Mixed Media Morsels - March

 Mixed Media Morsels altered cards (MMM)

stamps used:  Stampin' Up


My MMM altered card for March 2022 is finally done.  Took me awhile to decide what I wanted to do for this month.  As you can read in the description, the main theme was sweet, that was tough for me.  I ended up using two napkins (stars and flowers), then it hit me when I glued on the napkin flower ... a sweet hummingbird gathering his nectar.  

You can see past MMM altered cards for January 2022 here, and February 2022 here.

Thanks for stopping by and please come back soon.

Mixed Media Morsels #4

 Mixed Media Morsels #4


For my #4 MMM altered playing card, I kept it simple with some old stamps from my collection.  The little clusters of grapes is a Hot Potato stamp ... and yes, it is so old it is on wood.  The flower is from Endless Creations, which is also a wood mounted stamp.  It's hard to see in this picture but I did watercolor the three flowers ... that was the technique for this card.  Others things to do were use a security envelope ... done ... and a tag ... done ... add fruit/vegetable ... done.

If you want to see my first three MMM altered playing cards, just type MMM playing cards or Mixed Media Morsels in the search box.

MMM altered cards #5

 Mixed Media Morsels #5


I went a little weird for my MMM #5 because, I found this picture in my collection of collage papers.  I have started to use them up since I have had them for many years!  It's time to bring them out to play.  Vintage theme was easy I just added a piece of my tea dyed paper and edged everything with distress vintage photo ink.  Found a corrugated tag in my stash and done.

Mixed Media Morsel altered playing card

Mixed Media Morsel Altered playing card


The last one of the year!  Yes, I made it through a whole year making these MMM altered playing cards.

For this one I stamped the pocket watch (old stamp on wood), which I placed into the corner angled pocket.  See the theme here ... time and pockets.  I found some old blue denim looking "fabric" paper, so I used it for the background, and the pocket. 

I enjoyed doing this mixed media project all year.

Mixed Media Morsels #6

 Mixed Media Morsels #6 


Hard to believe we are half way through these altered playing cards.  This month was easy because, I went into my stash of gel plate prints that I die cut.  The little shells are from a Stampin' Up stamp set.  I stamped and fussy cut the little seashells then, added a little color with a marker.  The seashell is adhered to the tab, which has texture from an embossing folder ... as is the background piece.

See you here next month for another MMM altered playing card.

Thanks for stopping by and come back again soon.

Mixed Media Morsels altered playing card #2

 Mixed Media Morsels altered playing cards #2


This the second Mixed Media Morsels altered playing card or MMM for short.  You can click on the pic to make it larger to see all the prompts for this month's card. I used SU Whale Done stamp set and punch.  For me this is just a fun challenge, that is only once a month, so it is not overwhelming.
The group that is doing this challenge is Mixed Media Morsels on facebook.  You can find all the details there if you are interested in joining.
