...

Only difference is my pumpkin topper and I cut out strips instead of leaves and spritzed some water on them and curled them around a pen.

Thanks for looking.
