Featured Design Team Series: Color Sticker Owl by Alison Heikkila

Color in Sticker Owl


Hello! This is Alison and I am so pleased to share my second project as a White Rose Crafts Design Team Member. This week, we are focusing on "Leaves and Harvest of Color," plus the October Add-Ons to the October Kit. October (and Autumn) is my favorite time of year, so this theme made me very happy. Also, White Rose Crafts has a Sketch Challenge going on right now, so I opted to use that for my card layout. You can check out the sketch at the bottom of my post.

For this card, I decided to work with the Papermania Glitter Color in Stickers- Owl. I colored my owl with PITT pencils from Faber Castell. What I really love about these stickers is that they are just that...stickers! No need for adding adhesive, no cutting. They are perfect for coloring on the go, and then you can apply them to your projects easily.

I used some oval dies that I had in my stash as a mat for the owl (and because it goes with the sketch) and then I worked on my background. The focus is definitely the Gold Shimmer Paper from Craft Creations. The iridescence is stunning! You'll be able to see the wide range of colors that is has on each of my pictures. I also added a few sequins from the Love Potion Sparkle Blend.

Look at the colors and shine on that Gold Shimmer Paper! I love it! And it tears really nicely as you can see. Lastly, I added a simple "Thanks" from Lawn Fawn and heat embossed it with white powder. This card would work with many sentiments. Now, let's compare my card to the sketch, shall we?
