Enjoy the Day

Hey there crafty friends!

Today I'm sharing inspiration for  A Place To Start  Challenge Blog's  March theme, "Anything Goes" with the optional twist of "Two by Two".   Create a project and for the twist, add anything in twos.  You can make two tags, two cards and even add two of the same embellishments.

 For 2022 I made the commitment to perform an "Act of Kindness" each month, consecutively through the year.  I compiled a list of twelve recipients, all on the list for various reasons.  The first 3 month's recipients have already received their surprise packages.  

For my March project at APTS, I made two ATC cards, using the same sentiment in two different ways.  These will accompany the April and May RAKs on the list.

I'm into the fourth month of  a "stash bust" challenge for 2022 and have successfully managed not to purchase any new craft items.  This is a true challenge for me, but I am having fun using stuff from my stash, be it new and not used or the leftovers from a collection.

The paper for these ATCs is from the Sensations collection by Pam Bray Designs.  I love every one of her amazing collections.  They are full of fabulous designs and brilliant colors.  However, the Sensations Collection is by far my favorite.  I've added more bricks to both cards using a stencil, embossing paste and oxide inks.  After the paste and inks set, I sprayed the cards with Shimmer Mist Sparkle.  The sentiment is from the Little Things Stamp Set by Pam Bray Designs also.  A few pearls are the finishing touch on both ATCs.

Stop by A Place To Start and share your project with us by linking to the March, Anything Goes with the Optional Twist of Two by Two.  You could be a "Rising Star"!

Thanks for stopping by.  
Hope to see you back again soon.

Vicki, I love the idea of doing "Act of Kindness." I am inspired to take up the challenge as well. Your ATCs are stunning! I like how you added dimensions to the images with the bricks. The rearrangement of the words in the sediment was brilliant. LOVE this! Samantha
