Good morning! Today, I have taken three large puzzle pieces (from a child's 24-piece puzzle set), and turned them into little miniature art pieces. Take a look at my Art Anthology Snapguide to see how it's done.
And here are the completed pieces:
Thank you for stopping by today.
Until later.......

Faith and Love
Good morning everyone! I have a couple of ATCs to share with you today that I created using the wonderful stamps from Technique Junkies.
I first sprayed my card with Art Anthology Colorations in Wild Orchid, Peacock Feathers, and Heart. I then stamped them with Contemporary Floral. I then painted them with Art Anthology Sorbet in Pixie, Coral, and Tink. The leaves were painted with Leaf Sorbet. Faith was stenciled in Black Leather Jacket Sorbet. I outlined the card with a ruler and a Micron pen.

For this ATC, I sprayed the Waimea Bay and Patience Colorations. I then used the Distress Removal technique (found in the Sensational Stencils CD) with the dot matrix stamp. I stamped Lanterns and then painted them with Art Anthology Velvets in Tango, Desire, and Fiji. The tops and bottoms of each lanterns are painted with Art Anthology Gold Metal Effects. Love was stenciled with Black Leather Jacket Sorbet.

I Dream of Paris
Good morning! The theme for the Art Anthology design team this month was our Bucket List. We were tasked with creating a project based on one of the items from our Bucket List. Well, I've always wanted to visit Paris, France.
If you would like to see how I put this spread together, check out my Art Anthology Snapquide to see step-by-step how this spread was created:

Ahhhh Paris. Maybe one of these years.

Birds, Leaves, and a Butterfly
Good morning everyone! Here's a project I did for Technique Junkies the other day.
I stamped the new release Oak Leaves onto my page several times, carefully matching up the edges, using Cinnamon ink. I then painted some of the leaves with Art Anthology Velvet in Desire, Tango, Lemon Tart, and Shamrock.
Next I stamped Birds, Set of Five in several different colors of ink and cut out. I arranged them on my page and after gluing them down (I used my Xyron sticker machine), I outlined then in black Sharpie to make them stand out. To finish the page, I added words from the Sizzix Thinlits Adventure die set.
The front is a lot simpler.
I sprayed Art Anthology Wild Orchid and Salted Caramel Colorations onto my page. Next I stamped Big Winged Butterfly on a piece of mixed media paper and cut out. I painted the butterfly with Art Anthology Sorbets in Pixie, Coral, and Mi Bella. Before gluing it down, I added dots using the Art Anthology Dottie stencil and Aqua Marine ink. Once my butterfly was in place, I then added circles using the top of one of my Art Anthology paint bottles, Tuxedo Velvet, and white paint. The word "life" comes from the same Sizzix Thinlits Adventure set I used above.
One side is a bright, fun page using one of the new September releases from Technique Junkies.
