Sharing on a Sunday

I had loads of fun yesterday with Papertrey Ink's Stamp-A-Faire's challenges, but these are the few cards I did yesterday morning, before I started my marathon of card making.

This first card is a first technique for me, using Make It Monday's Challenge #23 Dry Brushing. I didn't have any white acrylic paint so I used some green stuff I had left over from painting my Hallowe'en decorations last year. I love the rustic kind of feel to it and added a bit of brown ink round the edges just to finish it off a bit better. I also used Stampin' Royalty's Challenge #81 for the sketch and CC332 to use Chocolate Chip, Wild Wasabi and Pool, Party, which we haven't got over here yet, so I subbed it with Soft Sky instead.

Stamps: Frog Hop, Fillable Frames #2, Fillable Frames Additions 1 all from PTI


Papers: Chocolate Chip, Wild Wasabi, Soft Sky (retired), Bella Rose DSP (retired) all from SU, Stampers Select White from PTI


Inks: Chocolate Chip, Wild Wasabi both from SU, Memento Tuxedo Black, Copics, Acrylic Paint


Accessories: Wild Wasabi Ribbon (retired) from SU, Fillable Frames #2 die from PTI, Buttons from Elzybells

My next one is for Viva La Verve's Sketch #2 for July for the sketch, Color Throwdown's Challenge #151 to use rainbows and Cute Card Thursday's Challenge #174 to make a man's card. Ever since I saw Maile Belles card here I have wanted to make a rainbow of chevron stripes and I finally got round to it on this card!

My next one is for Just Add Ink's Challenge #77 for the sketch, CC331 to use Not Quite Navy, Baja Breeze and Cherry Cobbler and for Free For All Challenge #74 to use 2 of the same thing. Each of my flowers are in pairs!

My next one is another SUO thank you for one of my customers. This one is for Viva La Verve's Sketch #3 for July, Papertake Weekly's Getting Cute Challenge and CR84FN34 to use yellow, pale pink and bright pink. I did stretch this sketch a bit, but you can still see the inspiration (I hope!) This is the pretty swatch from CR84FN...
