yes, I played with the Categories at Craft Roulette on May 16, 2025

 The categories were:

Project 4 Bar Card (3 1/2" X 4 7/8" card) This card is about that size
Colors: Craft Store Loads of colors
Element: Sew(s)(ing)/Sewn  Stitched die cut
Random: Stencil - The Artists Collection - stencils used for vase & brushes

This is the first time I've used the Distress Oxides on something like this and I love the way this turned out.  Just select colors that you have.  I used Wild Honey around the edges of the vase, then brushed Squeezed Lemonade all over it and I felt it still needed something else.  I added Fired Brick over the edges, lightly brushed with yellow and liked what I saw. .I've never used the stencils in this set or I think the rest of the set, but I think I will have to try the rest now.

Supplies:
Altenew An Artist's Collection  stamps, dies & stencils (unsure if entire set is available)
My Favorite Things Die namices Stitched Oval STAX for the sentiment
Distress Oxide Inks Candied Apple, Fired Brick, Fossilized Amber, Iced Spruce, Salty Ocean, Squeezed Lemonade, Vintage Photo, Wild Honey &Worn Lipstick
Waffle Flower Shader 1+ double ended brushes
Altenew Enamel Dots - Fall Harvest
Vagabond die cut machine
