It’s time for the new monthly Anything Goes Challenge at the Crafts Dreamy Blog.
We also have a mood board to inspire you all. It is not a compulsion to use it:)!
Here’s an index card to inspire you all to play along
Sunshine in my soul
Today we’re here with a journal spread, spreading sunshine.
We’ve used Lindy’s Magicals- Bayou Boogie Gold, Hibiscus Rose, Peony Scarlet Red, Shakers- Yodelling Yellow, Oktoberfest Orange for our background. We’ve used AB Studio Stamps as well. We’ve used a photograph, a badge from Cuts 2 Luv, flowers from Prima Marketing and 49 Market for the focal.
We’d like to participate in the following challenges:
More Than Words September – We’ve used yellow in our background, as well as flowers. The word Sunshine is incorporated in the quote, photo, and the meaning of the page.
Mixed Media Place August Challenge– Inspired by the colours, the flowers, the cycle and incorporated it all on the page.

We have a fun new ATC Challenge on the Happy Little Stampers Blog.
Here’s a set of ATC to inspire you to play along.

Stored in my Studio- StencilGirl®
We are on the StencilGirl® Blog with a fun post. We have a great new theme- Stored in My Studio. We were excited because this gave us a chance to dig supplies from our studio and use them.
We have created a Burlap Mixed Media Canvas. We have a video tutorial for this project so you can get crafty while watching us.
We have used five StencilGirl® stencils, Trefoil Rieven Glyphs by Steven Skaggs (S491), Pixels by Rae Missigman (S509), Pomegranate Seeds Grape Apple Flower Mask by Valerie Sjodin (L577), Boho Butterflies stencil was by Gwen Lafleur (L629) and Paint Tin and Butterflies stencil by Cathy Taylor (L623)
We have used them for various layers with acrylic paint, sorbet dimensional paint, 3 D Matte Gel and Texture Pastes. We have also used the stencil not only for our backgrounds but also for the focal element.
We hope to have inspired you all to dig up things from your studio and create.

ATG- Crafts Dreamy
It’s time for the new Anything Goes Challenge at the Crafts Dreamy Blog.
We also have a mood board to inspire you. Feel free to be inspired and incorporate it in your creation, however, it’s not a compulsion.
Here’s a page to inspire you all to play along
Water
Today we have a new ATC Challenge on the Happy Little Stampers Blog.
I have created an ATC Card on this theme. I wanted to incorporate the imagery of surfing. I have used distress oxides on black cardstock on my background and then layered elements.
Looking forward to your participation!
Words
Today we have a new challenge at The Happy Little Stampers Blog- Mixed Media.
I have created a small journal page to inspire you all!
Do play along!
Intuitive Journaling
Today I’m sharing a Travellers Notebook Spread. A little art journaling using Lindy’s Products- Magical Shakers- Polka Purple, Yodelling Yellow; Magicals- Hibiscus Rose; Sprays- Bombshell Black, Hibiscus Rose and Tea Pot Purple along with the 7 Dots Studio Paint Chips Collection.
Today’s spread is for fun. To remind each one of us, that crafting and creating needn’t always be under pressure, for teams or for challenges, sometimes, one must create for pleasure and for the self. Anna(Finnabair) spoke about this with a recent page of hers, and Kate Palmer encouraged it further with on the Lindy’s Facebook Group!
