Rox used a Tim Holtz Idea-ology Snapshot, which she also distressed with ink and sprays. She then added text using a Tim Holtz Tidbits Stamp Set. She added some Tim Holtz Idea-ology Cello Sticker Tape and a Tim Holtz Small Talk Sentiment Sticker. She machine stitched a border around the card and layered onto a card base to finish. 

Andrea thinks bags are a great way to transport things, so she decorated this Small Brown Kraft Paper Bag with a Spring theme. The cute little bird is from Tracy Evans’ Quirky Birds stamp set. The patterns in the background and on the branch’s leaves are made with Tim Holtz’s Glitch 1 and Documented stamp sets.

Anna-Karin made an art journal page with the boat from Tim Holtz Artful Voyage as her focal point. The boat was masked with Simon Says Stamp Masking Paper and the background was inked with Distress Ink. The circles in the background come from Simon Says Stamp Mix and Match Circles Stencil.

Barbara took a dip into the past by choosing a Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous stamp set, Air Travel CMS 102, to decorate her March Memoridex. To color it she chose Paper Artsy Mattint Fresco Tint, two colors from Simon Says Stamp Premium Dye Ink Pads Bundle. She added the little airplane cut with the Sizzix die for Tim Holtz, World Travel.

Emma created a Stampers Anonymous Etcetera Panel with a difference as she framed the panel using Bracket and Pinked Etcetera Trims. She layered various idea-ology pieces including Postmarked Stickers, Paper Dolls and Poses, Memoir Ephemera and Paper Strips to take you on a global journey.

Kath decorated a travel journal cover using Tim Holtz Idea-ology French Industrial 8″ x 8″ Vault 2025 Paper Stash, Archives Collage Papers, Cello Sticker Tape and Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous Vintage Auto stamp set.

Macarena decided to take a flight with Lady Aviator using Stamperia Sir Vagabond Aviator collection and adding a bit of energy with Tim Holtz Ranger Distress Paints to the background and the pictures. Doesn’t Lubmerjack Plaid look lovely on her lips?

Maura played with her new Stamperia Create Happiness Art Journal this week. She created her travel scene using Stamperia’s Art of Traveling 8×8 papers and Art of Traveling Ephemera, and added some interest to the background with Simon Says Stamp’s Grid Stencil.

Meihsia was inspired to create a mixed media tag using Stamperia Sea Land 8×8 Paper on the background, and decorated it with Tim Holtz Sizzix Vault World Travel Thinlits Dies and Tim Holtz idea-ology MACHINERY HEADS.

Zoey used Tim Holtz Sizzix Vault World Travel Thinlits Dies to decorate her tag. For her background she used Distress Spray Stain + Distress Oxide Spray and as embellisments she used Snapshot and die cuts pieces using the Collector die set.

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!

A BIT O’ GREEN

Rox used a Tim Holtz Floral Trims Cling Stamp Set and Distress Inks for the background. She used a Dina Wakleys Pocket Circles Stamp Set, stamped and cut the images and adhered in place. I also added a retired Tim Holtz Impresslits to add the shamrock, layering it with foam mounts. She added some Tim Holtz Ephemera Snippets and Rub-Ons and machine stitched the edges to finish.

Andrea made a shamrock out of hearts using Honey Bee’s Heart Hugs die set. She used Memory Box’s Fringed Scallop Frame die set for the card itself and made the LUCKY sentiment using AALL & Create’s Letter Soup die set.

Anna-Karin made an art journal page with a whole lot of green. She really like monstera plants and the great shape of the leaves and used Simon Says Stamp Monstera die for the three leaves. The title was stamped with Tim Holtz Sign Painter set and die cut with the coordinating Simon Says Stamp Sign Painter dies.

Barbara created two tags using Simon Says Stamp Pawsitively Saturated Ink Pad SAGE and Ranger Distress Oxide Ink Pad Tattered rose. She chose two stencils from Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous, Shifters Mini Stencil Set 36 and Mini Stencil Set 10, for the backgrounds. The beautiful butterflies are from Simon Says Stamp Embossing Folder and Dies Fantasy Butterflies. For the center point she used Stampers Anonymous Spring Sprung Easter CMS084.

Kath created a card to celebrate St Patrick’s Day using Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous Curiosity Shop stamp set, the Simon Says Stamp Curiosity co-ordinating dies, Tim Holtz/Idea-ology Serendipity Collage Paper and Idea-ology Story Stick.

Macarena is waiting for Spring to come and made a card mixing green and yellow using Tim Holtz Abstract Florals as a focal point and Faded Type and Mr. Rabbit stamp sets for the background. For the greens she chose Peeled Paint Oxide, Mowed Lawn Oxide and Wicked Elixir Mica Stain.

Maura took a light touch with green this time in her Dyan Reavely Small Creative Journal. She created multiple layers with paint like Dina Wakley’s Lime Green acrylic, pink and green tissue paper, Seth Apter’s Paper Artsy Printed Tissue, and even a few stamped snowflakes using Simon Says Stamp’s Snowflake Season stamps.

Meihsia was inspired to create a birthday card using AALL & Create Purrfect Birthday A7 Clear to stamp the image, then colored it with Zig Kuretake Gansai Tambi 48 COLOR Set and added sentiments with Tim Holtz idea-ology SENTIMENTS Label Stickers.

Zoey used a bunch of greens in Distress Inks + Paint for her background. She also used Tim Holtz Curiosity Shop stamp set and the Simon Says Stamp Curiosity co-ordinating dies to decorate it!

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!
