Challenge #23

A New challenge is up on the SumMoreFun blog today.

Here is our Mood Board

I decided to do something different for this challenge inspiration project.
 A Journal page
Using Raisin Boat's Spring is in the air Stamp set

Im so ready for Spring and the weather that comes with it. Blooming flowers, bon fires and most of all the exploring trips we take.

I started out using gesso on my page and added a few pieces of tissue paper in with it.
I then painted some green using Liquitex paint.
I added some other colors as well, turquoise and black.
I have the pieces I made to add an impressions like a background stamp.
So using black ink, I used them here and there.
I also stamped using the grass stamp on the bottom and one side in green ink, then added a little more paint until I was happy with it.
I then stamped using the flower and circle stamps from the set.
I added "enjoy the journey" using the Kirarina WINK gold pen that SumMoreFun carries in their store.

At the end, I added the stencil using whipped spackle.
I hope I was able to inspire you to make something if you own and join in our challenge.
Remember you can use anything from the mood board to inspire you.
Something from a picture or a color, even if your making St. Patricks day crafts, they would be perfect for this challenge.

Enjoy life

Enjoy Life

Good morning crafty friends.  Im up on the SumMoreFun blog today for my Monday post. 

Life has sure become busy.  Seems like we are being pulled in one direction and then the other. 

Do you get the chance to remind yourself to

Just enjoy life?

I think we all need to do this in our lives. 

Just stop and enjoy what is going on around us. 

This is what inspired my small canvas I made for today. 

I just need to remind myself to be still, smell the flowers, enjoy nature, the quiet, the birds chirping. 

I painted my canvas in black, then stamped the large stemmed daisy by Victorine Originals in red paint. 

I added some texture using a stencil.

Almost to look like a path.

Added some distressed papers and stamped this cute bicycle from the Bicycle set w/ Penny Farthing. 

I also stamped the daisy on different papers and fussy cut them out. 

You can find the product list on my blog at thetigershaven.blogspot.com

My project also goes with the current Mood Board Challenge we have going on.

Canvas

Hey crafty friends, 

Im up on the SumMoreFun blog today to share a Valentine canvas with you.

I used Victorine Originals I love you heart and Be Mine, Valentine stamps.

I started out with a flat canvas, added texture using gesso.

After that dried, I painted the canvas using alot of color. 

With our recent challenge, it challenged me to add red to my projects, which is something I don't normally do. 

I do like the look of red bleeding thru the canvas in areas. 

I then colored my cardboard peice and stamped it. 

Looking thru my stash, I was able to find many valentine related pieces to add. 

After finding the right spot for everything, I glued everything down to the canvas.

I stamped the Be Mine portion of the stamp to add additional wording.
Product list at end of post.

Remember we have a challenge going on right now. 

Create a new project and link it up for your chance to WIN!!!
