Challenge #679 at TSOT involves the use of a sketch with “Oodles of Doodles” anywhere in the project.
My doodle picture had a definite Halloween theme. I doodled with stamps, inks , and line drawings to create an image where the characters associated with Halloween try to destroy it.
“A doodle is a drawing made while a person's attention is otherwise occupied. Doodles are simple drawings that can have concrete representational meaning or may just be composed of random and abstract lines or shapes, generally without ever lifting the drawing device from the paper, in which case it is usually called a scribble.”
Here is my card:
I started by grabbing my brushes to use Balmy Blue, Misty Moonlight, Starry Sky and Night of Navy to create a dark sky . A 1 1/4" circle masked out a yellow moon. Stars were added using a white metallic pen.
The three shapes became my image -the word "BOO". These die cut letters were left over from a previous project.
I also pulled out 5 small Penny Black wood mount stamps and using Black Versafine ink stamped the images connecting them to the BOO word.
A sentiment - Beware - was added as a warning to the doodling going on above it.
Supplies Used:
Stamps: Penny Black wood mount (Witch, Ghost, Bat large, Bat small, Cobweb), Sentiment "The Grim Reaper" Creative Expressions.
Inks: Balmy Blue, Misty Moonlight. Starry Sky, Night of Navy ,Daffodil Delight, Black Versafine
Papers: Basic Black, Basic White
Accessories: Alphabet dies, 1 1/4" circle punch, white metallic pen
This card was also shared with the Double Trouble Challenge #200
