Title: INK17 Hangover Week
Post by: howdyheidi on October 23, 2017, 03:02:12 PM
Cindi and I are doing an Informal Hangover week.  I hope that if you complete some challenges that you missed, that you will post them in the gallery and the appropriate thread to share them! I have 2 left to do.  I will be watching to see if other people post any as well!

Thanks for starting a thread Heidi!  Just the motivation I need to keep stamping!

Today I got to browsing around our gallery and guess what I found?  Mirror image stamping that I had done in response to a challenge offered by Daniel!  His technique used freezer paper to transfer the image.  No wonder he liked that challenge!

Oh, I have a vague memory of the freezer paper!

LOL Cindi! I didn't remember offering a mirror stamping challenge, but I certainly do like pcfp. It has lots of craft uses.
I didn't have any to use during INK17 tho.

The plastic sheet from my stamps worked better then other thing I had used in the past.
I remember doing a method of transferring the stamping with the back of a clear stamp.
Also from Daniel.

I'd forgotten about using the back of clear stamps as a reversing tool, Sheila.
What's funny is that I was fooling around with stamping the back of some clear stamps yesterday . ;D

Here is a link (http://www.duhnproductions.com/forum/index.php?topic=718.0) to the challenge from August 2015!

Thanks, Cindi! I located my project for that challenge and I don’t remember making it!  I am surprised!  It was pretty simplistic, which is probably why I had trouble starting this challenge!

I thought it would be fun to look back!

Today I made one more card from one of my Tarnished backgrounds while all of those supplies were still out.

Thank You (http://www.duhnproductions.com/Pics/displayimage.php?album=lastup&cat=0&pid=3658#top_display_media)

Next will be Re-Leaf, I promise!

Hooray!  I finished the What a Releaf challenge.  In a big way!  Lots and lots of leaves ...

Happy Thanksgiving (http://www.duhnproductions.com/Pics/displayimage.php?album=lastup&cat=0&pid=3659#top_display_media)

Thanks Heidi!  I linked to your original challenge thread too.

Cindi, I loved your card so much I tried to case it.  Here I used Gina K Dark Chocolate ink.  However, I am unhappy with my blue color, I want your ink!!!  Maybe the grass is always greener (or bluer, or browner) on the other side?

Haha!  I do love your dark chocolate ink!

My blue is Distress Broken China.  I photographed at night.  Just realized looking at the photo this morning that it looks like I used a vanilla card base but it's actually white. 

I really like your idea to use acorns instead of dots O0

Isn't it a nice layout?  You're right, it would work for lots of stamps.  We should make it a challenge.  I think I will!

Seriously, Broken China!!!?  Shoot, I didn’t even think of looking at my distress inks!!!!  Now I feel silly.   :(

Anyhow, I am glad you will make it a challenge. I would like to work with it more.

I colored up the sunflower digi!  It is a great image and easy to color!

haha!  Yes, broken china!  I put it in my gallery description.  Silly  :idiot2: !  I guess you didn't read the fine print?

I do apologize for the photo.

No I sometimes overanalyze but I also sometimes skip over the obvious.  Both are bad habits.

Now that it's daylight, and I'm awake, that photo is really bothering me!  I tried to change it in the gallery, but it won't let me change that, I'd have to add a whole new entry, so I will attach it here and put it in the challenge thread I will start in a few minutes.  Phew, now that was a run-on sentence!

Here's what it should look like.  I went outside.

The card is so much prettier in natural lighting!

Thanks Heidi and Cindi for the extra motivation to complete my tarnished card this week.  I appreciate the extra kick to get it done since I must move on to some other household essentials.


Here is my card: (http://www.duhnproductions.com/Pics/displayimage.php?pid=3673&message_id=1394dba55712dfd6533dad55ef003544&message_icon=info#cpgMessageBlock)

Jan, your card is stunning!  So glad that you had the motivation to get it done, because it is fabulous!

Yes, Jan, your Tarnished card is gorgeous!

This card (http://www.duhnproductions.com/Pics/displayimage.php?album=lastup&cat=0&pid=3674#top_display_media) is a stretch for the Bingo Twist.  I hoped to make a more "Fall" card, but I think this is as close as I am going to get with Halloween.  (Running out of time!)  The faux textured metal technique that I discovered during Jan's perfect pearls challenge is becoming a favorite.
