Mix it up Double Layout Double Cards

For the mix it up project I created a double layout and double cards. For the layout pages I used seven different paper lines from Quick Quotes.

Double Cards I used four paper lines.

Double cards I used most scraps from the four collections.  Red White Blue, Serenade, Adventure Awaits and Whistling Dixie. This is a fun and easy way to make a card and use up the scraps that are always left behind. after making a larger project.

Both cards the outside edge of the card was distressed with 2017 Royal Blue PowderPuff Chalking Ink as well as the center circles and the edge of the border punch.

Altered Anchor

Hello crafty friends. I took a wooden anchor, and started to alter it by adding layers of multi-media products and paper, Then one all dry I started to add the embellishments.

The wooded anchor has a layer of gesso, and scraps of paper from Anchors Aweigh was randomly paced on the frame with a thin layer of Mod Podge, Once the aper was dries the paper was trimmed around the anchor then lightly sanded.I painted a layer of white wash over selected areas of the anchor.Then I mixed up wall compound and stencil paste together to place in the to several stencils strategically placed

Hand made flower using basic rose from heart felt creations. 

Petaloo flowers added to the center bottom of the anchor and a flourish stencil was added to the right side. I have 3 charms hanging down the center of the anchor.

2017 Bora Bora PowderPuff Chalking ink was used around the outside of the anchor. Crystal and Aqua bling was added to the bottom left side.

Junes Friday's Challenge Masculine Cards

Fridays Challenge on Quick Quotes

I have created three masculine cards for the guys in my family.

 Card 1

On card 1 I used Mulberry Paper line QQP-MB101 on a black base card. 

The tool chest was created with red and silver paper.

I placed the red card stock into an embossing folder that looks like a metal grate.  The tools was cut using silver paper then ran through the die cut machine cutting with red card stock. They where  then trimmed down to just the handles of the tools. I then ran them through the Big Shot in an embossing folder. I stamped the sentiments with archival ink distressing the edges with 2017 Royal Blue PowderPuff Chalking Ink. Layering the tools at the bottom of the tool chest and added the hammer and screwdriver under the sentiment. Card 1 is a 41/4 X 51/2" card

Card 2

On card 2 & 3 I used Quick Quotes paper line Adventure Awaits QQP-AD101

Card 2 is is 51/2 X 51/2" card, with a light sea foam card base. I cut two layers of papers 51/4 X 51/4" & 5 X 5" Layering each layer after distressing the edges with a distress tool then edges them with 2016 Navy Powderpuff Chalking Ink. The motorcycle was die cut using the same paper line and used the chalking ink to highlight the area's of the motorcycle. The edges of the lighter paper with a gears stamp. A sentiment was stamped on white card stock distressed with Navy chalking ink, layered on the patterned paper. 

 Card 3

Card 3 is a 4`/4 X 51/2" card, the card base is a white card stock, layering two pieces of the paper line with the edges distressed with a distressing tool.
