I also wonder if humidity plays a roll in the drying times.

I think so!  Often feels like we are in the humidity capital of the world!  It's been nicer now that the front blew through.

Yankee, I think your card will be perfect for an anniversary!

Here is my project for this challenge :  I am thinking I may stamp out the flowers again and have them wrap around the whole base instead of just in the front

This was fun to put together but I will have to say that mixing the glitter into the paste made such a mess and was hard to clean off the stencil, oh I forgot to add that too my list, I used the quilt pattern stencil on the body form

I don't dabble much at all in mixed media so I was definitely out of my comfort zone but this was so fun to do!

My modeling paste was dried up but I found some liquitex natural sand effects texture medium in my stash. This stuff was OLD! I was amazed it still worked!

Hi Sarah!

Here is my card.

As I mentioned in my gallery post ... if this doesn't qualify for your challenge just let me know and I will try again.   Not sure that it really stands out as a mixed media piece, but maybe together with the inking and stenciling in the background?  Don't be afraid to tell me if it doesn't.

I combined your challenge with LeighAnn's Stamp and Stencil challenge.

I used :

Media - Glass bead gel
Color - distress and archival inks (archival for stencil)
Embellishment - ribbon

Thanks for the fun challenge.  I'm not sure I had ever used my glass bead gel ... or long enough ago that I can't even remember!

Oh, and what do you think about trying to fix the flower petals?  They lost a few beads.  At first I thought maybe it happened during card construction but it also could have been when I used my stamp-a-ma-jig to stamp the bee.  I had to put it over the beads, because it wasn't stable over the ribbon either!  Ugh!

It's me again! 

I actually made this card first.

Again, if it's not mixed media enough, just let me know. 

Thanks for the push I needed to use some different embossing pastes that I've just been "storing"!

Media - Dreamweavers Glossy Red and Glossy Black embossing pastes
Color - Ranger distress ink blending and masking to create a scenic background
Embellishment - I was feeling a little sheepish about calling my die cut tag an embellishment so I added a clear gemstone to it, I promise!  It's just not in the pic.  If I get time before the fest ends I will take a new photo.

LeighAnn - your card is lovely.

Cindi - both your cards came out fantastic and they both count for the challenge.

Sorry it's taken me so long to announce the winner.  I assigned all of the entries a number and let Random.org pick the winner. 

And that winner is Stampwilly.

I have your address, April.  So I will send out your RAK later this week.

Thanks everyone for playing.
