For today’s hop, there are giveaways on each stop so be sure to leave a comment on each blog for a chance to win a stamp set of choice from our new release! You have until Monday, October 8 at 11:59pm EST to get those comments in….
I have a few cards to share with you today! The first one uses the gorgeous Gardenia Wishes stamp set. I know all the Gardenia’s I’ve ever had in my yard were white. But, who says we have to follow the rules in cardmaking…. I love these colors together. This stamp set also has a coordinating die, but I chose to hand cut out the border and then pop it up to a card base.
I made the card base with some Glitter Glaze and a stencil, 🙂
My next card features the Woodland Print Stamp set. This set actually has TWO 6×8 stamp sets included to create beautiful floral cluster frames. To see the video on how these sets/images layer together, check out Effie’s video by clicking HERE!
Using the MISTI stamping tool really made creating this card take no time at all! You can easily mass product this with the same colors or mix it up and make different colors for each card! I LOVE THE BOLD SENTIMENT. You can also use some of the single images to create your own cluster of florals! The sky is the limit.
I kept this post short and sweet because there are a lot of talented hoppers for you to see! Speaking of, the next person on the hop is CHRIS DAYTON! If you have any questions on how these cards were made, just drop me a comment below! Have an awesome day!
