Need a sentiment and there isn't one in your stash? Let's have a sentiment mash-up!
This week's challenge is to create a new sentiment from at least two sources. You can even mash up your own handwriting with stamped sentiments or magazine words.
Here are some ideas to get you started, but don't be limited by this list. Think up ways to create a fun sentiment.
Bold words and calligraphy words. Large words with small words. Stamped words and handwritten words.
It takes two or more mediums for your project to be mixed media so toss in some paint, inkers, pencil, fabric, magazine pages, whatever works for your style and have some fun!
Upload your project with the challenge keyword, MIX107, to build our sentimentally mashed-up gallery! Thank you for playing along this week and... Happy Valentines!

This challenge is so much fun. I got hit with so many ideas all at once - I may need to get checked for a concussion!
Oh no, Kyra! We don't need you in the hospital from all those ideas.
To recover here's a simple home remedy.
1. Chill wood mounted rubber stamp in refrigerator.
2. Apply to affected area for 5 minutes.
3. Look in mirror for good impression.
4. Repeat until all good impressions have been found that hit you for this challenge.
Warning! Failure to use clean stamp will result in the wrong impression.

I stencilled part of my sentiment, with modelling paste and glitter, and stamped the other part, adding Glossy Accents. Which, since it's a grey, grey, grey day here, I couldn't really get to show.
Actually, the stencil sentiment in full is "be true to you", so all I did was substitute the stencilled you with the stamped. But that gives it a whole different layout and feel ;-).
And now I have a whole lot of glitter everywhere.
For mediums, I have the Glossy Accents, modelling paste and Enamel Accents as well as my inks .

I haven't done a challenge in a long time so I thought I'd give it a try. I'm not very good at hand lettering but if I'm going to get better I have to practice. The lettering includes stamped, computer generated, tissue paper, and hand lettering.
I created this for the mini challenge, posted it but was not quite happy with it. Then this challenge popped up and forced me to pull this back out and finish it. I thought the sentiment words were a bit flat so I colored, 3d crystal painted and finished them off with glossy accents. I like this version much better, it hangs right by our door welcoming guests.

Thank you for this super challenge! The stamp reads I like you berry much, and I think the berry looks so cute with the big tail on the y. But it has limited use - after my hubby, who else can I send that card to?!! But you inspired me to block out the other parts of the sentiment and write in something else to make it more versatile. Here is my berry card.
