I've been seeing a lot of these Eclipse Technique cards on social media, so I thought I would give it a try...I guess the only thing I did differently was not using a darker mat or base for the card...but I still like it!
This is how I made the Clean-and-Layered card:
1. Print the image and sentiment and watercolor them.
2. Trim out a panel and punch 3 hearts out at the bottom.
3. Adhere the panel on card base.
4. Adhere the punched hearts with foam tape.
5. (And I added a small heart gemstone on)

Hello, Kraftie Friends!!!
Do you like creating your own background?
Last week, I was playing with Yupo Paper + alcohol inks (click HERE to see the card)...and today, I have 2 more cards...
On the first one, besides Yupo Paper + alcohol inks, I also added some stamping:
I dropped some red, blue, white alcohol inks and blending solution on Yupo. Sometimes, I'll move the paper to spread the inks. After it dried, I die cut the panel, stamped some numbers (Club Scrap Delft Art Nouveau unmounted stamps) and let dry.
I stamped "Hello" (Club Scrap Delft Greeting unmounted stamps) on the card base and trimmed the Yupo panel to leave a gap for the "Hello" sentiment.
Then, I added some enamel dots.
Challenges:
1. Simon Says Wed: Bit O' Green
2. Word Art Wed #274-#275: AGoes
After the Yupo paper dried (yellow, blue, red and white alcohol inks + blending solution), I die cut a doily.
For my own background, I stamped "shoes" (Delft Greeting unmounted stamps) on light blue textured cardstock. Then, I stamped crackle texture (Delft Jumbo unmounted stamps).
I die cut a panel, added the doily, a white ribbon and stamped "celebrate" (Delft Greeting unmounted stamps).
Using 2 images from Delft Digital Kit, I fussy cut them and adhered them on with foam tape.
Finally, I added a wooden dot and doodled on it using the blue Gel Pen from Delft Gel Pen Set.

1. Club Scrap March Technique Challenge: Create Your Own Backgrounds

Hello, Kraftie Friends!
It's been crazy around here packing for the move...my baby going to kindergarten...I'm trying to craft as much as I can before I have to pack my craft supplies! =)
I made a few cards for a few challenges...
This first one uses a strip of shaving cream-marbled paper...this technique is messy, but fun!!!
Spray some shaving cream on a flat surface and drop some dye inks (I used yellow and blue). Use a stick to mix the colors (I did it in a zig zag motion, but you can try other patterns). Lay your paper on top, press it down a bit and remove it. I used a ruler to scrape off the excess shaving cream on the paper and let dry.
I added some Sunflowers Washi Tape (Club Scrap), a stenciled panel (Garden Shed Words Stencil/Club Scrap) and a stamped butterfly (Garden Shed Art Nouveau unmounted stamps/Club Scrap), colored with Copic markers. Panels were die cut, using Stitched Rectangles dies (The Stamps of Life). I also added some Dimensional Magic Glitter Gold on the wings.
Challenges:
1. Mojo Monday #464 Contest
2. CAS Mix Up Sep Challenge: Stamping + Marbling + Stenciling
Panel was die cut using Stitched Rectangles (The Stamps of Life) and printed paper from Club Scrap. I added the ribbon, bow and a digital stamp (Garden Shed Digital Kit), cut out, colored with Copic markers and adhered with foam tape. I added a stenciled word (Garden Shed Words Stencil/Club Scrap) and some sequins.
Challenges:
1. Cupcake Inspirations #374
2. Double D: Down on the Farm
3. The Sisterhood of Crafters: Pretty Pretty Ribbons
4. Word Art Wed #246- #247: AGoes
I cut the circles with my ScanNCut, stamped them and blended some color. I added a stamped Wood Plant Stake and ribbon. I stamped the watering can, cut it out, colored it with Copic marker and adhered it with foam tape.
Stamps used are Garden Shed Art Nouveau, Jumbo and Greeting unmounted stamps.
Challenges:
1. Sketch N Scrap Card Sketch #81

Hello, Kraftie Friends!
The colors are inspired by Altenew's August Inspiration Challenge and the design was inspired by Happy Little Stamper's August CASE the Designer (Gloria Lee) Challenge...
I had a scallop circle die cut laying around, so I used washi tape to tape it on the die cut white panel (Stitched Rectangles/The Stamps of Life).
I used stamps from Altenew WILD HIBISCUS to create the collage with Simon Says Stamp COBBLESTONE dye ink. With the die cut still on, I blended Tsukineko Memento ANGEL PINK around it, using Ranger MINI ROUND INK BLENDING TOOL.
I also outlined the flowers with alcohol-based marker.
After I remove the die cut, I stamped sentiment (Altenew WINTER CARDINAL) with Memento ROSE BUD.
Then, I adhered on pink card base and added some sequins.
It's been a while since I entered any cards in Altenew's Challenges...it's time I change that!

Hello, Kraftie Friends!
My kids and I are starting on Valentine's Craft Projects (or more like...find a craft project to entertain my kids...), so I thought I would make origami hearts with them!
We used 12x12 scrapbook papers and they are great as wall decoration!
This is where I found a photo tutorial, 'cause I couldn't remember how to do it - Easy Origami Heart.
Then, I decided to make a card for a few challenges:
I used Quad Prints (Club Scrap) for the hearts (just the right weight - not too thin nor thick)...I trimmed 3 squares: 1.75", 2.5" and 3".
I place a strip of washi tape on the black card base and hand-drew stitches with a black pen. After folding the hearts, I placed them on the washi tape.
I stamped and heat embossed "love" (Club Scrap - Celebrate Jumbo stamp set) in silver on black cardstock, cut it out and adhered on card.
Finally, I added some sequins for some shine!
Challenges:
3. Club Scrap Jan Technique Challenge: use origami folded elements (Prize: $10 Club Scrap Gift Certificate)
Hello, Crafty Friends!
I made some cards using the "ink smooshing" technique for a Bokeh technique challenge last week (click HERE to see one of them).
I had some "leftover" panels and made Christmas cards:
Stamp set is Hero Arts and I also used gel pens in silver and gold, plus glitter glue.
*****************************************************************
And here's a third card using green and pink All-Purpose Inks:
Stamps are Penny Black. I added sequins, glitter glue, metallic embroidery floss and a die cut snowflake (ScanNCut) coated with glitter.

Hello, Crafty Friends!!!

Here's the paper...
After it dried, I trimmed a panel to size. Using a Honeycomb stencil, Brilliance ink pad and Tim Holtz's round Blender Tool, I inked the paper.
Then, just with the blender, I inked the paper to get some "circles"...
Finally, I just added an image and sentiment from the Navigation Collection stamp set. I added a mat and adhere to the card:
