Peace On Earth

 

Greetings! It is time, once again, for a new challenge over at Fashionable Stamping Challenge. Our challenge theme:  Nature.

I hope you will stop on over to FSC to see what the rest of the Design Team have dreamed up to inspire you and then create a project of your own to share with FSC. Remember one lucky participant will be selected to win a free stamp courtesy of our gracious sponsor Ink Art Designs. As always, we are a stamp challenge, so please remember your project must use stamping as a focal point.

 

For my own piece, I watercolored the top of a panel with water colors and used acrylic paint on the bottom. The stamp images are by Tim Holtz for Stampendous. Thanks so much for stopping by. Best, Yvonne



Serendipity

 

Greetings! Time once again for another challenge over at Eclectic Ellapu! The Pink Team selected "Florals" for their theme. I hope you will stop over and check out all the beautiful projects and be inspired to create one of your own to share with us.

 

Mine began with a water color panel. I laid a Stencil Girl Stencil on the panel and sprayed Sunshine Yellow and Pink Bubblegum Dylusions Ink Sprays through the stencil.  I picked up the stencil, turned it over and smooshed it around the rest of the panel to use up the excess in and fill in the panel.  The image and sentiment from Tim Holtz for Stampendous were stamped on scrap card, trimmed and water colored and added to the panel. The panel was matted and added to a card base. Thanks so much for stopping by.  Your visits and comments make my days! Best, Yvonne

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

Greetings! It is time for another challenge at 365 Cards.  Today it is Word Wednesday and the challenge word is "Shining."  For my own interpretation, I chose to create a card around the poem "Twinkle, Twinkle."  Spun Sugar and Broken China Distress Paints were spritzed with water and white card was dragged through to get this dreamy sky backdrop.  The focal image by PSX was stamped over top of the backdrop with Black StazOn Ink.  The sentiment by Stampendous was stamped, cut into pieces and added to the card front.  A snippet of lace and some buttons and seam binding tinted with more Distress Paint complete my card.  I normally would have added a solid length of seam binding, but think matching the mottled seam binding to the backdrop provides for a very dreamy look.  I hope you are having a great day!  Best wishes, Yvonne

Rhyme Time

For day 63 of 365 Cards, the theme is Rhyme Time. The challenge is to include a sentiment that rhymes. It could be a stamp, rub-on, sticker, etc. I chose a stamp by Stampendous for the sentiment. Once I chose my sentiment, my selection for the main image was simple. It is a beautiful image by Magenta that I purchased years ago for my granddaughter's birth announcements. I added Glitter Glue to the sentiment, some pompom trim and my favorite, white seam binding with a pin saftety pin. Everything is assembled on a very soft pink card. Thanks for stopping by. Yvonne
