Default MIX 442 - Specimen Cards

Challenge Title: Specimen Cards

Hostess: UnderstandBlue (Lydia Fiedler)

Keyword: MIX442



View the gallery here



Ready for a new Mix-Ability challenge?!! Our goal is to make mixed media easy, approachable and FUN! We want to convince you that no matter what your style is - you can DO it!



This week's challenge is a throwback! Back when I started stamping and ATCs were all the rage, someone came up with specimen cards and they are SO fun to make!  I have



to walk you through the process - I hope you love them as much as I do. The only rule is to use more than one medium - I used dye inks and pigment ink. (Distress & Distress Oxides)


Use any techniques you’d like to - no stress, no worry! I can’t wait to see your designs! Have fun!


Remember to use the keyword MIX441 when uploading your creations to the gallery, come back and post a link, and let us "ooooooh" and "ahhhhhh" over your works of art!

I don't know if the no closed captioning was due to the video not being in HD or because we were on holidays (though I regularly watch videos on my phone with no sound). Anyway, this is my best guess at what a specimen card is meant to be - I wanted to give it a try after we got home again.
