Hello! Welcome back to another Stampin' Up! Artisan Design Team Blog
Hop! Join us each week as Stampin' Up! Artisan Design Team members from
around the world share our ideas using Stampin' Up! products with you!
The new Stampin' Up! Catalog has gone live and you can now order all of the fabulous new products that the Stampin' Up! Artisan Design Team has been featuring! This week we are featuring the Over the Rainbow and Brushstrokes stamp sets. There are so many fabulous bright and fun projects in the catalog featuring the Over the Rainbow set that I love! So, I decided to tone mine down a bit to show this sets versatility. . . this set isn't just for bright colors and rainbows!
I used some linen thread behind the "hello" cutout to give it more of a soft, relaxing, "beachy" feeling. Perhaps I was inspired by some recent travel photos a friend shared of her coastal getaway. . . it made me dream of my taking my own little trip to the beach!
Ahhhhhh. . . let's kick off our flip-flops and hop on over to Cindy's blog, shall we?!
Hello everybody! Welcome back to another Fancy Friday! For this month's theme we are featuring a sketch challenge by the amazing Jen Timko! She is the sketch queen! I love the simplicity of her sketch, it leaves it open for many different interpretations! You can choose to go simple, or choose to go all out, and in my case I did both! (you'll get to see another card created with this sketch on my blog next month).
Check out the fun sketch:
and here is my take. . .
How funny, as I post them next to each other I realized I followed her color scheme too! Hahahah! Totally unintentional!
Love the foil on the card? ME TOO! I have been a foiling fool lately! I just can't get enough of it! Check out the video below to see how I used my Boho Chic embossing folder (available from Stampin' Up! June 2nd) to create the background for my card!
I must pause and put in a disclaimer so that I don't get in trouble by the compliance police. . .
