Tim Holtz and Stampers Anonymous Curations Summer 2025 - Air Travel Encouragement Card
I had big plans when I first started working on this card. I was expecting to get up to some mixed media mischief, but I ended up deciding on a stamped collage and some fussy cutting in an unusual color palette, and I couldn't be happier.
The stamp from the I See Paris set got me started in creating the bacikground and then added in some images from the Air Travel set and a sentiment from the Just Thoughts set to inspire and encourage.

Simon Says Stamp - MAY 2025 Card Kit, BEAUTIFUL AND CURIOUS
Hello Lovelies! I have a pair of cards for you today from Simon Says Stamp's May 2025 Card Kit - Beautiful and Curious. I love that card kits make me try items that I don't use that often and for this month's kit, it's the Distress Crayons. After completing these two cards, I can definitely say I've been missing out on the Crayons! Each kit will come with 4 crayons and I've used mine to watercolor a bouquet for one card and create a fully colored background for the other.

Each isolated into its own layer, but harmonized by the monochromatic color scheme.
