Day of Challenges

I am playing in some challenges today - some are even new [to me].  It all started with The Challenge #39 with an inspiration photo.  I am also entering this into The Kraft Journal Challenge #228; masculine.

I used Inspired By Stamping Watercolor Sentiments, and an actual piece of chalk for the chalkboard effect. ;)  That striped background paper is a digital paper freebie from IBS.  [Just subscribe to the IBS newsletter - Joanna sends out a freebie every month, and they are only available for a short period of time, unless you download them that is]

I also went on play in the Muse Challenge #122, and entered this also into [new to me] The Paper Girls #82; Happy Birthday, and Stamp Ink Paper #1; favorites.

I used MFT Balloons [and dies], along with a sentiment from Simon Says Happy, and Small Folded Banner die.

SIP Any Challenge 1

Gosh, another fun day!  Thanks challenges~ 


Thanks for stopping by~
