Monday Montage 158 - Sweet & Simple

February 16, 2020

Hello friends! The Montage Montage crew is back today to share what we are working on.

Sometimes I love to make the simple cards., just stamps and ink. This card couldn't BEE simpler yet it’s super adorable. I used the Honey Bee stamps and dies, paper and ink. That’s it!

I’m going to make a bunch of these cards and put them in gift sets to give as gifts. I switch up the greetings but otherwise keep the design the same.

The Monday Montage crew is a talented bunch. A quick refresher: the Montage gals host a blog hop every other Monday showing you fun and exciting Stampin’ Up! products. Ready for more Stampin’ Up! inspiration? Be sure to loop through the entire hop and see all of the amazing artwork created just to inspire! Next up is Cheryl.

Stamp Review Crew SAB & Global Design Project - GDP228 Honey Bee

February 16, 2020

Another two for one card! The Stamp review crew is sharing their favorite Salabration products. I’m a HUGE fan of the Golden Honey Specialty Designer Series Papers and the Flower stamp set and punch. I’ve used all three on my card today.

It’s not often you get to CASE yourself! This Global Design project challenge is a CASE the designer challenge and the designer is ME!!! I made this Eiffle tower thank you card a few months back and it was selected to be the inspiration for this challenge.

I decided to use the same basic sketch layout and idea of the flowers floating up the card and over the main element. On this card the element is the bee hive. I love how the bees are flying around the flowers and the hive.

I’d love to see your take on this card. Play along with us!. Visit the Global Design Project blog for more details. Be sure to tag your projects #gdp228.

Now, are you ready to see more Saleabration LOVE from the stamp review crew? Next up on the Stamp Review Crew blog hop is Jay. Thanks for visiting.

Birthday (16 Candles) - One Stamp at a Time

February 13, 2020

Hello Friends! THE OSAT team is back. Let me introduce you all to the One Stamp at a Time team. These talented crafters have been creating projects (a card and non card) based on a certain theme since 2015. We feature these projects in a monthly blog hop. I’m super excited to join this crew and hop with them every month.

This month we are celebrating BIRTHDAYS. While the birthday theme is 16 candles we were given the liberty to create any birthday themed project (not only candles).

I’m feeling like I need a vacation. A tropical Hawaiian vacation! Inspired by Hawaii my projects are a birthday card and chocolate box created with a tropical theme using the Timeless Tropical bundle. The flowers and leaves from the Timeless Tropical stamp set have been colored using Stampin’ Blends and cut out using the dies. This color palette is bright and soft at the same time, a fun juxtaposition. The pop of black is really striking against the expanse of white. That black and white stipe is from a Sale-a-bration Freebie favorite called Golden Honey Designer Series Paper.
