 Time to pick up the pace! We're having another speed round at As You See It #307 - with a "hobbies" theme! I did another hobby challenge recently, and I talked about my love of baking, so I knew this time I had to talking about the crafty bug, lol. Crafting With You is of course PERFECT for it, but how to play while keeping this in a speed challenge?? I have been all about the dies for this one until now, but then I saw this beauty by Sam Hammond Donald in the UK! The squiggle coloring idea was just what I needed, with my own twist, of course, lol. I really wanted to use this sentiment, and not quite so many images, AND, I wasn't sure I could scribble in Blends quite as artfully as she, lol, so I pulled some "blobs" from our recently retired Painted Poppies, and the slightly older Dressed to Impress. Just right! I picked my colors, and was off! Start to finish clocked at 5 minutes and 15 seconds - yes! So fun! I can't wait to see YOUR speedy creations for this one - meet you at the challenge! Crafting With You, Painted Poppies (retired 2023) & Dressed To Impress (retired 2022) Stamp Sets; Basic White & Basic Black CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, Daffodil Delight, Pool Party, Fresh Freesia & Lemon Lime Twist Inks; Fresh Freesia Tinsel Gems; #AYSI307.

Oh, the squiggle colouring is just perfect for a speed challenge - and it looks fabulous as well. I think you've managed to cover off quite a number of my hobbies as well in this card. :-)

Oh, Heather, this is just brilliant! Like I said, I wish I'd thought of it, since I used the same stamp set! It's great for speed stamping, but it looks amazing, thanks to that great pastel palette that you chose! 9/20/2023 01:00:35 pm
Heather I saw your card and immediately thought - I so wish I'd thought of that!! The colour blocks behind the tools are a clever way to add quick colour - such a fab card and you would never know it was such a speedy make, amazing! 9/23/2023 07:22:55 pm
Heather - I adore this card! What a great way to show off your hobby and use a technique that I rarely use - yet it really sets off your images to perfection! Fab!! Leave a Reply. |
