Estelle made a frame with a recycled canvas. She made the frame edges with a Stamperia Greek Borders Silicone Mold and Hot Glue. The scene was made with many Tim Holtz idea-ology Products, including a Paper Doll, Transparent Wings and Transparent Layers.

Andrea added wings to this wonderfully quirky image from Kate Crane’s KC006 stamp set. The tag is made from Gina K Designs’ Beautiful Bookmarks die set and the pops of plaid are courtesy of Doodlebug’s Party Plaid washi tape.

Anna-Karin made a Mother’s Day card with butterflies. She used Simon Says Stamp Mandala Blossoms for the butterflies. The shaped panels were die cut with Simon Says Stamp Petal Tipped Labels and the sentiments come from Simon Says Stamp Mother’s Day. They are all from the new You Are My Favorite Release.

Barbara made a bee-inspired tag. She chose the Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Brush Hex stencil for the background and used it with Ranger Ink Distress Spritz Fossilized Amber and Spiced Marmalade. The mini clipboard in the center is from the Sizzix Vault Noteworthy Thinlits Dies and the bee is from the Funky Insects Thinlits Dies.

Kath is looking forward to Summer, the garden bursting into bloom and the return of the busy Bumble Bees collecting pollen from dawn to dusk. She used Tim Holtz/Sizzix Vault Floristry Sidekick Side Order, Vault Edges Thinlits and Stampers Anonymous Entomology stamp set and Sizzix Entomology Framelits to create her card.

Macarena used this lovely huge butterfly from Tim Holtz Sizzix Perspective Buterfly die and layered it to give more dimension. She placed it on a contrasting black background Tim Holtz 5×7 Black Woodgrain Cardstock Ranger.

Maura created a mixed media tag in hues of blues using a Tim Holtz Medium Etcetera Tag, Tim Holtz Perspective Butterfly die, and layered marks and designs with stencils like Seth Apter’s Zig Zag stencil.

Meihsia was inspired to create a mixed media tag using Stamperia Shabby Rose 8×8 Paper on the background, and decorated it with Tim Holtz idea-ology Organic Layers and Tim Holtz idea-ology Quote Chip Labels.

Zoey used Distress Spray Stain and DIstress Oxide Spray for her background. She added texture through the Script Stencil and used Papillon Stamp to add the butterflies!

So now it’s YOUR turn to get out your inks, paints and all things arty and start creating! We are looking forward to seeing what you make!

Barbara loves having fun with stencils! She created a card using two stencils: Brutus Monroe Linked Slimline and Stampers Anonymous Fractured Mini version set 56. She chose Ranger Distress Oxide Ink pads to color her card. The flower is from the Tim Holtz Collection stamp set Abstract Florals matched with Simon Says Stamp Abstract Florals Wafer Dies.

Macarena made a colorfull and bright card adding Brutus Monroe Gilded Metallic Aqua Pigments on the wings of Tim Holtz Sizzix Tattered Butterfly die. She built the background with Hero Arts Nesting Rounded Rectangles Infinity dies and Stamperia Alphabet Media stencil.

Maura was inspired by her brother’s dog-themed birthday card to create an art journal spread. She used a Brutus Monroe’s Pack )f Dogs Stamp Set, a Pennant Mixed Media Stencil and a Playful Patterns Paper Pad.

Meihsia was inspired to create an art journal page using Brutus Monroe Under the Big Top Mixed Media Stencil and Ranger Dylusions Shimmer Spray Bundle Of 6 on the background, and decorated it with Tim Holtz idea-ology PAPER DOLLS PORTRAiTS and Tim Holtz idea-ology Clippings Sticker Book.
