Terry  Hey there crafters outthere, I have made a card with the Lush stampset from Nikky, I just love butterflies and thought I would make a card with them, colored the background with waterpaint and the background stampset from Nikky, Colored the butterflies with waterpaint too and placed some sentiments from a stampset from Polkadoodles.

Lou: I've decided to play with the Belle Papillion big kahuna kit to create an album from scratch using lots of the papers, embellishments and stamps. I've aged the papers further with my inks and pan pastels. More details can be found on my blog HERE.

Terry: Hello crafters outthere. This week I bring you a card, it is not a card that we would like to make but it is part of life eh? So I started out with the first layer of Gesso and I worked with lots of PanPastels mixed with water, On top of that I rubbed some white Coarse on the background. When I finally was happy with the result I stamped a sentiment on the card and a few Poppy's. Hope I have given you some inspiration on making a few projects for the challenge. They are very simple to make and ready to go in a half an hour.

Some of the products that I worked with are:

Gesso
