The House That Stamps Built: Anything Goes

 It's week four at The House That Stamps Built, everyone's favorite:  Anything Goes:

 

 I went with a CAS card but oh is it not striking.  I like the technique of

ink blending inside a shaped stencil (bought or made at home) and then 

stamping your image over it. I stamped this  Repeat Impressions Great Blue Heron 

with black Versa Fine Clair ink and then embossed with clear ink.

The House That Stamps Built: Designer Choice Challenge

 It's the first week of September so it's time for a Designer Choice Challenge at 

The House That Stamps Built and it's my week to choose the challenge. 

 I choose use a recycled item on  your card/project.  

I choose to recycle part of a Kleenex box, they always have the 

cutest patterns and color combo's on them.   I paired it with  sentiments

from Repeat Impressions Hello Series. I did some ink distressing and die 

cutting with stitched dies and added a few pearls from my stash.

 

Just a hint, it is easier if your recycled item is empty before you

decide to create with it.  I'm still waiting for my husband to 

notice the back of the Kleenex box in our bathroom.

be the lucky winner of the monthly drawing for the

 $25 Repeat Impression's  gift certificate. you don't have to use

Repeat Impression stamps but an extra chance if you do.

Hello

 Hello!    Hope you are having a good day and staying safe.  I am just getting 

my crafty mojo back.  I have not been doing much card making other than my

Design Team, thank goodness for that!

I saw Mrs. A's Butterfly challenge with the curtain fold option and have

neglected her challenge so wanted to play along as I have only

made 1 curtain fold in the past.  I had forgotten how easy it was. I had

a snippet of patterned paper left so glued a butterfly to cardstock

ad used it on my card. I'm not sure of the manufacturer of

the Hello die.
