Hello Everyone,
I am trying to join in on the weekly challenges over at Everything Wendy Vecchi using her techniques from her wonderful books (she has three right now and a fourth that was released at CHA in January) each week. I did the first two..yippee!! The first one was late but I have managed to get the second one in on time. Here they both are.
This is the 2nd challenge. On this you were supposed to use a chipboard flower and Wendy's technique from here. The chipboard flowers I have had forever but the stem is from Wendy's Art Parts. I also used the stamp set Be Inspired...Make Art and Card Art Essentials. I used the plaid background stamp for the technique but it is really hard to see. I think maybe my white ink was not as juicy as it should have been. Also used Tim Holtz Distress Ink, stickles and some misc ribbon I had in my stash.
Let me know what you think.
Happy Creating,
Shirley

This is the first I created based on an ATC that Wendy created from her 1st book page 16. We were to use a butterfly. I used Wendy's stamp sets Be Inspired...Make Art and Card Art Essentials and also Hero Arts butterfly stamp. I stamped the butterfly on Wendy's Clearly Art and colored it with Tim Holtz alcohol inks. Just heated it up and fixed it how I wanted it AND IT STAYS! I absolutely LOVE this stuff. Now it is coming out in white and black. Cannot wait. The scalloped border is from Wendy's Art Parts which I also LOVE. I used Stampin' Up pearls (these are FABULOUS) and you can order them here. I used Tim Holtz color wash on the background along with Perfect Pearls Mist. The flower was also done in color wash but I painted it on with a brush and used white ink on it also. The words are from Wendy and I stamped them out and cut them a part inking them with distress ink. I used a gel pen over Heart.

Wow, these are just great. Lovin' that Wendy Vecchi. Good mix of Tim stuff, too! That Clearly Art material looks really cool.
