Thanks

Hi all - Playing in the Flower Challenge today and they have a sketch challenge up on their blog. Here is what I did with it.

I used Washi tape from Altenew to cover the panels that are called out in the sketch. This washi tape is wide enough to cover an A2 card and was a little hard to work with at first. But once you get the hang of how to handle it, it's awesome. Die cut several dragonfly and the Thanks, stacked and glued them all together so that they would stand out. The butterfly is chipboard cutout that I sponged black soot distress ink on. Added then onto the panels per the sketch and called it done.

Thanks for stopping by!

Mojo #331 - Everything I do

Hi everyone! I was able to play along with this weeks Mojo Monday sketch and even got a little creative with it too! Clearly a departure from my normal clean and simple cards!

Where do I begin to name all the different designer paper I used on this one? and does anyone really care? Sentiment is from Verve.

The two big hearts are chipboard that I covered using dp and then sanded and distressed.

I almost didn't put the vellum behind the sentiment. I was on a search and destroy mission for more dp to go here and couldn't find anything I liked. Did you know that Copic markers do a fabulous job coloring vellum? I started off using some distress dye ink and wasn't happy with it and grabbed my lipstick red and fell in love with how it turned out. I spritzed it with rubbing  alcohol to add a bit of texture which you can't even see now! Oh well, it was fun to play around with!

ETA: entered into Simon says have a heart challenge too!

Thanks for stopping in! Stay warm and safe out there!
