Tiffany Johnson Creative #100daysartplay Challenge - Day 69



Today is Day 69 of the Tiffany Johnson Creative #100daysartplay Challenge.  This week the prompt is "Dollar Tree Finds", but as we don't have a Dollar Tree shop in the UK, I am having a week of creating what I fancy.

In my stash I found a circular gel plate background I had made a couple of years back, do decided to use this as the base of the card.  Over the top, I used two shades of Ranger Archival Inks "Magenta Hue" and "Shadow Grey" through the Funky Fossil "Scandi Starburst" stencil, moving the stencil about so the colours overlapped.

On a piece of white card, using Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink I stamped the flower arrangement, which is part of the Funky Fossil Designs "Hello Gorgeous" stamp set.  I also stamped the sentiment, which is part of the Funky Fossil "Stripped Back Sentiment" background.

I fussy cut the flowers and glued on to the card, adding a touch of colour using a Derwent Inktense pencil.  I cut down the sentiment and inked the edges, then stuck that on to the card using double sided sticky tape.

Funky Fossil "Polite Society" stencil sympathy card



Sadly, it's time for another sympathy card, so I've gone with a  clean and simple sympathy card design.

I've worked straight on to a white card blank for this card, using Ranger "Sky Blue" Archival Ink through the Funky Fossil "Polite Society" stencil, fading the colour our towards the top and the left hand side.

Using Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink, I've stamped the flower from the Funky Fossil "In the meadow" stamp set and the greeting from the Funky Fossil "Stripped Back Sentiment" stamp set.

Tiffany Johnson Creative #100daysartplay Challenge - Day 68



Today, is Day 68 of the Tiffany Johnson Creative #100daysartplay challenge.  This week has a prompt of "Dollar Tree Finds" but as we don't have that shop in the UK, for this week, I am making things as I please.

Starting with a cream coloured tag, I used two shades of Distress Oxide Inks for the background stripes (Picked Raspberry and Spiced Marmalade).  Over the top of that I used the Funky Fossil "Circle Cascade" stamp created by "Dellow Designs" with two shades of Versafine Clair Inks (Summertime orange and Charming Pink).

Next, using Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink, I stamped the flowers and butterflies, which are part of the Funky Fossil Designs "In the meadow" stamp set.  Finally adding some white dots of Posca Pen to break up the colour.

Tiffany Johnson Creative #100daysaertplay Challenge - Day 67



Well I've got two thrids of the way through the Tiffany Johnson Creative #100daysartplay Challenge.  I can see the light of the finish line at the end of the tunnel. The prompt for this week should be "Dollar Tree" finds, but here in the UK, we don't have Dollar Tree, so I'm making making anything I fancy this week.

For this card, I used a piece of gel plate/Brusho background I had in my stash.  Stamping the Creative Expression "Hexagon Script" over the surface using Versafine Clair "Charming Pink" ink.  I used the same ink to ink the edges of the card. I splattered some white paint from a Posca Pen across the surface of the card.

I used Wow! Clear Embossing Ink and Wow! Bright White Super Fine Embossing Powder to stamp the dandelion and sentiment and then heat set.  (I'm not sure who made the stamp set, it's one I've had for years with a reference of SSC1106 STM2010). I then mounted the card on to a piece of pink paper and then on to a white card blank.

Tiffany Johnson Creative #100daysartplay Challenge - Day 66



Today is Day 66 of the Tiffany Johnson Creative #100daysartplay challenge.  This week the prompt should be "Dollar Shop Finds" but as we don't have Dollar shops here in the UK, I am having a week of creating for the sale of it.

For this make I used the Funky Fossil Designs "Tie Dye" stencil with "Chrome Yellow" Archival Ink and "Wilted Violet" Distress Oxide Ink.  I then splattered paint from a purple Posca Pen across the surface.

I inked the edges of the card with Versafine Clair "Fantasia" purple ink then used the same ink to stamp the flower and sentiment, both are part of the Funky Fossil Designs "Hello Gorgeous" stamp set.  Finally adding some dots of orange Posca pen to the middle of the flowers.

I've used off-cuts of patterned papers from a Funky Fossil Designs paper pad called "Neutrals", to create the background collage landscapeof this card. Masking a circle for a moon and edging the moon mask with ink. Stamping one of the Lavinia Stamps "Whimsical Hares" and their "Woodland" stamp in Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink.

Tiffany Johnson Creative #100daysartplay Challenge - Day 65



Today is Day 65 of the Tiffany Johnson Creative #100daysartplay challenge.  As we don't have the "Dollar Tree Shop" here in the UK, I am making my own prompts for this week.

I've opted for a "Monochrome" theme for my make, using a selection of products from Sweet Poppy Stencils.

I started with the "Leaf Aperture" stencil and "Sea Grass" Ranger Archival Ink.  Over the top of that I lay the "Floral Trellis" stencil, applying "Olive" Ranger Archival Ink to create the background pattern.

I used Versafine Clair "Avocado" green ink to stamp the "Pumpkin Vine" and the sentiment from the "Hugs & Kisses" stamp set.

Finally, adding some colour using Derwent Inktense pencils a 2B pencil and a white gel pen.
