No Place Like Home

The Sunday Postcard Art Challenge is one I've been meaning to enter for a while now and finally have! The theme this week is No Place like home and must be no bigger than 6 x 4" in size.

I created this first by applying Distress Ink in Mustard Seed and Peeled Paint using Cut N Dry Foam. The PaperArtsy houses were stamped and embossed with WOW Black Glint Powder onto watercoloured card that had been sprayed with Glimmer Mists. The heart was created by using the Direct to Paper technique again using Distress Inks. Finally I added the text using a stamp from WOW Embossing Powder.

I am also entering this card into the following challenges :

Ali Craft - Anything Goes

Tag with a Face

There are two challenges this week asking for tags - Tag Tuesday with the theme of using a face and Simon Says Stamp - A Tag. I created the background for this tag using watercolour card and Glimmer Mists. I then stamped with Versamark ink and embossed with silver embossing powder. This powder is from Papermania and I love it as it gives such a metallic shine. The face I created with air drying clay and a mould from Crafty Notions. When it had dried I painted it with Stamps Away Mica Paint.
