4 Crafty Chicks #404 Masculine Card

Thank you and welcome back we have another wonderful challenge that is starting today, over at 4 Crafty Chicks.

I hope you get a chance to play along and remember it is an Anything Goes challenge with a Twist. Todays host is Lori, and she would like us to make a Masculine Card, well I am all over that, as I don't ever have enough of these cards, for the young or mature males in my world. Thanks Lori. This card is for my great nephew, and I don't water coloring much, so on a small scale this is my take on it. I stamped the artist cat and embossed with clear embossing powder, and then used memento ink and my water brush and colored up my little friend. Popped him up with foam dots on top of my frame die I cut out of white card stock and pattern paper. I added a small Happy Birthday stamp and added a few pearls.

Thanks again for stopping and be sure to stop by the challenge blog.

As well here are the links to the chicks personal blogs.

Until next time Happy Crafting.

4 Crafty Chicks #402 Polished Stone Technique

Thank you and welcome back we have another wonderful challenge that is starting today, over at 4 Crafty Chicks.

I hope you get a chance to play along and remember it is an Anything Goes challenge with a Twist. Nance is our host this week and she asked us to creating using the "polished stone technique". I have to admit, I had to ask what this was, Lori said go search some ideas on Splitcoaststampers. So wow, there is a lot of cool ideas there. Thank you to many of them I watched or read. It was pretty fun once I started. I inked up my glossy card stock using three colors and cut out my heart die and popped one part up. Added some fun pearls, aren't they the best embellishment? I cut out some word dies, and stamped the sentiment in black ink. I thought Mom would like this so this is for her, as she is my best Mom! Thank you Nance for hosting todays challenge. Thanks again for stopping and be sure to stop by the challenge blog.
