Mojo Monday Sketch - Vinatge Santa


 
      
I now have 8 days off from my regular job, which will allow me to catch up on many other things that are lacking.  Crafting, however, will be my main priority, of course.

This is my entry for this weeks  Mojo Monday Challenge .  I used Stampin' Up! Crumb Cake, Bravo Burdundy & Elegant Eggplant cardstock.  The designer paper was bought from Ebay, which is KaiserCraft Dear Santa Collection - Train Set.  My local craft store once carried it but discontinued too, so I searched high and low to find it.  The stamp is from Crafty Secrets I believe.  They have some gorgeous stamp sets.  I then finished this card off with some stitching, rustic twine and Red Pearls.

I'm now heading off to the dentist with my youngest daugter.  She had an abscessed baby tooth last week which was extracted.  Today the spacer will be placed to allow the adult to tooth to drop.

Until Next time.

Today's card is inspired by two challenges, Create with Connie & Mary & Hand Stamped Sentiments .  I began on a piece of 3 x 6 Pool Party cardstock.  I really love this tone of blue.  The first layer is Pink Pirouette that has been run through my big shot, using the polka dot embossing folder.  I cut a banner using a piece of Regal Rose patterned paper then stamped it.  I also used some pretty designer paper, cut it into a banner, then added two clear rhinestones.  The center banner was stamped on Whisper White using Basic Grey ink.  I finished this card off with some gorgeous ruffled Pool Party ribbon (gotta get more of this, its amazing), a punched flower with a Rose colored button. Thank you for stopping by!  Alyson

Two Challenges and an Art Journal Page

Today's project post was made using the Mixed Media Monthly challenge ~ Spray Inks and Mists ~ along with this week's Colour Me challenge. These were the sprays I used to create the background on my canvas paper.   I just sprayed and swirled with my fingers until I was happy. Next, I did some stenciling and stamping in various spots. Once I was happy with that I used molding paste to create the heart and circles.  These were coloured in with the same sprays.  When I was happy with that I did some doodling and shading.  Finally, I added some brown spray around the edges, stamped the sentiment and added some rub-ons. Thank you for stopping by!  Please feel free to leave a comment :)

This is a set that we will be making at my 'It's Time for Spring' card class.  I chose two challenges for my creation.  The color combo from CR84FN Color Challenge and the sketch from Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge . I began my creation on some Whisper White cardstock, then stamped these butterflies using my markers in Only Orange, Pretty in Pink and Bashful Blue.  You can hardly see in the photo, but I scorded 10 lines at the bottom and added some glitter. Here are the challenges: Please stop by again soon. Alyson
