Dare To Get Dirty!

This week over at Splitcoaststampers we're into our favorite week of the year - Dare To Get Dirty! DTGD is a week of fun, challenges, and prizes for our Fan Club members at Splitcoaststampers - so much of our site content is free, but there are some special 'perks' and members-only content for paid members. Dare To Get Dirty is our annual "thank you!" to the members of our Fan Club. This year is the 15th anniversary of the event, so we are opening it to everyone! There are more than 40 challenges in the course of a week! It's a lot of fun behind the scenes, hosting the challenges and encouraging these sweet ladies as they jump in with us and see what it's like to get a little Dirty! If you'd like to join us, you can find all the info in the forum here! (If you're a Splitcoast Fan Club member, come see what we're doing in the challenge forum today! If not... why not?)

This challenge hasn't actually been posted yet, but I took a huge liberty with the wording and made it work for me - I can just say that the hostess was not expecting a beach card in her gallery! I used Karin markers to ink different areas of the stamp, then either misted the ink to stamp or blended out with a brush once the ink was down on the watercolor paper. I love the looseness of this type of stamping! 

This set is simply gorgeous any way it's used.You can find the set HERE!

I hope you're having a great week! I taught a colored pencil class Saturday and I'm still recovering from the sheer extroversion that required... there are lots of projects to do and catch up on this week, so I need to snap back quickly! By the way, I took a video of my class prep, so when I have time to collect my thoughts and content and do a voice over, that will all be an online class one day. These are the swatches using the techniques I shared for different animal textures! 

Cheers!
