TLC447 ~ Fill It Up! ~ (9/16/13)
 

Hello everyone!! I'm a little late with my post because I have been watching the Miss America pageant.....aren't all the girls gorgeous!!!! When I was a little girl I would always dream about being Miss America...now I dream about my granddaughters becoming Miss America....time marches on...LOL!!! Anyway.....


Are you ready for another fun and inky TLC Challenge?? For this weeks challenge we are going to *Fill it Up!!*. That means to take one small stamp and use it to fill in the entire background...you can:


1. Stamp it in a random pattern
2. Stamp it in rows up and down
3. Stamp it in rows at an angle
4. Stamp in circles
5. Use only one color ink
6. Use as many colors as you like
7. Use a solid stamp
8. Use a line stamp and color in all the images (yikes...that sounds like a lot of work!!)


My Sample


I Love You To The Moon

Taking a chance that my Sister Owl Trio card will qualify for the "Fill It Up!" challenge as I used a single stamp to create the tree tops.

Here's my card:

Good one today Joan! Here's mine...I did another Halloween card to add to the stash.

Heads Will Roll

Great way to create our own bg DPs, Joan.....at least that's how I treated it. Thanks.

TRIANGLE CHRISTMAS

Here's my card for today's challenge ~ this is a good one that I use too infrequently ~

I was scrapping and this challenge was fresh in my mind, and I stamped a background for my scrap page. Hope this was okay, if not I can take out the keyword. I intend to do a card also. :) Thank you!
Here is Remember 9-11.

This sounds like fun! I hope to get a card made sometime today.

I needed a birthday card so used today's technique for this - second card for me today : )

Hit the Road

Joan, what a fun challenge today. Here's my card .

This challenge really opens up a whole world of possibilities in terms of hand-stamped backgrounds! After seeing these wonderful submissions, I've become inspired to pull out some of those tiny stamps that have never seen ink.

Since Joan was gracious enough to allow my first lose interpretation of her "Fill It Up" challenge, I decided to try my hand at one that was more in keeping with what she had in mind.

CAS Textual Birthday

I combined this challenge with the CAS challenge and the use of the envelope punch board.

Thanks for looking.

Great challenge. Love to make my own backgrounds. Here's my Thanks card.

I used the flowers to fill the center panel. I like this technique, and don't do it enough.
Thanks for the challenge.
Gray Happy Birthday.
