Challenge Time-SDC76

Hi there! My last post for the month is up at Stampotique. We are wrapping! My directions for this cool gift wrap along with more photos, are on the site so check it out here. If you want to do the challenge you can go to the designer challenge site here.

Smushasha

This was an art journal background page that I had done ages ago & it was just waiting for something to come along. It was waiting for the "Smushasha" stamp by Daniel Torrente over at Stampotique. She is awesome & creepy-love her! Reminds me of the mermaid creatures from Harry Potter. I had done layers of paint on top of a dictionary paper & added cheesecloth with some mica bits-making it look like a fishing net. My octopus friend (another of Daniels) is stamped on glossy card stock and actually painted with alcohol inks-he looks pretty cool in real life. A bit of random stamping & some splashes of crackle paint, the page is done! I have a layout up (under the sea) using the same stamps at Stampotique designers challenge today if you want to check it out here.

Project Life Journal Cards

 I was playing with my Stampotique stamps & decided to make some journal cards. Super easy-paper, some stenciling & a stamp.

  I have a stack of these ready to go when I need them. This is also a fun way to play with new stamps when you get them home.

I use them for scrapbook layouts & now project life- also a quick way to customize my journal cards. Imagine all the possibilities!
