Whatever the Weather with Tim Holtz



Hello Monday my friends! We are back with a new challenge for you - WHATEVER THE WEATHER, and we are highlighting Tim Holtz products this week at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge.  If you have your Tim stash, use it this week on your entry, if not, no worries. 

Please join me in welcoming our guest designer for March, Lisa Rabellino at Lisa Creativa. I know you will really enjoy her beautiful mixed media style!

Here was my weather view while I was working on my project. Another snowstorm, high winds, cold...I am SO looking forward to spring! At least my dancing hula girl is there to keep me smiling while I work. 


Whatever the Weather...rain, sun, calm, windy, warm, cold...it is always there. I'm just hoping it's NOT 2 feet of snow!! Honestly, I really enjoy the weather and how changeable it is, but I do find myself getting nervous now and then when it gets severe. 
No matter what, gotta Love this Life!


I started with stencils and distress oxide inks.


Then, stencils and sprays...


How about some distress crayons now?



Oh, and maybe a bit of paint. I'm liking the mix of design and texture, but in the end, most of it got covered up. 


I stamped the ATC stamp on canvas, and added lots of Idea-ology bits. 



I love this life, whatever the weather!!

Simon Says: Love is in the Air



Hello Monday my friends! Hope you have all had a lovely and creative week. We have a new challenge for you at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge - LOVE IS IN THE AIR. We know what holiday is just around the corner, so use this week to get ready for it! 

It's been wonderful having Wendy with us for the month sharing her amazing inspiration and creativity! We will miss you Wendy!

ROBOT LOVE
(sure, robots have hearts too!)


It all started with texture paste on the tag, then I stamped the moon, and went back in with the rockets and stars.


I sent for a darker background with the Distress black soot.


Then added in a bit of orange and blue...


a bit more color with the misters...



then, distress crayons to build more depth.


I stamped the robot using the Stamping Platform, then the balloon onto watercolor paper, then colored them with watercolor markers. Finally, I fussy cut this out and popped it with foam tape. 


Details...




This robot is ready to travel to the Moon to express his love! Wouldn't this be a fun tag to give your sweetie on Valentine's Day? ...after all, love is in the air!


I was inspired by Tim Holtz's Blueprint Robots to make my tag for our challenge. I hope I've inspired you to join us this week. One lucky participant will be drawn for the $50 shopping voucher from our generous friends at Simon Says Stamp!
