CCAYR - March - Flowers

Hello there!  It's time for the mid-month reminder post over on the Christmas Crafts All Year Round blog.  Our theme this month is Flowers.  See the blog post on the CCAYR blog for the wonderful prize you could win for playing along this month.

I used some new dies to create this card.  The flowers were cut out in multiple sizes and then folded and layered.  The folding along the veins in the leaves made the flower come to life.  Love how they turned out.

MIU#11 - March -Make Your Own Background

Hello there!  It's a brand new month and it's time for a new challenge over on the Mix It Up blog.  This month our theme is Make Your Own Background.  

I used a stencil and some distress inks to create this background using the reverse stencil technique.  So fun!  I was going for a speckled Easter egg feel.  And I think it came out pretty good.  I'm sure I'll be using this technique again soon.

colored pencils
Tim Holtz - Oxide ink - Wilted Violet, Distress Ink - tumbled glass, picked raspberry, Speckles stencil
