Global Design Project - GDP234 - Sketch Challenge

March 30, 2020

Hello friends. We’ve got a simple sketch for you to work off of this week. I created is card based from a sweet Birthday card that Emma Goddard sent me back in January. I love how the vellum creates the tag on this card but it’s so subtle you hardly notice it.

Timeless Tulips - Stamp Review Crew & Monday Montage

March 29, 2020

Hi Friends. Welcome, welcome. TWO HOPS FOR THE PRICE OF ONE! Kind of like a choose your own blog adventure … The Stamp Review Crew are showcasing the Timeless Tulips stamp this week and the Monday Montage team are showcasing current Stampin’ Up! projects.

A little about my project: I decided to create an Easter card for my Grandmother. She loves the color purple and would regularly attend the Tulip Festival in Skagit, Washington (The Skagit Tulip Festival is regularly held April 1-30 however due to our current circumstances it will not be open to the public). Attending a tulip festival is on my bucket list. One day … I think this card will bring a bit of brightness to her day.

I decided to soften the look of the Tulips by stamping them on watercolor paper and blending the ink with an Aqua Painter to make the tulip images feel a little more painterly. I like the effect.

The Stamp Review Crew an international group of paper crafters that get together to feature and review a single Stampin’ Up! stamp set on the first and third Monday of each month. You can hop along with us at the end of this post or skip along to Nikki.

The Monday Montage gals host a blog hop every other Monday showing you fun and exciting Stampin’ Up! products. Next up on the Monday Montage hop is Cheryl.
