I have just returned from the most
AMAZING, EXHAUSTING, BEAUTIFUL vacation to Alaska,
one could ever wish for.
Not only were the sights good but the company was even better as I traveled
with my Aunt, Mom and Seeeester!!
Not only was I unplugged for almost 2 weeks.....
I didn't create one blessed thing!!
That combination can make for a
rather irritable girl.
Upon return home....there were the mounds of laundry,
house cleaning, computer work....
so this morning, I was about to clean up my work surface
and I decided to have a
create with what is on your work surface challenge...
so here it is....
my "misfits" tag!
Now....I am only allowed to use what is on my
crafting table....
I did pull out a pair of "Timmy" scissors
and his Tiny Attacher!!
Now the colors I had to work with...
Radiant Rain ~ Shimmering Mist
Teal Zircon
Butternut
Radiant Rain ~ Color Concentrate
Jasper Red
Probably wouldn't have normally chosen this color combo....
but that's what sooo fun about this challenge!
The twine was a bright pink....
I toned it down with a bit of Butternut Shimmering Mist.
I had some Viva Decor Crackle paint there also...
along with the cardboard tag that already
had a background created
with Precious Metal Effects Paint.
I randomly applied a layer of Base Coat for Porous Surfaces,
with my palette knife....good and messy like!
When dry....with the same palette knife I applied the
Viva Colour ~ Crackle Paint....
but decided to try something....
I sprinkled on some Meridian Blue Primary Elements...
spritzed it with a bit of
Gold Pearl Shimmering Mist.
REALLY like how it came out!!!
I just love the "Words" from Splash of Color....
you can say what you want!!
So I challenge YOU.....
What can you create with your misfits?????
Can't wait to hear from you.
