BLOG HOP PERMALINK

What, exactly, does "Punky Style" mean for me? It means I stop concentrating on pre-printed paper/embellishments and start exploring acrylic paint and other more free form mixed media tools and techniques. It means I could make a page where I show some attitude and get away from the Mommy track for a while. It also means I use dark or neutral colors and moody prints if I want. Mostly, it's very liberating and great for moments of lost mojo.

Here is the sketch we used for Challenge 18:

I love how deceptively simple this is! I had a lot of fun with it. Now you go and try it!

Here is a card based on this sketch:

Just Because card

I would never mist a card or use white pen all over it- it's too "messy". Here I gave myself permission to do both and I love the result! I gotta say though- that Studio Calico Piglet Mister Huey is uncomfortably red- I may need to tone it down with some cream for the next try.

Here is a thank you note I sent along to a winner of one of my give-aways. I put this together in 4 minutes using only the scraps I had on my table from another project and I really like how it came off:

I FINALLY use some of my acrylic paint!
It goes really well with those Jillybean Soup corrugated pieces and K & Co die cut details.

Now go on and get hopping!  You'll love everything you see here:
