I've been working on a new art project! A bunch of my scrappy peeps over at CropCircles and I are doing a puzzle piece swap. We each purchased a puzzle and sent a piece to each of the members in our group. We then alter each others piece in whatever way we wish and send them back to the owner . The altered pieces are then reassembled and Viola! We all end up with a unique piece of art filled with lovely little messages from our friends. Warning: LOTS of photos! So here are the pieces that I have done so far.... A pink Paislee rub on over Heartfelt Creation paper. Heartfelt Creation paper and Studio Calico stars painted with Smooch Awesome Stampendous metallic embossing powder { my new addiction thanks to KELLY KLAPSTEIN }on a wood piece. Awesome paint splatter stamp colored with Smooch instead of inks. Heartfelt Creation paper and Martha Stewart butterfly punch Stampin 'Up embosslit butterfly More Studio Calico wooden stars painted with Smooch Prima dancer charm and music note rub-ons by ????? Gabriella papers from Bo Bunny More Bo Bunny papers Can you guess that I did these three pieces at the same sitting? lol Bo Bunny again! Lots of clock stamps...largest one stamped using the Stampendous emboss powder again. This is one of the shabby colors in this line of Stampendous powders. Isn't it gorgeous??? Another in the metallic line of embossing powders...this one is called Hunter green And this is the last one that I have done so far... I looooove the pink shabby embossing powder...soooo pretty! I used a variety of stamped verses from several different sets including Unity Stamps, Inkadinkadoo,Tim Holtz and Maya Road. I am soooo anxious to get my puzzle pieces back from the girls! Can't wait to get my puzzle re- assembled and hanging on my craft room wall. I'll share that with you when it gets completed. Thanks for popping by today. Happy scrapping!

⭐️Stardog Puzzle Purse!💫 by e.k.mosley (Letter or Valentine) Origami This was my first time making a puzzle purse and I had so much fun painting each little picture on all the hidden folds. These beautiful little paper creations can be dated back to Japanese paper folding techniques called tatogami and origami from Japan’s Heian era (782-1185 CE). In Japan they were called Tato and used to hold small objects like buttons, stamps, needles, thread and other small bits and bobs. But when they started coming over to the west, people began drawing pictures on them and using them to write secret messages and love letters. The Victorian’s called them Puzzle Purses and were particularly fond of gifting them on Valentine’s Day. Today puzzle purses remain a fun way to send a magical letter to friends, family and loved one all year round, for all sorts of holidays and special occasions. I hope you enjoy folding your own Stardog Puzzle Purse to keep little treasures in. • Photos are of the original handprinted puzzle purse and the front and back of the digital files • Format - pdf download (and jpgs of front and back) • Pdf can be printed as many times as you wish and on any paper you like. It will print and fold well on standard printer paper but can also be printed on to heavier art papers (250gsm-300gsm) • Print either double sided or as two sheets and stick back to back. • To fold please look up instructions on how to fold a victorian puzzle purse.

So sorry for the delay in this week's Altered Puzzle Challenge. I became a Grandma last week and was back and forth to the hospital all week visiting my daughter in law, my daughter and my new grandchild. Meet my new grandbaby Sagen Lanay My daughter, grandbaby and me :) I also picked up a few extra hours at work this week, so it has been a busy, busy couple of weeks, sorry for the delay. We are onto week 3 of the Altered Puzzle Challenge Here are the links to the previous posts for this challenge Week 1 Week 2 Check out the previous week's if you are just beginning. Our Facebook group is here: Facebook Group this week I want to use some images that my artsy friend drew and sent to me. She is amazing!! For my first background I used some of Tim Holtz tissue paper and applied it to my background, directly over the gesso I just used glue stick for this Next I am using Dina Wakley's paint (you can use any paint) and I applied the lighter color over the entire puzzle piece Next I used a stencil, the darker color of paint and some distress glitter... (make sure your first background color is completely dry before moving on to this step) What I did is used a sponge and grabbed up some of the paint and using the sponge, dabbed the paint through the stencil onto my background... Next I removed the stencil and added some of the distress glitter in the same color as my paint I love how it came out, there is a little sparkle on my background here Let this completely dry While my background was drying I printed out my phrase (a Bible Verse) and colored the image I wanted to use with some copic markers I cut out my image and went back to my background I edged my piece with archival ink in a darker shade of blue and then I sealed it with Alene's collage pauge (they sell this at JoAnn's) you can use whatever you like to seal your piece but Alene's is what I like. I sealed it at this point because I want my glitter to stay onto that background and this way it will Next I added my phrase and image Here is my first piece: Again: my friend Terri Richardson drew my little man in the moon. For my next piece I started by using DecoArt acrylic paint to color my background white (setting it aside to completely dry) While that was drying I colored my image with copics again and then cutting out Once the background was dry I used black archival ink to edge it In order to get into those half circles, I took my foam off of my distress tool and folded it, like so: and lastly I added my flower and my phrase My phrases this week were printed with my home printer (again: Terri Richardson drew my flower) Here are my pieces together I just love the white background on the second piece, that was a good choice and I don't normally like plain white backgrounds but for this I did. Here are the pieces from week 2 and week 3 Have fun this week! Can't wait to see what you create!
