So Hoppy Together Thank You card

This is the best Sale-a-bration ever!  Fun stamps, thinlets, and accessories can be earned with every $50 purchase from the Sale-a-bration catalog.  One of the stamp sets you can earn is the So Hoppy Together.  This stamp set features three very cute frogs which I had to get.

The card I created was inspired by the color challenge of Soft Sea Foam, Pool  Party and Highland Heather at Hand Stamped Sentiments.

I stamped the leaves and flower using the Tropical Chic Stamp set and used the Tropical Thinlits to die cut the leaves and fussy cut the flower.  The frog and dragonfly I stamped with Momento black, colored with a blender pen and ink pads then fussy cut the frog.  The sentiment is also from the Tropical Chic set.

Just a Note to LIFT your Spirits

I was inspired to create this card by the ‘Lift me Up’ bundle and the color challenge at Hand Stamped Sentiments of Pool Party, Calypso Coral and Smoky Slate.

Using the ‘Lift me Up’ bundle which includes the ‘Lift me up’ stamp set and ‘Up and Away’ thinlits dies was so easy to create the beautiful die cut hot air balloon and clouds with this set.

Although the color challenge was to use Pool Party, Calypso Coral and Smoky Slate, I used Flirty Flamingo and Blushing Bride to create an hombre effect on the balloon.

Emboss Resist Mixed Bunch Card

This week at Hand Stamped Sentiments we have a technique challenge for you – emboss resist.  This technique is lots of fun!  If you haven’t done it before, there’s a great tutorial and video on SCS.  For my card this week I used the Mixed Bunch stamp set and coordinating Blossom punch.  I stamped the flower images then heat embossed with clear embossing powder.  I added color with sponge daubers and embellished with basic rhinestones colored with Sharpies.  The sentiment is stamped with Versamark and Melon Mambo then heat embossed with clear.  I made a triple loop bow using the 1/2″ Daffodil Delight seam binding.
