Cat Moo and Art Journal Page

Hello Everyone,

I have created my first Moo! theme is 'Cats' at Moo Mania.

 

Moo is 2.8 * 7 c.m.card art work. I find it very difficult to fit my art in that size,as I work on whole of a art journal page. :) So I created one with my Moo cat...

 

Actually, it takes few minutes to make moo and its fun! Make one moo  and join the fun at Moo Mania

Thanks so much for visiting.

Tammy Tutterow inspired card

Hello Everyone,

Its a brilliant designer Tammy Tutterow inspired challenge at Simon says stamp
She has posted so many tutorials with different techniques , difficult to pick one though. This is my take...

I stamped square background with Brushed pewter distress paint. When it dried I applied broken china, salty ocean and peacock feather distress inks. Then I sprinkled clear embossing powder on the edges and heat set that. Applied vintage photo around the edge.
On vellum I stamped flower and butterfly with Archival ink, colored them on backside with spun sugar, Victorian velvet, peeled paint and wild honey distress inks.
You can find detailed step by step tutorial here at Tammy's blog. She has created magnificent tag with this technique.
