STAMPlorations March Challenge Reminder

For my reminder post today for the STAMPlorations March Challenge, I am using a new addition to the already stunning Artistic Crafters Collage Papers. Wow! I am in love with this new set; Botanical Beats.

I used the Thanks Word Die.  Seriously that's all it needed1

Talk about whipping out a card in speedy time!  Let the paper talk 😉

Shery offers an amazing monthly package deal - you can see that HERE.  Meanwhile, we hope you pop on over to the STAMPlorations March Challenge and play along.  It's Anything Goes, and nope, you do not have to use STAMP products.

March ATC Instagram Hop

Every time this challenge comes up, I am smiling.  I have so much fun making these smaller works of art!

I kinda used "Easter colors" to get out of my standard blue/green combo, and, all of these flower images, leaves, and even the sentiments, were in my stash of to-be-used stuff!  Major win for making these fun ATC's.

I am totally happy with these!

You can pop on over to Instagram ATC Hop HERE to see more fun tiny art.

STAMPlorations Day

I have found that I've been having so much fun creating with STAMPlorations Papers - specifically, Botanical Beats, that I need to showcase them here on my blog!  Aren't these papers just stunning?!

They also make fast, easy, and of course, beautiful cards!  I simply added the Thankful Word Die, along with some artistic edging, and this card is done!

For this 2nd card, I made like a faux shadow box.  I used the Botanical Beats paper as a base, and turned it into a mixed media panel using the Happy Flower Stencil with some acrylic paint, a couple of self made stamped tissue paper swatches, and lastly, the Perched Bird Die, and a Word Die sentiment.

Adding some artsy framing just finishes off this fun card.

Have you checked out the STAMPlorations store?  Shery's pricing is so right-on-low with today's economy - I can get behind that! 😀

CutCardStock Day

I debated using this card today as to be honest, I only used Classic Crest Bright White Card Stock with a touch of Astrobright Black.

But you wouldn't know right?  I used the inking up an embossing folder technique.  I really think this is a beautiful effect.

Using the same white card stock, I foiled a sentiment.  

I have to say, I am rather thrilled with this card.

See you next week~
