Paper Crafting Monthly Blog Hop - Rings Of Love DSP Congratulations

 

Hi Friends!

Welcome to our monthly Paper Crafting Blog Hop! The theme of the hop this month is congratulations.

This month, each hop participant, talented Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from around the world, has created an inspiring project to send a congratulations wish. You may have arrived from Tracy Held's blog. What a great design!

I love the Ring of Love designer series paper (DSP). I started with a piece with images of houses on it. My plan was to make a new house congratulations card. But a funny thing happened - the reverse side caught my attention and I went in a totally different direction. Has that ever happened to you? 

Rings of Love DSP #159939 Sale-a-bration item!

During Sale-a-bration with a $50 order you qualify for a free Sale-a-bration item and you could pick the Rings of Love DSP. 

I ended up with this all-occasion congratulations card. The pattern was so striking it needed very little embellishment. Do you agree? Leave me a comment sharing your thoughts. Thank you!

I layered the Congratulations sentiment from the Hand-Penned Petals stamp set on an Evening Evergreen cardstock base punched with the Double Oval Punch; I daubed a bit of Night of Navy ink around the edges of the punched sentiment before adhering Soft Succulent Shimmer ribbon to the card front.

Thank you for hopping around the world with us. Keep hopping to see even more inspiring congratulations cards! Click on the Next Blog image below to Maureen Rauchfuss' blog.

VLOG Hop Sketch Challenge - Hand Penned for the win!

Hi friends!

It's Video Blog Hop (VLOG) day! The participants in this Global SU Share Fair VLOG Hop are located across the globe. This month were holding a Sketch Challenge. Each of us took the challenge to create a project using the same sketch.

VLOG Sketch

I started with the Hand-Penned designer series paper (DSP) picked my cardstock, Garden Green, from several that coordinates with it and paired them with the coordinating stamp set, Hand-Penned Petals.
 

While I mostly followed the sketch measurements, I did make changes to the layout by turning my design on the side to make a landscape card.

Retiring but still Inspiring Day 8 - Here's a Card

Hi friends!

Some of my favorite stamps and dies are retiring after May 3, 2021. To wish them a fond farewell I'll be blogging about how awesome they are. I think they are so awesome that you'll be inspired to purchase them before they are gone for good!

The Here's a Card stamp set is a go-to set for birthdays, congratulations, sympathy and just because. It has 2 of my all-time favorite sentiments - I made you a card because you're worth it and It's all messy, the hair, the house, the heart, Life. Bon voyage dear friend!
