The Final Challenge at CC3C


The final challenge, Layering Stencil: Monoprint, bring us to the last technique in Tim Holtz's Compendium of Curiosities 3 book. It makes me sad to say goodbye to the challenges but I know that I'll keep up with the Curiosity  Crew through their blogs and on FB. They have provided amazing inspiration each challenge and I just want to say a big thank you.  Also to Linda Ledbetter for hosting all 34 challenges, now that's commitment!

It's not too late to get your autographed copy of Tim's Compendium of Curiosities 3 book on his blog. 


For my last project I decided on a tag because Tim seems kinda fond of 'em. ;)

A little close up of the Layering Stencil: Monoprint technique using Tim's Honeycomb stencil. In the upper left corner I stamped a quote, from the Classics #16 set, which fits perfectly with my final entry. 

 I had to use this gorgeous butterfly from the Limitations set. It was water colored with Distress Markers-seedless preserves, mowed lawn, squeezed lemonade, mustard see, broken china, spiced marmalade- and received a dusting of Clear Rock Candy Distress Glitter for some texture.

(Voyage stamp is from the Classics #1 set)
I have enjoyed every minute of my artful voyage with the Curiosity Crew.
Thanks Ladies!!!


Wonder when book #4 will be published? Can't wait!!


The final challenge is sponsored by The Funkie Junkie Boutique and Linda is generously offering a $25 gift certificate to the lucky CC3C winner. Thanks Linda!

Lisa...this is simply gorgeous. I so love your blended background. Your monoprint looks fantastic and I love that you did the beehive stencil with the butterfly. So pretty! This has a grungy feel to it but it is so sweet that you've masterfully managed to find that fine line of grunge and feminine beauty at the same time! Love your stamped sentiment and of course, your butterfly is THE PERFECT focal point for this tag. Thanks so much for being such a big part of the CC3C challenges. I've always loved seeing your challenge entries....always so beautifully done. And I also want to THANK YOU for all of the lovely comments you've left on my blog. They mean the world to me. <3 Candy

Fabulous, Lisa!! I commented on Facebook, but wanted to leave you some love here for this gorgeous tag you've created. You are on quite a creative roll there, my dear.
