ATSM #91 - Anything Goes

Hi everyone, I hope you are having a good week so far!

The theme this week at Addicted to Stamps and More is Anything Goes and our fabulous sponsor for the challenge is A Random Fan.

For my DT card, I've used a stencil on the background piece by inking with two colours of distress ink, place the stencil over the top and finely mist with water, lift the stencil and roll a roll of kitchen towel gently over the image. Finally, dry with heat tool. The flower and leaves were stamped with black Archival and coloured with DIs and aqua brush. The diecut "happy" is purple but looks almost black in the photo.

Don't forget to check out the fabulous DT inspiration over at the ATSM blog and we look forward to seeing your beautiful creations.

Hello everybody, I hope you're having a good day!

I'd like to show you a card I made for a few challenges. Actually I'm not quite sure about it because it's yet another case of the infamous white embossing powder which looks ahem, cream. This is the one by Cosmic Shimmer which is described on the tub as "True White". Oh well ... I will let you decide. After heat embossing the images were coloured using an aqua brush and distress inks.

Hi everyone, I hope you're well and having a good day.

I'd like to show you a card made today using the Floral Frame die set by Memory Box. The floral frame, tag and five flowers were cut from white card. I scribbled 3 different SU! markers onto an acrylic block and used a little sponge to apply colour to the flowers. The sentiment tag is a bit small but I was able to find a little birthday sentiment stamp that fits and a touch of white Liquid Pearls was added to the flower centres.

ATSM #87 - Make Your Mark

Hi everyone, and a big hello to new member, Natalie. I hope you're all well and have been enjoying the fine weather!

It's time to start a new challenge at Addicted to Stamps and More and this week it's Make Your Mark - use pens, colour pencils, markers, paints and chalks on your project.

Our fabulous sponsor is STAMPlorations and we are very pleased to have as our guest designer the very creative and talented Anni. 

For my DT card, I've used SU! markers in three different ways.

1. For the background, scribbled on an acrylic block, sprayed with water, stamped onto the card and blended a bit with an aqua brush.
2. Scribbled the pens onto a craft mat and picked up colour with aqua brush.
3. Coloured directly onto the diecuts and softened with aqua brush.

Don't forget to check out the inspiration at the ATSM challenge blog and we look forward to seeing your beautiful creations!
