Thankful For You Mixed Media Card In Two Ways

Hello everyone… It’s the Thanksgiving week… We have so many things to be thankful for. One of them is YOU! My blog readers and crafty friends. THANK YOU for all your love and supports in this year…! You all have blessed me, encouraged me, and with your kind words you help me to grow and keep growing in many ways. And today I have these Thankful For You mixed media card in two ways… for you!

Thankful For You Mixed Media Card In Two Ways

First, I created the backgrounds using the Peony Number Two ARTplorations Stencil and Ken Oliver Color Bursts – Caribbean Set.

I put the stencil on a piece of watercolor paper, sprinkle the color burst powder on it, and sprayed with some water. Watching how the powder turn into watercolor is so fun šŸ™‚

I lifted up the stencil of the paper, instead of wiped it of, I grabbed another watercolor paper, and put the wet stencil on the paper and I got another print watercolored background.

I dried the papers with craft heater for speedy drying, you also can let it sit to dry. After they dried, I run them through my diecutting machine with the largest size of theĀ Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Dies.

I added both background panel on base cards with Tombow Xtreme Adhesive.

Then I randomly stamped some of the images fromĀ Mixed Media Grunge stamp setĀ using Memento Dew Drop – Sorbet Scoops, to create more texture look on the backgrounds.

I die cut theĀ Thankful Word DieĀ using creme and light grey cardstocks. Each color I die cut 5 times. And then I stacked them together using the liquid glue to create the chipboard sentiment.

Before I added the chipboard sentiment on the card, I stamped the sub-sentiment from Wonderfall Time Stamp Set. I finished the card with some gold assortment sequins.

My cards today are inspired by the photo inspiration from the CUTplorations November 2017 Challenge. I used the color combo and theme. The CUTplorations Challenge team share their projects on STAMPlorations Blog today to inspire you! And… you still have time to play along with this month challenge. Link up your project HERE.
