Hello! Here I come again with my last 3 Papertrey Ink Stamp-a-Faire projects. This time I tried Tie-Dye Techniques, the Card Set and the Homemade Embellishments challenges.
Here's my card using the marbleized technique with the last of my husband's shaving cream and Block Alphabet dies. Someone is going to get a bit mad when he find's out he can't shave today ;)
Next comes the Card Set challegne, inspired by Danielle Flanders use of the Half & Half dies to make mini cards. My color combo is Hawaiian Shores, Pure Poppy and Summer Sunrise + a pop of grey. I used Modern Wood Mats to stamp the lower portion of the card and the big "you" and companion sentiments from All About You. The tiny hearts were cut from the Tiny Tags die and then I used one of the images from the Happy Hexagons mini set to stamp a polka dot pattern on them.
I also made a coordinating wrap with stamps and ribbon.
This is the back of the wrap, with some die cut and stamped hearts (these are Memory Box).
And finally, the Homemade Embellishments challenge. In this case I worked with Jess Witty's design. I love everything this woman does :)
Again, the transparency was stamped with an outline hexagon from Happy Hexagons stamped to build a modern pattern. The sentiment is from one of the Think Big Favorites sets.
Wow!! That was some stuff! I used lots of products for these projects so instead of including a neverending supply list, please feel free to email me if you have questions about any of the products used. The main ones are linked anyway.
Thanks for visiting and have a great week!

How fun to see which challenges you did! I didn't have shaving cream or Stazon, so I could n't try these two, but I love what you did! And I especially love the little card set you made-- it's so perfect!

Great cards. I love the hexagon on the last one. I have clear cardstock coming and I can't wait to try this technique.

Love the hexagons on the clear cardstock :) Are you getting the clear cardstock from PTI or from another stationary supply store?

Wow, you've been busy! I am loving everything you made (hee hee about the shaving cream). The hexagons on the clear cardstock looks fantastic!
