Monday means a new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. It's a summer challenge. Summer has just started and why wouldn't we celebrate this? Be inspired by this amazing season.
This is the last one of my summer birthday card season. I wantedto try something else like magazine collaging. I'm not really a magazine reader, so I have to make do with H&M catalogs. Normally, this is more something I would do in an art journal, but by keepingt simple it can also work on a card.
First I made the background by spraying over the Leaves mask with Lemon Zest and let it lie so I could make other layers such as making splashes Neon Pink and Black Marble. I then outlined the Leaves with a Pitt Artist Pen.
After frequently browsin through the catalog I've found the model I wanted to use on my card and the extra accessories that I wanted to use. I've got to practice lots more on collaging. I'm still a little bit too cautious, but that's okay for doing this technique on a card. After I cut out all the elements and collaging them, it was time for some coloring. I've used different colors of Distress Markers that were also used in the background. Distress Markers work perfectly on Multi Medium Matte. With a white Sharpie, I doodled a little bit.
To join in all you need to do is make a project that fits this weeks challenge and you can be the winner of the $50 gift voucher that our amazing sponsor Simon Says Stamp offers. This prize will go to a random entry. So go over to the Stamp and Show Monday Challenge blog, let the DT members inspire you and join in the fun!
Thank you for stopping by! Love to see you next time!
Hugs,
Sandra
