STAMPlorations Color Blooms Blog Hop Linky Party

Here is my 2nd card for the STAMPlorations Color Blooms Blog Hop.

Also for STAMPlorations Anything Goes Challenge

After playing in the 1st Color Blooms Blog Hop I ordered Shery's Coloring Book that has 34 pages of Gorgeous Flowers to color with any medium.  I chose my Tim Holtz Distress Crayons to color one of the dahlia pages.  I loosely colored the flowers with my crayons smudging with my finger after coloring a few petals at a time.  I then cut out a 3 3/4" x 4 3/4" piece from my 8" x 10" coloring  book page.

I sprayed the page with Shimmery White spray.  Not only did the spray give the flowers a beautiful shiny shimmer,  but gave the flowers a pretty watercolor look.  So much prettier IRL..but isn't that always the case!

I mounted my piece when dry to a piece of SU Black Basic CS and then to a SU Whisper White Thick Card Base.  Added my STAMPlorations "Blooming Buds" by Dee sentiment and 2 NUVO Crystal Clear Drops..glittery white.

I plan on taking my coloring book on future trailer camping trips...what a fun and creative toy for evenings :-)

Enjoy...and Thank you for visiting and especially for your comments.  Hugs...

DTGD16nancylittrell Challenge Day 7

It is Dare to Get Dirty time at SCS, sure hope you can join us for the week long challenge, inspiration, and chatting fun! My card was a sampler for My DTGD16nancylittrell Challenge that starts today. You have to be a SCS Fan Club Member to join the challenge.  This Annual Challenge is a perk for being a paid member of SCS,  which helps with all their expenses. 

There are 5+ challenges a day from past and present Dirty Girls and runs through Saturday August 6th.  

This was my 1st attempt of making an entire card front using my Tim Holtz Distress Crayons.  Here is the Scrap Time Videos on How to use Tim Holtz Distress Crayons.  I followed the instructions exactly!  Lot so smudging fun on this card.

I recently received this TCW Joyful Sunflower Stencil from my girlfriend Bonnie Klass...thank you again Bonnie :-)  It was really fun with the crayons.  I have more ideas using this awesome stencil.  Stay tuned....

Please check out My SCS Gallery for all the rest of the details on this card. Happy stamping my SCS friends :-)
