Popping by with a card for the current challenge at Time Out. We're celebrating its 2nd year and the theme is Easter and/or Spring with the optional technique twist of masking. There's still about a week left to play and link up.
Just like my first card, I used stencils and masks -- I placed the ARTplorations butterfly stencil/mask (Shower of Flutters) on one side of my card base and the flower stencil/mask (Bloom Factory) on the other and then I sponged yellow ink. I also stamped some grungy numbers and splatters (Mixed Media Elements) in orange before lifting off the stencils. Then I stamped the coordinating butterflies (Trendy Butterflies) in blue and orange inks, as well as the sentiment (Sentiment Builders: Imagine and Sentiment Builders: Discover). Finished the card off by rounding the bottom corners.
Check out the cards the team + guest designer TaeEun made and then link up your own project based on the theme. And there are prizes! The winner (voted by the team) will receive a $20 gift certificate from STAMPlorations. And those who do the twist of masking will be included in a random drawing to win any 2 standard size ARTplorations stencils. So we hope you celebrate TO's 2nd birthday with us by linking up your Easter- and/or spring-themed projects! We can't wait to see your creations!

ReplyDeleteWow! This is quite an amazing card! I had to blink several times and then scoot up next to the computer screen to confirm that this is, in fact, ONE layer! I am stunned at how dimensional this looks and that you managed to create all of that depth with one layer. Kudos to you on that because it's amazing! I also love the way you added the pops of blue here and there. Thank you so much for the inspiration and for sharing these clever techniques with us for this week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge!
