Use It Tuesday Challenge #39

 

Hello blogger friends!

 

 

Are you ready to Use It Tuesday??? I know I am! This week is particularly easy.  The challenge is "anything goes" and I know you have a large stash to use up so start digging and find that special something that you have been hoarding forever and USE IT!!!

 

 

 For this Anything Goes challenge I picked a card kit that I had been hoarding holding onto since 2009!

I thought I loved it when I bought it but I later realized that I wasn't crazy about it.

 

 

I decided to get creative and cover up the one paper that I didn't like. There's nothing  gesso can't fix!

 

 

I started off with one thin layer of gesso. I didn't want to cover up, I just wanted to tone it down. Once that dried I used a stencil and spray ink for added texture. To finish it I randomly stamped all over the paper.

It's hard to see on the photos but 5 of the cards have  an acrylic shape on it, I made sure to use most of the kit so I wouldn't have too many left-overs.

 

 

And there you have it! I've got one less kit in my stash making me feel guilty for buying and not using!

 

I sure hope you are inspired to use some of your hoarded items. I would love to see what you come up with so be sure to link it up at Use It Tuesday
