Hello! It's my turn over at ArtStacks today and I've made an art journal page using Deb Weiers' new Wonky Faces and Wonky Backgrounds stacks. I love Deb's wacky, wonky designs.

It's Time for a Daydream!
Welcome back!
The Mini Challenge at More Than Words is running for a whole month to celebrate our 150th challenge! The word to use on your card, tag, ATC or postcard this month is DAYDREAM.
I made a tag:
I used papers from The Homemaker stack over at ArtStacks. This stack is a bit of a fave of mine!

Monochromatic and Kraft!
Hello!
The new challenge at Kraft Plus this month is Monochromatic. I rummaged through my new Deb Weiers papers and found this cool dude in an orange shirt. There's also a very cool background on translucent paper that is mostly orange so I went with that. It wasn't until after I finished the page that I realised how many other colours are on that background too. Whoops!
I hope you can join in the challenge this month. You can find it here.
Happy creating!

Enchanting at More Than Words
Hello there!
The new challenge at More Than Words is to be inspired by the word Enchanting and to use Botanicals on your art journal page.
At first I couldn't think what to use for the Botanicals part of the challenge but then I remembered that ArtStacks have some stunning botanical pictures in some of 'The Homemaker' stacks - on 94-year-old paper! I used this stack to make my page about how Enchanting old books are.
I highlighted the 94-year-old paper:

3 Cards in 3 Steps
Hi there. I forgot to post this one previously! I made these three bright and cheery cards in just three simple steps using rainbows from Lisa Oxley’s Bright & Bold stack.
Card 1
Step 1 – Stamp Happy Birthday sentiment multiple times over the page making one a different colour.
Step 2 – Add one of Lisa’s rainbows.
Step 3 – Draw a border around the card including a small heart.
Card 2
Step 1 – Cut some Hearts paper from Lisa’s Bright & Bold stack to fit the card, ink the edges and adhere to card front.
Step 2 – Add one of Lisa’s rainbows.
Step 3 – Swipe a bit of gesso behind the title, let it dry then adhere a title sticker on top.
Card 3
Step 1 – Add spatters to the background.
Step 2 – Add one of Lisa’s rainbows and journal around the outside of it.
Step 3 – Add a sentiment and doodle a border, including a sun in one corner.
The hearts paper and the rainbows are all from Lisa’s Bright & Bold stack. You can find it here.
I hope you can use these as inspiration to make your own fun cards!

Ocean & Splatters
It's the first of the month and you know what that means! Yes - the new challenge is up at More Than Words. This month you have to be inspired by the word Ocean and use Splatters on your art journal page. I found a wonderful quote online and used that:
I was in a textural mood so I added lots of cool textures to the cluster on the left then topped it with one of Lisa Oxley's hearts from ArtStacks.
