<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Hello and a very quick post to share two cards I made a few weeks ago. The challenge at <a href="http://www.wherecreativitymeetsc9.com/ch15/">Where Creativity Meets C9</a> is Christmas. I don't have any Concord & 9th Christmas stamps (yet) but I pulled out all the stamps sets I have and started playing:</span><br />

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The background was created using the <i>Stripe Builder</i> stamp set, black on red card stock. Using a gold and black pen I added a few more stripes.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">For the wreath I used the <i>Painted Thank You</i> stamp set.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The background for this card was an experiment which didn't go according to plan so it ended in my unused project box. I thought it would be the perfect showcase for the lovely bold <i>hello </i>die (and the die cut letters have already been used on a second card). Don't you love it when you can make 2 cards from one die :)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">After I made this card I hopped over to <a href="http://www.djkardkreations.com/">Darnell's blog</a> and was so inspired by all the humorous cards she had made I just 'had' to make one last card (this was after I had stopped laughing... head over to her blog and you'll understand).</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I won't be linking this to the challenge.... it was just for fun! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I'm back to share two projects. First is an Art Journal Page using 2 (NBUS) stencils both from The Crafter's Workshop (<i>Sunflower</i> and <i>Art Is</i>), Brusho's and Distress Oxide Ink.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Once the sunflower had dried, I applied Distress Oxide to the background, placed the <i>Art Is </i>stencil on top and removed the ink with baby wipes.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">For continuity I used the same stencil on the layering journal page, added light sunflower stamped images and some washi to finish it off.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<i style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Art is just another way of expressing our innermost thoughts onto concrete media. Where form and function come together in beauty, color and shape. We put our feelings and experiences onto paper, canvas, surfaces of all kinds. Allowing ourselves to release and surrender to this all encompassing force. This need to register what was today what might be tomorrow. And what was yesterday and the day before that.</i></div>
