Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge: At Home!
The LEAD of this challenge will be invited to be a guest designer in an upcoming challenge!
For my card I started with some designer papers that I have had for quite awhile. I just loved the wood and tiny flower combination. I thought it worked well with the inspiration photo. I found a piece of white card stock already die cut with the Life Style Craft's Trelis border die. I decided to use it to ground my focal images.

Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge: Unicorn!
The LEAD of this challenge will be invited to be a guest designer in an upcoming challenge!
For my card I started with some water color paper and distress inks. I brushed on some grass and sky. I used the distress sprayer to add some water splatters. I blotted with a paper towel. Since the theme is all about unicorns, I decided to go all out. Of course, after all of my years collecting stamps, I still do not have a unicorn. I had to "make" one...sort of! I used MFT The Whole Herd stamps and die namics. I used the horse in this set. I used wink of stella to color the horse and shades of pink distress inks for the mane and hooves. I added a hand-cut unicorn horn using gold glitter card stock....ta da...my instant Unicorn!
I figured a unicorn must reside in a sparkly barn. I used MFT Barn die namics and die cut with smooth white, shades of pinks, and some silver glitter card stocks. I assembled the barn and inlaid a few of the pink panels on the door. I added a gold glitter fence using MFT Rolling Hills fence die namics. I added the sentiment from MFT Bling It On. I finished with a few tiny stars and gold sequins.

Grateful for You!
Happy Sunday! I am popping in with a couple of cards to share. Finally had a chance to get crafty. Since schools out, I am hoping to have more time to play in my craft room.
For my first card, I am playing along with a couple of blog challenges. I am playing along with MFT Color Challenge.
I am also playing along with MFT Camp Create Watercoloring Challenges and Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Animal Magic. This first card involves watercoloring. I started with some watercolor paper. I used versamark and white embossed the circles background stamp. I made sure this image was not a perfect stamping because I was going for a softer more distressed look.
I used blueberry and gumball green MFT inks to watercolor a sky and some grass. I add some fine splatters as well as some bigger splatters to create dimension. I included some white acrylic paint with the splatters. To add even more texture, I added a few spritzes of goosebumps spray.

I stamped and die cut these pigs using MFT The Whole Herd stamps and die namics. I colored the pigs with copics to comply with the color challenge colors. I finished with a white embossed sentiment and some clear sequins.
For my second card, I am playing along with this week's Color Throwdown Challenge and MFT Camp Create Glitzy Glitter Challenge.
I used MFT Thankful Thoughts stamp set and Words of Gratitude die namics. I also used MFT fishnet cover up and Feathers and Arrows die namics. I added glitter to the tips of the feathers. I used black glitter card stock for the word. I finished my card with a few sequins.
As always thanks so much for stopping by!

Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge: Rainbow!
The LEAD of this challenge will be invited to be a guest designer in an upcoming challenge!
For today's card I am using MFT Stamps and dies. I started with some watercolor paper and a metal oval die cut to use for my arcs in the watercolor layered rainbow. I chose to use metal instead of a die cut piece because I am working with water. I wanted to clean the die cut between colors and a paper die cut would get soggy as well as absorb and possibly smear and muddy the colors.
I placed the metal die cut onto watercolor paper, brushed the arc with plain water, then used Distress Reinkers to color the rainbow. I blotted when necessary. I even waited a bit between colors before proceeding to the next color. I continued until I ran out of space. I wanted to leave a bit of white at the top and the bottom. I spritzed with water. I also added some watered down copic white splatters for added dimension.
