We have a new collaboration staring over at A Blog Named Hero, and this is my first project. Come take a look.
Simon Says Stamp Favorite
We’ve got a fun challenge going on at A Blog Named Hero. It’s called “Favorite” which can be interpreted any way you like it. I refer to this as my “favorite stamp and die set that I had to have from Simon Says Stamp and I’ve finally used it after a year in my stash” card. This stamp set is so cute, the most darling dog and cat. I am 100% an animal lover and am so happy that I finally put this to good use.
It’s quite a simple card, but it uses my favorite things; kraft paper, embossing, copic coloring and vellum. Can’t go wrong with that combination. The only thing tricky here is that I used those enamel dots as “rivets” to cover my need to glue the vellum down to the card base. And I cut this card to four inches wide to the “pawesome” die cut would hang over the edge, yet still fit into a standard envelope.
Come on over to A Blog Named Hero and join us in the challenge. We’d love to see your favorite something! We’ve got a $25 gift certificate from Simon Says Stamp to give away to the winner!
Miss You
I’ve got a post over at A Blog Named Hero today. I did a new technique, at least to me, coloring with copics on vellum. Lovely outcome.
Clean and Simple Challenge
Today we’ve got a new challenge up at A Blog Named Hero. It’s all about Clean and Simple cards, which are my absolute favorite.
Since we have collaborated with the magnificent Wplus9 Design Studio, I have used a lot of their products today. I took a piece of their white cardstock, and some washi tape to mask off a window in the center of the card. Then I used a watercolor brush and their new Lake House spray mist to color the open area. It’s a gorgeous color, and I’m not typically a fan of blues.
I flicked some of the same spray mist onto the cardstock after that for a little bit more depth of color. Once that was dry I stamped the sentiment in black ink and then clear embossed the heart for a bit of dimension and to tie the sentiment into the focal point.
Super simple card, but I really like how it turned out.
I hope you’ll join us in the challenge. Simon Says Stamp is giving away a $25 gift certificate to the winner, which I would highly recommend you spend on Wplus9 products. 🙂
