Here's my stained glass window card:

MIX11 - Stained Glass Diecut Detail by dini - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers

I started playing with some dies and a 6x6" piece of chipboard earlier, and made a stencil by cutting out different sized hearts with dies - added a few layers of stenciled hearts by sponging through the openings... added some stamping, then used the cut out hearts to mask and inked over all the layers. I haven't completed a project with the panel yet, but it's kinda fun... I'll just share it here....! Just another idea to get your wheels turning.

Check out more inspiration from the challenge samples today!

Jeanne has a great tutorial on her Inky Paws blog demonstrating the background of her Toadally cool card.

Dina's blog, Mama Dini's Stamperia, gives you two different ways to show color through the window of your die cuts.

Janelle, has a few step photos showing layered die-cuts as stencils.

Dina, that panel looks wonderful!

This sounds interesting. I often use my negatives as stencils so I think I'll try to come up with an idea using option two.
But I just emptied my paper bin for the recycling collection the other day :D, I might have to bend the rules and actually cut a fresh negative!

I went the "mask" route and combined this challenge with others for the day.

WINDOWED POPPIES

OK - it was fun, and I enjoyed messing around. It will make a good guy card but I don't know if I like the end result that much. I did find a scrap negative in my bin, but it wasn't an easy colour to work with. I hope to try again with a chosen die rather than what was in the bin ;).
Thank you for the fun challenge.

Woo hoo! I love this challenge! I busted a CAS move with a fun new masking product. MIX11 - The Voicemail Puzzle by UnderstandBlue - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers

FUN challenge (although it took my poor brain a while to get something I actually liked- lol!) I used my diecut as a stencil.

Hmmm, I think this is a can-do. I've still got a few "free" hours this evening, so I might be back later with a card.

First, I'll take a stroll through the gallery...

One more... this fits 3 challenges today, so I'm posting it early - I'll have a tutorial on my blog in a couple of weeks!

I don't know whether this card qualifies as mixed media, but I tried. :rolleyes:

I'll just look forward to next week's challenge .. okay?

Whoa! The gallery is looking sweet!

Used the opportunity to do some art therapy as we're dealing with the loss of a long time friend from DH's Navy days. Memorial to a Friend

Done!

Love the Mix-ability challenges as it gets me to try new techniques and use my sprays and Distress supplies more than I usually do. Here's my card for this challenge:

Die Cut Flower Stencil

Well, here it is. I found this frame in my scraps and I have to confess I do not remember how I got the color.???????? Maybe I misted the black.. Just thought of that..

Thanks Janelle!
