Smash Your Stash Journal Challenge

 Morning and last Saturday of the month means Smash your Stash journal challenge with Vicki from Stamped Smiles who does amazing work so hope you will check out her blog. The prompt this month was Bright/Happy colours. I used a stamp/sentiment  set from IndigoBlu  coloured with promarkers and silver/gold gel pen. Smooched inky background and Stencil Girl and Creative Expressions stencils. 



Please note if any challenges have digi images for prizes I am just playing for fun and support as I don't have a printer

Such a joyful burst of creativity, Carol—your inky background feels like pure play, and the silver and gold accents add such a lively shimmer. The way you've layered the stencils and sentiment gives the whole page a sense of movement and energy. That Pablo quote is a perfect touch, and the paint tubes made me smile. This page radiates happiness and artistic freedom!

This page is brilliant — I love how the brushes and paints look like they’ve just been lifted off your desk mid-creativity! The quotes fit perfectly too — really inspiring.
