Default F4A539 Create-A-Background 6.19.20

Hello!

Ready for a new challenge?


Today I challenge you to do something a little different.
NO STAMPS

Before you gasp really loud. You can use stencils, any kind of paints, swipe and inkpad across your paper (or anything else you can think of). Then add a die cut to finish off your project.

Did you see there is a new watercolor challenge?
Here's a good opportunity to pick one of those
challenges and double up! Twofer!!!
Keyword: F4A539

Uploading: Remember the keyword is without spaces. Use a comma between keywords with a space after each comma.


If you are new to the challenges, please feel free to do this one or ANY of the challenges at any time. There is no time limit. They are not races to see who can do one first, nor are they contests of any sort. All the challenges are simply to provide inspiration and to get us stamping!


Need help linking a card? Follow these instructions!


1. Open 2 windows: One window for your card and one for this thread.
2. In this thread, click on reply and type anything you want to show before the link.
3. Got to your card window. Highlight the address for your card. (It says www. splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/showphoto..... and so on)
4. Click EDIT. Click COPY
5. Go back to this thread. Click PASTE.
You�re done!

Cool F4A539 explore

what a great challenge, thank you! I used a cutout window to showcase my watercolor powder based panel. Added a die cut pine branch and a die cut plant with leaves element. Added sparkle with gold trim and a sparkly dot, and texture with a twine bow. Finished with a hand lettered sentiment panel. Here's explore

Making BG's is my favorite! This one is a new technique for me, doubling up with today's Mixed386 challenge. Thank you, Jeanne.

A little late....I used a new decorative mask for the background that I hadn't tried yet.

Happy Heart
