MAKE IT MONDAY #294: MONOCHROME COLOR POP

Create a project utilizing your take on the challenge. Your project must use at least one Papertrey product and monochrome with a color pop.

Fun technique...

I LOVE this Mix and Mat: Pretty Brackets. It is so easy to cut it out and gives a lot of color and dimension.

I used Pinfeather ink to stencil my background with the Woodgrain Stencil.

All 3 pieces of the Mix and Mat were used with pinfeather card stock.

My color pop was White! It worked for me.

I am hoping this will be a masculine birthday card.

Brandon's birthday is the 18th.

MAKE IT MONDAY #293: COLOR SLIDER CARDS

-Create a project utilizing your take on the challenge. Your project must use at least one Papertrey product and a color slider card.

My oh my!!! What a challenging challenge!

I won't even tell you how long this one took!!!

I wanted an image I didn't have to color...and I had to do it twice because the first one was just too ugly...

I do not have Staz On ink, YIKES!!!
So the one I'm posting uses vellum. I just could not get away with the smearing with regular ink.

I LOVE the technique but you apparently HAVE to use Staz On...

So...here it is...

Not my best work...my image is very hard to see...

Also the line image is a bit too dark so it overshadowed the colored image...
In retrospect I could have used a purple ink on the vellum. I tried using a colored ink on the original acetate. EPIC fail. I got so frustrated, I just let it be!

Probably should have kept this one to myself... :(

Thank you for looking at my blog!
