Happy Thursday, Groovy Groupies! Ready for a new challenge and some more amazing artwork from the Gurlz? Let’s go!
This week, your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to create a bookmark. Easy peasy – but the twist is to slap on some hardware! Any hardware will do – the more creative, the better!
Show us what you got! In the meantime, here are some incredible samples from the Groovy Gurlz! Is this group not just CRAZY talented?!!

Happy Thursday, Groovy Groupies! Got lots of fun stuff for you this week! First, we have some new releases, one that should remind you of a certain love triangle… or not! It is called What The Heart Wants. And another set of immortally inspired rubber sentiments! If you liked Otherworldly Loves, you will completely dig Simply Supernatural!
PLUS – we have a special Tweaked Technique from published art author, Roni Johnson! You can find other fabulous techniques on her blog, Ink Stains, or in her book! Be sure to check out her site for more info!!
NOW! On with the Tweaking… This is a tweak on the shaving cream technique, and it presents all sorts of insanely cool possibilities for texture and pattern! Give it a try – we CAN’T WAIT to see what you come up with!
Mousse Me! Supplies:
Mousse * Dye Reinker * White Cardstock * Heat Tool or Embossing Gun * Gloves (optional) * Scraper, Craft Spatula, Popsicle Stick (optional)
Instructions:
-
Spread a layer of mousse over your cardstock.
-
Add one drop of ink to the mousse. Spread around in circular motions with your fingers, scrapper, craft spatula, popsicle stick, etc. Don’t over blend.
-
Melt the mousse with a heat tool. You will notice as the mousse begins to melt the ink will be absorbed into the cardstock in some really cool patterns.
-
Repeat with 2nd and 3rd color(s) if desired.
Soooo… This week we are challenging you to try out the Mousse Me technique, (or another technique you choose to share!), and create your own background! It is so easy to get wrapped up in designing around your paper – make your paper fit your design!! We can’t wait to see what you come up with! Here are the Groovies with their amazing-as-always projects!

Ok, I apologize… that title seemed infinitely cooler in my head. HOWEVER! That does not detract from the excitement of the day! You can finally get your hands on these super cute stamps today at StampHappens! Tonya and Jen have put in hours and hours of hard work into these sets and it shows! SO cute!
I *love* this little girl – Cat Girl! Is she the most adorable tigress EVER? I agree. And… I got to use my animal print paper and ribbon! Rowr! 
This is so stinkin’ cute. I think she is my favorite WFK so far. Did I mention she is dang CUTE?! Cute, cute, CUTE!
Be sure to visit the other Sistahs for some other fab-tastic projects. I must say again – we have an amazing group of designers and I am off to go gawking myself! See you along the blog-hoppin’ trail!
