SAF:Sprinkle of Salt Techniques

For the salt technique I used regular Prang watercolor paints and course kosher salt. After my card front was finished and dry I die cut it before attaching with foam tape to a 5.25" square card base.

SAF: Mixing Mists to Match

For the misting challenge, I used a mask to mist a chevron pattern as well as misting a white Heidi Swapp butterfly to add on. 

I also colored some clear rhinestones with a copic marker to match.

PTI August Blog Hop!

Hello! Short break from posting SAF projects to post my blog hop project!

I chose the last color/sketch combo which has diagonal stripes and a neutral color palette.

Here's my finished card:

I used BB:Super Stripes for the stripes and Happy Hexagons for the sentiment and striped hexagon. To hold the twine in place I punched a tone half circle from the edge of my side and bottom where I wanted it to sit.

I'm just catching up on posting my SAF projects due to technical difficulties so stop back soon for those! :)

SAF-Rolled Dough Designs

For this challenge I used the featherlight clay just rolled out plain and left to dry overnight.

I took my piece of thin dry clay and die cut the triangles, than stamped with the coordinating stamps.

Before glueing my stamped die cuts to the card base I stamped & embossed the sentiment in white. To add a little bling, I colored some clear rhinestones with copics.

Off to post #4!

SAF Tea Staining Techniques

I'm back with my second project of the day, tea staining techniques. For my project I used different felt colors which were tea dyed in black tea as well as crocheted ribbon that was dyed as well.

Here is my finished card:

I just love how these leaves for the turkey feathers look in all the soft colors!

I used the gobble gobble stamp to stamp the entire card front then cut melon berry for a banner to put my turkey on. The little felt heart on his chest just makes him even sweeter!

Off to challenge #3!

SAF Breakfast Bake & Take

I've got my first SAF card completed! Yay! :) The first challenge of the day was to choose one of the posted color combos and one of the sketches and go from there. I decided to use the Fancy Folk Art stamp set and these:

And here is my finished card:

I packed super light today so I don't have any embellishments with me besides some clear rhinestones so I dressed them up with copics to match the colors of the challenge. 

That large image is so fun to color and a perfect way to put all the colors from the challenge together!

For the sentiment, I just cut a strip of paper and folded and cut it for the banner.

Time to work on challenge #2! Stop by again soon!
