ATSM #81 - ANYTHING GOES!!

Hello crafters, its time for your favorite challenge at Addicted to Stamps and more... ANYTHING GOES !! and I am sure you all enjoy this challenge as much as I do, it gives us an opportunity to explore so may unlimited ideas. So, you have so much explore, get going and create what your heart desires. We also have a fabulous Guest designer Dawn from Lily Pink Scraps joining us with her wonderful creation :)Here's what I did...
I decided to so some sponging using my Distress inks (Yep !! I got them recently and had to use them). I inked the card base with blue creating the sky. I hand drew kites on a separate paper and inked them too. I made the string of the kite too by hand and stuck the kites one going over the edge, indicating that we should think beyond and dream big, keep high aspirations :) Finally, I stamped the sentiments in a rows (from Paper sweeties) to coordinate with my theme. Hope you like my card.
There is a lot more lovely inspiration from the DT, Please visit our challenge blog here. The winner will receive a wonderful prize from our sponsor this week Stamp Art Design



I am excited to see what you will come up with ....

I couldn't resist creating another card, with so may challenges around :) This was an easy card, I stamped the floral images multiple times (from Dipsy doodling - flower frame cling set), then fuzzy cut and colored them with Sharpie Markers. Added touch of gold with gel pen and adhered all the elements on card base with foam dots and glue. Sentiment is (from Paper Sweeties set). So here's a look into my card...
I will play this for the following challenges -
1. CAS(E) this sketch #62
2. Runway Inspired challenge #53 - Temperly London
3. A blog Named Hero #37 - Flower
4. Simply Create too #54 - Mother's day or for a female
  

Thank you so much for visiting my blog and leaving me a comment :)

    Really like the kite card. Nice sponging job, and I especially like the way the kites fly off the edge of the card, and that it represents something to you. Images and placements mean things to me on my cards sometimes too, but of course people usually won't know that.
