Hello, Kraftie Friends!!!
I saw this challenge at CAS Mix Up July Stencil Challenge...
...and thought it was interesting going back to some early techniques that we used to try on our paper crafting journey! Haven't done this in a loong time (click HERE to see my Mixed-Media Art Journal Spread)...usually I spray or blend inks, so it was fun making some cards with this technique:
I made a quick video showing how I made my cards using some die-cut left over "stencils":
I pre-printed some Club Scrap Fly a Kite digital papers and my Stamprints digital stamps (available on Etsy) on cardstock and trimmed into panels to go on my card bases. Then, added more designs with the stencil tracing technique and embellished with Jane Davenport's Glitter markers.
Challenges:
Card #1
1. A Place to Start July - Flowers
2. Use Your Stuff #401: Summer Fun
3. Simon Says Mon: At The Beach
4. Sunday Stamps SSC235: Bright and Beautiful
Card #2
1. CAS Mix Up July Stencil Challenge
2. Crafting Happiness #58: AGoes
Card #3
1. Simon Says Wed: For a Child
2. WordArtWed #448-#449: AGoes

Hello, Kraftie Friends!
I've been cleaning up and re-organizing some stuff and got to some boxes...with scraps from other projects...so here's what I made for a couple of challenges...an easy mixed-media scrapbook page:
I've been cleaning up and re-organizing some stuff and got to some boxes...with scraps from other projects...so here's what I made for a couple of challenges...an easy mixed-media scrapbook page:
In my box #1, I found some patterned papers and left over papers that were created using spray and stencil and a flower monoprint. I cut them out and arranged them on my scrapbook page.
I added additional papers + stamping (CTMH stamps - You Make Me Happy, Snuggle Up and a consultant set).
I choose the color blue for my monochromatic theme from More Than Words July Challenge and even though I didn't really add the word "goodbye" on the page, it represents my puppies that went to new homes about a year ago, so I had to say "goodbye" to them at that time.
I also made a Process Video, so hope you enjoy it! And I would love for you to subscribe to my YouTube Channel! (sorry about the "white noise"...my fan was really loud!!!)

Hello, Kraftie Friends!!!
I saw a couple of challenges requiring a Fancy-Fold Card and thought I would play...usually I stick to the regular 4.25" x 5.5" cards, but sometimes is fun to try different techniques!
I was inspired by Allisa's Flamingo card (The Paper Players) and decided to figure it out on my own, before I went to the tutorial link she gave us...so, here's my take:
Challenges:
1. The Paper Players PP498: Theme
2. Inspire.Create.Challenge #073: Theme
3. WordArtWed #446-#447: AGoes

You could add photos to some of the panels and turn it into a photo card to send to family. Or you could change the dimensions and add this to a scrapbook page!

Hello, Kraftie Friends!!!
I saw this sketch challenge at Just Add Ink #512 Sketch...
...and had some weird shaped papers (from another project) on my table...so, decided to make this quick card:
I used CTMH D1920 You Make Me Happy stamp set and Jane Davenport's Glitz Sea Sparkle Markers to color the leaves and flowers.
If you purchase the stamp set, CTMH will donate $7 to Operation Smile, a non-profit organization that provides surgeries to repair cleft lips and palates in children around the world.
