You go, Gull!

Wednesday July 28, 2021

Hello

I had this card in mind so while it's was there I decided to make this card. It was so easy. I cut a circle out of some type paper and then using my cloud template and Ranger inks I created the clouds and water. I had this seagull already painted from a few summers ago from My favorite things and done with Mission Gold watercolors. So I added it to the card on foam dots and stamped the MFT sentiment with Quick Quote chalk ink.. I am loving how it came out.

Hello

It's time for a new challenge over at

Cardz 4 Guyz #276

Our theme this challenge is

SHADES OF BLUE

So digging through my stamps I was trying to decide what to create. I saw this Simon Says background stamp and usually I paint inside so thought I would just use 3 shades of blue and ink it up. I stamped and I didn't really quite see the three shades ... but it was blue so stuck with it. I used scraps from Quick quote and My favorite things smile die and stacked three layers and added to the card along with heat embossed sentiment. I finished with some blue sequins and Nuvo drops in the center..

Hello

I don't know what's going on at AFC..

the postings have been far and few..

I noticed today's posting is not up.

Today we have a new challenge over at

Always Fun Challenge #224

Our theme is

ANYTHING GOES

I have quite a few stencils and still struggle using them. I wasn't sure what I wanted to do for this card. I decided to look for stamps first. Saw this one from Club Scrap that I haven't used for a long long time.. So I stamped it on some rust card stock. I used My favorite things stitch die. I then thought the next to figure out a color and stencil. So I know blue is the complement color to the rust color so I chose this Ranger ink. I found a nice Newton's nook stencil and created the background. I then found a sentiment that was a sticker.. I added a little Spectrum Noir sparkle brush to the image in different areas.
