Hi Everyone!
I am here today to invite you to come and play along in another fun challenge at the Inspiration Journal!

This month’s challenge is called    In Disguise! "This should include using something and transforming it OR using an item in a way that is different. Before you start making something awesome be sure to pop over to the Inspiration Journal blog to check out what my super talented teamies have created to inspire you!

From all the submissions a random winner will be chosen and awarded $50 Emporium Dollars.  Woohoo!!! Remember, you may enter as many times as you wish to improve your chances so share, share, share! We can’t wait to see what you are creating.


Here's my sample - I used salt in a different way to create my snowy sky on this card;

I painted the sky using my Winsor Newton Watercolors (paynes gray. Ultramarine and Cobalt)

and before it had dried I sprinkled on coarse salt and let that dry with the paint. The saltgrain then soaks up the water and some of the paint next to it creating beautiful little blooms or crystals.

I then diecut a rectangle using Lawn Fawn's stitched rectangles and added some stamped and colored trees from Paper Smooches set;  before stamping the sentiment.
