SF&F Challenge 221

This was a challenge . Stamp background with acrylic block. Well I think if I stamp a bg it is generally with a block , so I wanted to do something original but nothing worked

First I tried ink directly on the block Trust me it was not good .

Then I used alcohol inks on the block  uh uh  I then tried to  die cut a flower on easy mount but the die wouldn't cut through It did however leave an imprint

So I trimmed around it with scissors and adhered it to the block

I am showing this stage so you can see the background before I add embellishments

The banner and lace butterfly is printed on the matt so I cut around it and slipped my bg under it  Added the embellishments and the saying from Pretty Pears MFP

Come to http://marksfinestpapers.blogspot.com and challenge yourself to try this

The stamp set that is up for grabs is Happy Easter

 

After I did the above I had success with the failure at the beginning  I used Dylusional inks on the block turned the cardstock face down and used the brayer I like the finished work I used the MFP Coneflower stamp set

 I used the mini set Gears to You and a Cherry Lynn dies ,
 the embellishment is Tim Holtz

Embossed buttons

Inspired by a button challenge I decided to do this card
I will not be in the challenge but thought you all might like my idea
And I will visit http://www.wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/
First I glued the buttons to the card stock
I let it dry over night  then used the embossing buddy
If you look too close or enlarge you will see that didn't work out so well
I applied the versamark embossing pad over all the buttons 
I used three EP powders one at a time
It takes at least three layers to get the coverage I like
Hope you try this sometime
