Hola Friends!
I am stopping by to share my project for the new challenge at Scrapping 4 Fun Challenges. The challenge is to use at least 3 colors from this color scheme:
I created a home décor piece. Let's begin with some detail pictures:
I distressed 2 flowers with a Tim Holtz marker in "Crushed Olive" and added glitter to the third one. I stamped the leaves onto vellum, cut them, and added glossy accents.
I paper-pieced the bottom part of the dress & colored everything else with colored pencils and a marker. I added glossy accents to the bow.
Sorry about the lighting. The light source was behind the décor.
(Supplies: canvas; cardstock; pattern paper- my stash; stamps- Unity Stamp Co.; glossy accents; flowers- Recollections; distress marker- Tim Holtz; glitter- Martha Stewart; pearls & gem stone- Bo Bunny; ribbon; vellum; black ink)
So what comes to mind when you see the color challenge? Go have some crafty fun and then link up here!
I would like add this to the current Unity Be Inspired Challenge, please. I loosely used the card sketch, as well as the Friends with Flair challenge. :)
Thank you for stopping by!! I ALWAYS appreciate your visit. :D
Happy Crafting,
Angie
Hello Again!
I am popping in again today to share my design team project for Scrapping 4 Fun Challenges. The new challenge is to create a technique project (i.e. masking, tearing, inking, embossing, watercolor, weaving, folding, etc.)
I have been really inspired by my teammate, Sarah, to create an art canvas. Needless to say, I need LOTS of practice, but here is my first ever art canvas:
I cut the flowers with my Cameo and then pieced them together. I added a bit of glitter glue to the middle.
The techniques I used are tearing, die-cutting, paper-piecing, & embossing.
(Supplies: blank canvas, pattern paper, cardstock, Mod Podge, embossing paste, stencils- The Crafter's Workshop & Prima, butterfly punch- Martha Stewart, glitter glue- Martha Stewart, blue acrylic paint, phrase die-cut -Silhouette Cameo)
This phrase- "Be Yourself. Everyone Else is Taken," really resonated with me and it reminded me of my high school days. Let me tell you why. In high school (eons ago!), my best friend, who is also my cousin, was a very popular girl. And it was easy to see why. She was outgoing, cheerful, funny and friendly. I was quiet, shy, and although friendly, not very talkative.
So one day I decided I wanted to be like her, so I can be popular, too. :-) So I began being bouncy and chatty and hyper. But guess what? It was EXHAUSTING to be her!!! Needless to say, I gave it up after one day and decided I was just going to be ME. :)
Well, dear friends, what technique are you going to try? Go have some crafty fun and then share with us here. Thanks again for sharing some of your time with me. :D
Happy Crafting,
Angie
