Christmas Card Challenges #34

It's time for this week's challenge over at Christmas Card Challenges. This week our Challenge theme is everybody's favorite "Anything Goes".  Get a head start on your Christmas cards and come join us this week. We now pick a weekly winner and honorable mentions! Thanks for stopping by!

I made a simple one layer card this week. A perfect card to make multiples of. I used PaperArtsy JOFY stamps and colored them with my new Zig Clean Color Real Brush Water color markers. I used some bright non-traditional colors to make it more fun. 

Unity Friends with Flair Friday

This is my Unity Stamp Company Friday Friends with Flair post. I'm still working in my mini journal from Faber-Castell Design Memory Craft. I used the back of another page that had some light stenciling on it and some splatters and marks from other projects on the page. I stamped the Heart with all the butterflies in Archival Ink and colored all the little butterflies in with my Clean Clear Real Brush Watercolor Markers. I tried to blend in a few colors on the bigger butterflies. I wanted the heart to stand out so when I finished coloring it, I rubbed pink and white metallic Gelatos on the background to lighten it so the butterfly would pop more. Finally, I stamped the sentiment. Both stamps are from the Everything Resides in Hope stamp kit from Unity Stamp Company. I also inked the edges lightly with the black archival ink.
