Mix It Up Challenge Blog - Paper Piecing

Hi friends - I hope this note finds you doing well. How's your weather? Ours is cooling off a bit and I am LOVING IT! I'm a 75 degree girl all the time; thankfully, we get to experience all the seasons, but Spring and Fall are definitely my favorite!!

At Mix It Up Challenge, we're playing with paper piecing, but we always allow Anything Goes too! And that's what I did for this challenge...Mixed Media with all the Tim Holtz Sprays and some sparkle!

The stamp set and dies are from The Greetery, BotaniCuts Toadstool Garden and Bountiful Wreath (no longer available). I had these toadstools left over from another project and taking inspiration from Kelly Lunceford is how my card was made. 

The background is the Square Dance die, also from The Greetery; I cut it from Lawn Fawn's textured pink cardstock. I used Pawsitively Guava ink around the edges. 

All images were sprayed or dripped with a mix of Peppermint Stick, Frozen Fog,  Sparkle spray and white gouache. 

This was a really fun card to put together; it took forever to create - lol - but I love the final product!

Thanks for stopping by - I hope you are inspired to join us with either paper piecing OR anything goes; we enjoy seeing your creations!

Love to Scrap - Anything Goes

Hey -  great to see you, I'm glad you popped in!

At Love to Scrap, we're always about 'Anything Goes'; that means you never know what I'm going to share! 😁

And this month I'm sharing a 'hey, boo' card; I actually made 2 identical cards to send to a couple dear girlfriends! I love all the products from CZ Design over at Simon Says Stamp (Big Bat and Witch). This card uses the products from the Big Bat wafer die. I love these papers from Doodlebug Designs, so many cute designs!

I cut the die from vellum and did some stitching around the card, along with some ink blending of black soot Distress Ink.

Thanks for stopping by; I hope you find some inspiration to join us at Love to Scrap! We enjoy seeing your creations!
