MAKE IT MONDAY #278

WINDOW CHIPBOARD SENTIMENTS

Stephanie's first Make It Monday video was a really neat idea. I was also inspired by Yana's first video and her lovely colors! There is inspiration springing up all over! 

The Challenge:

Create a project with a window chipboard sentiment.

I first die cut a Big Basics Thanks window. Then I grabbed Beautiful Brushstrokes set and stamped flowers using yellow, pink, and grey PTI inks. Last I added my chipboard 'thanks' 

I want to go create more...but I must go chain myself to the kitchen stove and make dinner instead =)

Have a wonderful weekend

Thanks for stopping by.

Mommy was excited for a little craft time.

Hope you have a wonderful day after Christmas!

Double Partial Die Cutting

What a smart technique at PTI this week! I grabbed 'Desktop Design' and had fun trying it out:

a glossy red typewriter in a pretty window

a glossy green typewriter. I really like this card, then it fell on to an open ink pad...ahhhha! I'm not the only who does this right? I went back later and inked it all up so it looked like I meant to do it =)

a sparkly red typewriter on ledger paper in a square window.

Then one card not using the technique but I couldn't stop with this sweet typewriter! I used washi tape to make some sweet pattern typewriters and then paper piece then in to a card.

Have a blessed day and a wonderful EASTER!

He has Risen!

(Goal: next year I'll be on top of making Easter cards right!?)

Watercolor Smooshing

I so had to try this fun technique! It went pretty good but I wish I had some more time to practice it =) If I had more time I would try to get smaller areas of smoothing. I had large areas so I stamped with 'Fancy That' to get a background look and added some bling for fun:

Have a blessed day!

I wanted to get a few of these cards into the Monday stencil challenge...but missed the deadline. So since 'Anything Goes' this Wednesday here we go:

Paper Weaving

Because we are on a homeschool brake and just waiting for baby I think this was my first time making a 'Make it Monday' on a Monday =) But didn't get to post yesterday.

I had seen paper waving but haven't tried it yet. Thanks to Ashley's video it was time to try it. Make it  Mondays are so fun because they challenge and put a deadline on things I want to try - therefore I actually try them! =)

Fall seems to be on most of our minds =) I wove one orange piece and got two cards out of it!

'Simply Framed' this weave up at a diagonal then embellished and stamped it to be a fall birthday card.

Kept this one simple by adding 'thanks' and twin then letting the weave be the focus.

What a fun technique and a great way to use my scraps that I save too many of! Have a wonderful day.

Make it Monday #179 - take two

Emboss Resist Using Diecuts

I had time to make a card with my background from yesterday that was clear embossed and color added by blending ink - my first time blending ink!

It turned out to be a nice soft background! Vellum feathers, stitching, sequins, sentiment and a banner finish it off for today! I better go make myself lay down now.

Have a lovely afternoon!
