TRANSFORMATION TUESDAY 

CHALLENGE #17

I am joining this week's Transformation Tuesday challenge with
Lexi Daly as she takes her box card from Stamp-A-Faire and transforms it with hashtags and emojis!

You can see her video and both of her fun Pop Up boxes HERE.

I wanted this sympathy card to look a little 'softer' and by changing out the turquoise panel  with a white one and replacing the green leaves with grey ~ oh and I did add a touch of Wink of Stella to the Rosie Posie,  I think I accomplished my mission.

Create a journal project.  You can choose to re-create the exact project from Heather's video or design your own using the same concepts. 

My journal will be a gift for a friend who loves her garden.  
She can write on the pretty flower themed pages or paste photos of the posies she plants from the seeds I will send along with the journal.

SAF 2018 - Pop Up Card

The Challenge:
Create a pop-up card project.  You can choose to re-create the exact project from Lexi's video or design your own using the same concepts. 

Oh my, what a cute project!  I didn't think I would have the time to make this sweet little pop up garden and the photo was taken on my patio in the dark of night 😄 but, here it is. 
I will definitely try this again~ Thanks Lexi for this fun technique for a card and your awesome How-To video! 
I used the die cut flowers from Song Birds and the grass is Martha Stewart's punch.  The hello is from Swoosh and those 3-D butterflies are stickers.

SAF 2018 - Felt Flower Project

The Challenge: 
Create a felt flower project.  You can choose to re-create the exact project from Lizzie's video or design your own using the same concepts. 

I don't have any of the flower or leaf dies Lizzie used to make her lovely felt flower wreath with, so I improvised by cutting some simple felt flowers/leaves form my glittery Butterflies from the Cover Plate:Butterfly to flutter around.  😊

My Card ~

 Had to use my Song Bird 😉 perched on top of the Branching Out leaves which are set on the 'Musical Notes' die cut from Darice.  
I backed the music notes with sticky paper like  Lexi showed us in her video HERE.  The glittery sparkley powder is pretty in real life, but it's cloudy and getting ready to rain at my house, so my photo doesn't reflect that well.

SAF 2018 - Plant Your Garden

The Challenge:
Create a project using 8 colors and involving stenciling, stamping, and die cutting.  You can choose to re-create the exact project from Dawn's video or design your own using the same concepts.

I made my own leaf stencil with Gran's Garden leaves and mixed blue and yellow inks to daub onto my card base for 1 color.  My die cut Brushed Blooms make up 6 colors and the Song Bird leaves die cut from brown card stock equal my 8th color here for Dawn's fun  "out-of-my-comfort-color-box" challenge.😁 
Actually, it's always wonderful to get the chance to CASE anything Dawn creates!

SAF 2018 - Water Color Project

The Challenge:
Create a watercolor project.  You can choose to re-create the exact project from Betsy's video or design your own using the same concepts.

Oh how I love Betsy's cards and isn't the SAF Poppy flower beautiful?   She has water-coloring down to PERFECTION! 

Always love the look that watercolor artists create and it sure was fun to try my hand at this lovely technique...
I need to take a few classes OR perhaps watch some of my very talented Blogland friends as you paint like the Masters!
