#24 - opposite day

This week's challenge at Shopping our Stash is to do a project that is opposite of a style that you would normally do....I don't really have a specific style, but most of my cards generally have some sort of stamping on them and I usually have clean finished edges etc on my projects...I tried changing this one up by distressing all of the paper and using rub ons and stickers instead of stamping on the front of my card...play along with us, will you?

#23 - Texture me

 

This week's challenge at Shopping our Stash is to use your oldest embossing items to make a project...this can be dry embossing or heat embossing.  I used both with some rainbow glitter embossing powder and a fun checkerboard embossing folder...play along with us, won't you?

#22 - Then and now

This week's challenge at the Opus Gluei is a then and now challenge....take a project from a long time ago and use it for inspiration to make something new or update the old project.  As I was going through my blog looking at old projects, I came across these cards that I made for my friends.  The retro lady on the card front inspired me to pull out a retro stamp and get to work.  This is what I ended up with....thanks for looking!

#21 - mother's day cards with twine birds and flowers

This week's challenge at Shopping our Stash is "Lost and Found" - we are to use something that we have forgotten about or just don't really use too often any more - I chose to use some stickles that have been in hiding for a couple of years and some charms.  All of these items (including the paper and twine have been around for quite a while in my house)....play along will you?

#20 - The earth has music

This week's challenge at Shopping our Stash is a collaboration with Words to Scrap By and the theme is "The earth has music"...we were told we could interpret it however the theme moves us, so I chose sunshine and the song lyrics that go with it...hoping you have a warm spring coming your way and that you join in and play with us all this week!

#17 - some bunny loves you

Happy Easter everyone... this week's challenge at the Order of the Opus Gluei is to use a bunny on your project....I added googly eyes to mine as it was just a little creepy looking without them...not sure if it helped or not...might have been better if he was chocolate???  Now hop to it and show us your projects....
