Follow Your Dreams Mixed Media Tag

Hi my friends and happy Thursday to you! Golly, hard to believe that it's going to be April in a few days--time sure does fly, which is why I feel blessed for each and every moment! :) Here's another thing to feel thankful for--the marvelous and inspiring blog of Hels Sheridan, aka-Ink On My Fingers! I've only recently found Hels and she constantly delights her audience with not only awe inspiring projects, but fantastic tutorials, tips and secrets of the trade which have made her one of my favorite artists on the internet, not to mention a successful freelance demonstrator and craft teacher! Unfortunately (for me) she lives North of England so I don't expect to have the thrill of attending one of her classes anytime soon, but I truly enjoy and appreciate her nonetheless.
She does a challenge for anyone interested in participating and this challenge blog is unique in that there are no prizes, nor top choices for best cards chosen, but rather Hels challenges are meant only to inspire and share with others our common love for all things crafty :) I think it's so nice and refreshing! The Sunday Stamper challenge this week is very special, it's #300 and thus has a mega candy prize offer! The theme, Dream Lover! Hels' blog definitely inspires me to step out on the edge and try new things so here is my very altered dream lover tag....
I enjoyed this one because I just let loose with homemade texture paste, homemade shimmer fiber lace (from old curtain), painting on fabric scraps, food coloring to alter roses, berry sprigs and plastice flower piece, black velvet vine scraps, stencils, my new Gelatos, chalks and all around grunging up this once plain piece of white card stock--a mixed media wonderland lol!

Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you will join in this weeks DREAM challenge too! Have a happy, crafty and blessed day!
