Brutus Monroe Blog Hop -- Anything Goes

Happy Wednesday, fellow crafters!  I'm back with another Brutus Monroe Inspiration Team Blog Hop, and this time it was an Anything Goes challenge.

I decided to ink up the Autumn Essentials Stamp set and use my Aqua Pigments to loosely paint the images.  I just love that border of pumpkins.  After stamping and painting, I backed it with some Tangerine Glitterstock and mounted it to a Lunch Bag Cardstock base.  The last bit of embellishment was to add some Nuvo Crystal Drops in the color Metallic Mustard Gold.

It may not feel like Fall out there, but I'm ready for it!


Be sure to hop along with the rest of the team to see how they interpreted the challenge.  I guarantee you won't want to miss each one!


Thanks for stopping by!

Brutus Monroe Blog Hop -- Decorative Details

Happy Wednesday, crafty friends!  I'm back with another card for the Brutus Monroe Inspiration Team Blog Hop.  We were challenged to use Decorative Details.  I decided to take the Die of the Month for September called, Flourish, and cut out a decorative detail from it to use to frame my images for the Trick or Treat set.  I used Charcoal Glitterstock and it worked beautifully!


If you'd like to see how I made this card, you can check it out here:

Brutus Monroe Blog Hop -- September Subscription Items

Happy Wednesday, fellow crafters!  I'm back again with a card for this week's Brutus Monroe Inspiration Team Blog Hop, and this week we were challenged to use the September Subscription items.  I chose to use the Stencil of the Month, the Stamp Club stamp, and the Embossing Powder of the Month.

These wine bottle tags came together so easily.  I sprayed my tags with some Distress Oxide Spray, and then embossed the Stencil image with the Embossing Powder of the Month.  I stamped the image using a watercolor technique in which you put your inks all over your image, and then spritz your image with some water before you stamp it.  When you stamp you'll end up with a watercolored look for your stamping. . .so cool.


If you'd like to see how I made these, I did make a video.



Now be sure to head to the rest of the Inspiration Team's blogs for my September Subscription inspiration!

Thanks for stopping by!

Brutus Monroe Blog Hop -- Patterned Paper

Happy Wednesday, y'all!  I'm back for another Blog Hop Wednesday with Brutus Monroe, and this time we are using Patterned Papers.  I stamped the Alley Cat stamp onto some Rustic Flowers paper, and then stamped it again onto some Neenah Cream cardstock so that I could use my Arteza EverBlend Markers on the windows.  I fussy cut those out and attached them to my patterned paper.  The sentiment is from the Feathered Homes stamp set.
