My apologies for not blogging Week 23 sooner, somewhere along the line life got in the way ......
The Altered Playing Card Challenge for Week 23 was "Masks"
Create a mask, cover with ink etc, stamp over the top once dry, take mask off and stamp image in black over the top. Add some words if desired.
I think I did these correctly, but if not ...... oh well, I'm happy with how they turned out!
I started with a Dylusions stencil "Diamond Border" and 'Peach Parfait' ink (SU). Without moving the stencil, I stamped "Chicken Wire" (Kaisercraft) with 'Jet Black' Archival Ink over the top.
I next stamped the butterfly image from "Butterfly Wings" (Prima) and added the words from Darkroom Door.
On this card I used the "Mini Bricks" stencil from TCW with 'Cherry Cobbler' ink (SU). Without moving the stencil, I stamped "Bla Bla Bla" (Stampotique) on the background with 'Watering Can' Archival Ink. The dragonfly image is also from "Butterfly Wings" (Prima). I decided not to add any additional words to this card.
I am now up-to-date with this challenge, and with only a couple of weeks left before we have finished our deck of cards, I will have to think of what else to do?
Perhaps I can just make random cards to leave abandoned as a surprise for others to find.
Happy Crafting!
These turned out so fantastic, I love them and love the masks you chose to use. Really nicely done.
ReplyDeleteBoth are very, very nicely done, Helen. I have to admit that the "sentiment" you chose for the butterfly APC made me laugh! Perfect for a music teacher, huh? But, my heart always goes to the dragonfly! That's my favorite today!
