WW: Sparkle & Oddball Reminder: Die Cuts

Hello!  Today is a HOT one - one more day of work after today, and then I have a 4-day weekend. So looking forward to it!  For now, I have 2 projects to share with you.  First up, we have a new challenge for you at:

Wicked Wednesday ATC Challenge:  Make it Sparkle


I'd like to enter this into the following challenges:


For my little ATC, I printed out this gorgeous image from Polkadoodles and cut around her a bit smaller than the ATC size.  I colored her with Prismacolor pencils & mineral spirits and used lots of Stickles.  I mounted this onto an ATC that I had covered in DP, then added the word "sparkle" with my Dymo Caption Maker and finished it off with the little gemstone stickers.

Next is my creation for the reminder post at:

The Corrosive Challenge: To Die For

Good morning!  Today I'm excited to announce that I've joined the Design Team at The Corrosive Challenge!  We have a new challenge for you today, the theme is To Die For (use die cuts):


Our sponsor is Oddball Art and I created a mixed media painting on an 11x14 canvas with Richelle #216.  I had a lot of fun with this, I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut out the die cut shapes including the filmstrip, skull, crown, and butterflies.  I used white paint for the background, textured and spritzed & sprayed with some mists.  I also added drops of alcohol inks.  I added a tag, a fuzzy peace sign sticker, and a clay heart to the crown. I'd like to enter this into the following challenges:


Thanks so much for stopping by!  Enjoy the rest of your weekend!  Peace.
