Hello, Crafty Friends!
It's time for a new challenge at The Card Concept - {Festive Glory}!
Come and join us and try your hand at a brand new "style" of card making or work in your comfort zone, it is totally up to you!

The styles are explained HERE.
Here's my mixed media card...I was inspired by the colors and poinsettia plants:
I used pocket scrapbooking cards for my background. I added washi tape and gold dots (dimensional fabric paint). I stamped collage using 2 different inks, tore and inked the edges.
I stamped poinsettia image (Inkadinkado), colored with paint (All-Purpose Ink from Imagine Crafts) and Copic markers and added gold dimensional paint in the center.
I decided to add more stamping (small snowflakes: Frosty Friends - Rubber Dance Art Stamps) and more gold dots.

Hello, Crafty Friends!
Club Scrap has a monthly Technique Challenge...and this month is about Watercoloring!
Check Club Scrap's Blog for a video and photo tutorial! Link your projects there for a chance to win a prize!
If you watch the video or read the tutorial, they use grey ink to stamp the images and watercolor pencils + brush to color...since I haven't unpacked all my supplies yet, I have no idea where my watercolor pencils are! =)
But I have these ArtBars by Derwent that work just like the pencils...so here's what I did:
1. I stamped the medallion from Moroccan Spice Borders & Backgrounds stamp set on white cardstock and matted with a brown cardstock. I used a wet brush to pick up color from the ArtBar and watercolored the images using different colors:
The card was inspired by RetroSketches #189...
I used my washi tapes for the background, stamped the star (Homemade Holiday stamp set) and watercolored it, cut it out and adhered with foam tape.
I added the ribbon, sentiment (with foam tape) and glittery dots (dimensional fabric paint).

This is my project...an explosion box for a friend, who got married recently:
I used foiled and regular patterned paper for the cuts...I used Mini Books and CTMH Artiste Cricut cartridges.
I made some alterations to the cake box in the center, though...I made it shorter by trimming the sides down:
Here's are the pages for photos:
I printed a Bible verse for the top flap and a label for the bottom one - with their names and the wedding date:
I added some embellishments (dimensional stickers) and decorated the "cake" and the lid with flowers and/or dimensional sticker.

Have a nice week and thanks for stopping by!
