this must be my guest designer week, lol! so i'm happy to be a guest designer at
crafting by design for their latest challenge which is "childhood memories." the challenge sponsor is
lunagirl moonbeams and the challenge winner will get some shopping credit at the lunagirl store. you are challenged to evoke childhood memories in your creation for this challenge. i made a valentine ATC using the lunagirl "retro children" collage sheet.
i used some pretty background designer paper and punched a heart out of some additional designer paper. i placed my fussy cut girl with puppies and valentine then added some white picket fence and an additional heart.
do you have happy memories of sharing valentines as a child? I still love to share them and make gobs of them every year. hooray, now i have one valentine ready to go for next year!
join the challenge at crafting by design for a great chance at a lunagirl prize!
in other news have you been wondering whether i am still playing along with
claudine's altered card deck challenge? each week claudine gives a tutorial to walk you through making two cards. we are on week 2. during week 1 i was unable to play due to some work travel and therefore no art play time. i was finally able to do the backgrounds for 4 cards, for weeks 1 and 2.
so here are my 4 backgrounds. the top 2 are spray inks, the bottom left is done with alcohol inks and the 4th is distress inks. if all goes well i will get caught up this weekend to finish the 1st 4 cards. and then be ready for cards 5 and 6 which she will give a tutorial for next monday. sometime next week i should be sharing the 1st 4 finished cards!
love to all.
