10.12.2024 Stay Crafty with A Blog Named Hero - OCTOBER Challenge (REMINDER)


Welcome to another "Stay Crafty with a Blog Named Hero" Challenge!

 MORE Inspiration --- This challenge is about thanks! I am staying with my nautical ink blending theme!

TIP/HINT:

Try ink blending right on the rubber stamp!  Check out the first card on the left, if you ink blend on the stamp, the impressions are so clear!  I have done both.  The second card is a combination of ink blending on the stamp, and also of the far left greenery to diffuse the image.  You can see the difference.


Create a card using Hero Arts products as your main focus and join in for a chance to win 2 $50 gift cards...Yay (in time for Christmas)..


This challenge ends 5:00PM (PT) November 3rd

10.02.2024 Case Me A Christmas Card 2024 - Michelle Lupton Series

Michelle Lupton's Case me a Christmas Card Series



I am so exited to join Michelle in the 2024 Case me a Christmas Card Series.

I literally popped up the second I was invited and already had a card in mind, and went to it right away!!!  I actually have several cards of hers in mind - she is so VERY inspiring!

If you are not familiar with the FABULOUS Michelle Lupton - you can find her creations in Instagram: Michelle Lupton


Here is the post link where Michelle CASE's my card!  =  LINK to Michelle


I selected to use her exact design!!!
My card is on the LEFT, and hers is showing from her Instagram


Here is the card of Michelle's that I have CASE'd
and can be found on this blog post:

LOVE the vibrant blue of Michelle's card


I chose green to capture more of a 
Christmas vibe


Using Ardyth' LIMES Acronym for CASE'ing a Card : 
(SEE here) 

LList : Centered tone on tone, white side borders, large word sentiment and smaller banner sentiment.
I - Include - I included a black sentiment onto a white banner type strip, a centered colored strip with tone on tone, as well as large word die cut.
M - Modify - I modified by coloring in gradients with a copic on the leaves.
E - Exclude - I excluded the (vellum) layer underneath the large word die.
S - Spin - My spin was using gold embellishments inside the berries instead of random, and using green instead of blue as the focal color.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

As far as the LIMES went, I was not far enough away on her design at all. But it is an approved (by her) tribute, so I am happy with it.

Here is a second card of Michelle's that I have Cased


And here is my version of her card as a Christmas card.





Hope you are inspired to create!
