MAKE IT MONDAY #265: LAYERED DRY BRUSHING

MIM 265 Thanks So Much Card

Create a project utilizing your take on the challenge. Your project must use at least one Papertrey product and layered dry brushing.

I have some old making  Memories paper paint. I think I bought it after watching Miss Ashley Cannon Newell make a card...YEARS ago,

So, that is what I used.


I didn't have a household paint brush handy, so I used my largest art brush.
I found it difficult to get as much paint off as Lizzie did.


I do like the results and it was pretty quick.
so, I made several panels.


I should get out all of the colors and make more panels.
Easier than stenciling...great texture.

I pulled a Diana K and made more than one card.
She is SUCH and overachiever!!!

Thank you for looking at my blog!

Melissa


Create a project utilizing your take on the challenge. Your project must use at least one Papertrey product and incorporate a background you created with stencils you made using die-cuts.

Finally had some time to make a card.
It has been BUSY around here, getting ready for my Mission sale on November 3


I used Inspired Jesus as my stencil and then used the inked die cut as an embellishment.


A rhinestone cross from my stash finished off the card.

I will post pictures this week of what I have made for my Holiday sale!

Thank you for looking at my blog!

MAKE IT MONDAY #263: BACKGROUND BUILDING WITH FRAMES

PTI-100416MIM-2

Create a project utilizing your take on the challenge. Your project must use at least one Papertrey product and die-cut frames to build a background.

I had these Gold and white ovals from inside the Cover Plate: Scroll Frame.
Being the scrap hoarder I am, I saved them and wanted to make a card from them...


Here is what I came up with.


I added a Life is Beautiful butterfly.
And a Big Basics: Love You die cut.


Easy Peasy!
