MTTC #500 Theme is Numbers DT inspiration card for 27 January 2023

 Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog! My heart's excited this week about 4 inches of snow coming, celebrating our 27th wedding anniversary, and reaching this #500 theme for My Time To Craft!!!

Oo-la-la!!! At MTTC, I've picked the first 2 themes of the year (welcome baby and snowman) as well as 'administratively' designated this #500 theme to be Numbers. I just couldn't imagine us not doing something celebratory for our 500th competition in blogland! 

It happens to have worked out that my/our 27th anniversary is on the 27th of January and that's also our launch date! Wow! Easy-peasy card idea for me! 

This card is ultra feminine but my husband will just place it on the piano so I might as well have something very pretty to look at! :) 

#27 wedding anniversary card =

a. light gold sheen flat base 5" x 7" = The Paper Source website

b. the floral collage cardstock cut with decorative scissors started as a 4" x 6" panel = My Mind's Eye

d. the rest are stash items

MIUCB DT project for 1 November 2022

Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog!! My heart's excited to share another terrific mixed media card that I made for my design team commitment for Mix It Up Challenge Blog!!

MIUCB's #62 launches November 1 for six weeks!!! It's anything goes theme with the option technique being whatever you choose. I chose to use another section from a full sheet I did of acrylic paint dabbing using 3 hues (pink, blue, and purple) topped with some gold glitter tempera paint dabbing. This was done this summer with still about 60% remaining of the painted white cardstock sheet.  

I've also used a white glitter decorative tape, a white dazzle/sticker "Thanks", white enamel dots, and a gold rose die-cut for embellishment accents. 

Thanks card=


 some design notes and vendors:

1. another technique is the pink cardstock was distressed

2. the white "thanks" dazzle is from Paper Wishes website

3. the white enamel dots are from Craft Consortium

4. the gold rose die-cut, acrylic paints, and tempera paint were purchased at Dollar Tree during the past year or so

MIUCB DT Project for 1 September 2022

 Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog! It's time for the next challenge at Mix It Up challenge blog! Participants have 6 weeks to enter Sept 1- Oct 15. The theme is Anything Goes with a technique option of smooshing (inks). This is my 2nd design team commitment for MIUCB!!!

I have to admit I haven't done much ink smooshing. It's easier to dab and smear in my opinion. For the backdrop of the stamped sentiment, I applied gray, lime green, pine green, and aqua onto a plastic bowl, spritzed with water, then pressed down the watercolor sketch paper onto the watered ink. This was only 1 application. The sketch paper is thin so I stopped with the one time. I used a circle stencil to trace my shape to fit the lime green scalloped circle that had been in my stash scraps for a long time. 

The olive green patterned paper triangle had also been in stash scraps for maybe 2 years!!! The color hues almost fit an analogous color scheme. Another old stash item are the strips of a long border sticker on the right side. The newest items are the butterflies and then the ribbon 'tape' of light blue with tiny white dots. 

Butterflies have landed slimline card (about 4 1/8" x 7 1/4")=

 Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog! My heart is happy to share some easy ocean seaside themed cards using wood die-cuts from Dollar Tree!!! YES! I will be showing 1 card with a sailboat and another with a seahorse. 

MTTC's #487 theme has a bit of flex for craft artisans. It can be beachside or it can be underwater or on the water. Ocean or Sea-worthy. July 29-August 11, 2022 with start and end times on these dates at 12am CT/Chicago or 6am UK.

Design Inspiration Project #1 features a wood sailboat colored and glitter painted=


I like the boat being in its faux water setting (blue glitter decorative tape and the muted green with white flecks cardstock)!!!!


Some of the credits: (1) sailboat wood die-cut = Dollar Tree; (2) camping/canoe symbols print cardstock = Lake Life paper pad; (3) rust print, dots, muted green with tiny white flecks cardstocks and the floral die-cut ephemera along with the white card base = Simple Stories card kit; blue glitter decorative and the great adventure sticker are from my stash.

*****

Design Team Commitment #2 featuring a wooden seahorse colored and glitter painted=




Some credits: (1) bold blue glossy cardstock panel on the left is recycled packaging; (2) cork 'ribbon' was bought at Dollar Tree as was the plain wood seahorse; (3) tropical palm leaf with flowers die-cut ephemera is from .....; and (4) postcard and island die-cut ephemera and the white cardstock base card are from Simple Stories' card kit "Wish You Were Here".

8 July 2022 MTTCC #38 Theme is Snow Globes Christmas Cards DT project

 Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog!! My heart got overjoyed when I spotted this snow globe die-cut and the navy blue snowflake patterned cardstock from Pink Paislee's Together For Christmas (2019). 

But more details later. This posting showcases cards made for my design team commitment with My Time To Craft Christmas challenge blog. Starting July 8, 2022 the topic challenge #38 is Snow Globes. This was suggested by another DT member and I thought it would be a good one for us to try. Luckily I came across this "Joy To The World" one while searching my stash of winter holiday themed supplies!

Card #1: If We Can Only Shake To Fill The World With Joy Christmas card=



Gold tempera paint was applied to the light blue cardstock top and bottom sections. The gold mirror foil scrap piece came like that in an assortment package. I apologize for not checking the cuts but I like how it copies the gold from the globe base and the word "world". 

Silver with blue metallic snowflake dazzles from Paper Wishes website were scattered around the card. Blue glitter decorative tape helped to create a 'table surface' skewed line for the globe to sit on. The light kraft flat card base with matching envelope were bought at The Paper Source website. Overall, simply lovely. 

Card #2= Cozy inside the snow globe Christmas card:


Most of the card elements are also from Pink Paislee's Together at Christmas collection. The flat taupe card case with a matching envelope are from Paper Source. The brown glitter deer stickers, aqua green cardstock, and black with kraft checked paper are old stash items. Note: the bottom two rows were cut from the bottom of a sheet with cut-apart elements that included the little snow globe card and I just taped them to the bottom edge of the top half of a sheet from the paper pad to fill the space. Voila'!

Shades of Blue Scriptural Encouragement Card

 Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog! I was so happy to have some late night crafty fun about 9 hours and even more so to craft an extra that is not for a DT commitment. I've had 1 card started for several days and just need to get another crafting session in very soon to get that one done. Many more that I need to get started on as well. 

This featured card is on a flat denim blue colored cardstock base that has a matching envelope (Darice) with 2 scrap pieces and a printed Scripture card. I didn't check to see if it was the same size as a business name card or as an ATC. It was received as a gifted extra over a year ago. Three aqua pearl gems and a washi tape version flower petals clustered together for the accents. All chosen for having shades of blue.
