Krafty Chicks Challenge #818: Anything Goes (ATG) with a TWIST

  Happy Krafty Chicks Thursday to you!

Because April has a fifth Thursday, we have an ANYTHING GOES theme on the Krafty Chicks Challenge blog. One of the easiest challenges because you can have any theme you like. But this year, we've added a TWIST to our ATG challenges. In January we added an embossed element to our projects. This time, the TWIST is a COLOURED IMAGE. It can be a card, (fancy fold even), a treat package, home decor, or a scrapbook page. Literally ANYTHING GOES...with  COLOURING!

 #818 ANYTHING GOES

This time around I created an encouragement card using the Just Add Ink sketch #784 as inspiration. I did change the orientation. Although my focal elements did fit in portrait direction, I thought it looked better in landscape.

 I also thought, in light of the recent snow storm in Alberta, rubber boots were a fitting image to colour. I'm even throwing in some spring vibes with the pretty flowers. Now let's hope Mother Nature catches my drift. 

Products used

  • Stamp set: No Matter The Weather, Paper Pumpkin March 2020
  • Card Stock: Thick Basic White, Soft Sea Foam, Highland Heather
  • Ink Pads: Memento
  • Stampin' Blends: Highland Heather, Granny Apple Green, Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie
  • Accessories: purple sequins, Stitched Shape Circle dies, Stampin' Dimensionals

 

 

I like to keep the inside of the card and the envelope clean and simple with just a coordinating stamped image. 

Head on over to the Krafty Chicks Challenge Blog for more details about the challenge and for more inspiration for ANYTHING GOES week from the Design Team. There's even a place to upload your project at the end. I hope you play along with us and show us what's happening in your craft space.
