Make It Monday #295 Z-Fold Card with Ashley

 

The first card I can post that I made at my friend's house.  I'm down in Portland for 9 days for SAF and just visiting and creating with my BFF.   This is the card I made for Ashley's MIM

I came down on Sunday afternoon to beat the Solar Eclipse traffic.  Ran into most of the traffic in Washington.  Got here about 7:40 pm.  We didn't create that night just visited and caught up.

And of course, we had to view the eclipse on Monday morning.  We drove about 20 minutes away and saw 100% of it but for only about 30-40 seconds.  And it was so awesome.  

So we got started crafting late and ran into problems with computers and getting me set up so we could both post without signing in or out.  So needless to say we are having to sign in and out, so if you get a comment that doesn't sound like one or the other of us chances are we didn't sign ourselves out.  Lol....

CAS Watercolour August 2017 using Salt

 

Another card for CAS Watercolour 

 

This was a small piece that I used salted water on and didn't think I could make anything out of it, but decided to cut a couple butterflies and it worked perfectly.

CAS Mix Up August Challenge using Alcohol Inks

 

Finally got a chance and some mojo to create another card with the some of the papers I created with Alcohol Inks.  I started out making this for CAS Watercolor, but the background wasn't right for the color of the butterfies with the salted technique.  So I looked through AI papers and thought this was perfect for the BG.

CAS Watercolour August Challenge

 

A card for CAS Watercolour 

 

I sponged, stamped, and used my Gasai Tambi paints and added table salt to my sun.

I think maybe I should have made the sun a little smaller.

CAS Mix Up August & Fusion Pastel Pencils

 

A second card for CAS Mix Up 

& a card for Fusion

 

I used both the sketch and the pastels colors.

This card was made with the alcohol inks using the ombre method and they turned out a little more muted.

Used PTI's Stylized Autumn for the leaves and some velum and Keep It Simply, Sympathy.

Oh my gosh it is so hot for us Washingtonians.  In the 90's for the next week or so.  Ugh.  So I am holed up in my air conditioned craft room and doing some crafting.  Yeah!!!!
