Pink Gems "For the Girls"
Another Colorwash for STV12MON38 & Mojo #260
I decided to combine a few challenges in this one. The StampTV Mix it Up Monday for a color-wash background, the new sketch for Mojo Monday #260, and the Pink Gems "For the Girls" challenge #56.
I wanted to try the STV12MON38 color-wash technique again, so that is the background. Done in Distress Inks on the acrylic block, then misted with water and "stamped" on paper. The colors used were Spun Sugar, Worn Lipstick, Dusty Concord, and Tea Dye.
The Mojo Monday sketch #260 was to do either round or square. The sketch shows a strip of paper from the right and a wide ribbon from the left. My ribbon options were somewhat limited, or I would have picked something with more contrast to the strip of paper. The flower was made using the Boho Blossoms punch, distressing the paper, then crumpling and layering them.

SRM "Birthday" Card for OWHsketch take2
I WON a Challenge!!
I was at "My Page" on StampTV, to post the last card, and found a message saying I had WON a challenge back in June of 2011!!! Knocked my socks off with surprise! I hadn't even started this blog when I entered the challenge. Life has been so crazy the last 18 months or so, that I've had very little crafting time until recently. My mental health was suffering!! Anyway, here's the link to the challenge that shows my card as winning: http://stamptv.ning.com/forum/topics/stvfrilm1-challenge-winner
I won't be at all surprised if it's too late to collect the prize (more than a year!!), but it was a real kick to see I had won!
