March SOTM Blog Hop – Winged Masterpiece

15 Replies

Welcome, welcome, welcome!  This month’s Stamp of the month is such a pretty one!  One that you can do so many things with!  Color?  Yup!  Not color? Yup!  With sentiments that cover a whole gambit of occasions!  Today you could have arrived from Katy’s blog, or you could have started here.  Either way, you should end up back where you started!

I honestly didn’t have any idea where to start, originally, with this set.  I didn’t want to cut it out (it has no thin cuts), but didn’t want to leave it blank, either.  I wanted to color it, but have been using my markers a lot recently, so decided to go with watercoloring, but decided to use the inks instead of the watercolor pencils that we carry.

 

I wanted to go with the colors of the In This Together paper packet.  The purple stripes is actually a zip strip from one of those papers.  I really love how this card turned out!  The little brush strokes outside of the frame, the coloring (even though it isn’t perfect), the colors, and the whole thing!  I hope you like it as well!

 

I triple layered the frame, to give it some substance on the card front, and I think that helps it pop all that much more!

Thanks again for stopping by!  Hopefully you will leave a little note below before you hop over to Krista’s blog!  Enjoy the rest of the blog hop!

How about a little sketch?

Leave a reply

How about a card sketch from CTMH to start the week and month off with?  This is going to be a super fun one!  So, CTMH has put out this sketch on their blog, you may have seen it already.  So, you have the artwork that they have created with it.  We here at H2H decided to have a play with it as well!  Any of the currently available papers are fair game for us when we are working with this.  I cannot wait to see all the different takes on the sketch with the different papers!  I LOVE to see how everyone has their own view on the same thing!

 

 

I stuck with the sketch fairly closely.  I did add a background image that was smaller than the card (giving it a frame) and I shortened the little image on the right, because of the scrap that I had available to me)

 

 

I used Mink ink for the butterfly, and some gold embossing for the sentiment and the little mini flower on the right.  I think it turned out super cute!  

 

Thanks so much for stopping by!  I hope that you join us on the H2H challenge blog this week!  This sketch makes some fantastic cards!

H2H Theme Challenge: All You Need Is Love

Leave a reply

Welcome to another weekly challenge with H2H!  This week we have partnered up with Double Trouble Challenges!

The card that I have for you today, was super fun and easy to put together!

I had fun incorporating the February Stamp of the month in with this design!  It makes adding a bit of fun to the inside of the card, SUPER easy!

I used a bit of canary and espresso inks, and the card was done!

I added the sunflower from the Bloom with Grace Scrapbooking stamp set (which is still available!) and a sentiment from the current Card Subscription!

 

I used the same watercolor splash stamp to highlight two of the words on the background paper.  I thought it fit the them pretty perfectly!

I hope you like my card today!  You should hop over to play along with the H2H challenge, or at least get some inspiration!

Let me know what you think of this fun little card before you go!

Can you believe it’s October?! This year has taken forever and flown by at the same time!

Well, with a new month is a new Stamp of the Month! This month’s stamp is called “With All My Love” and is a super cute set, that allows you to color if you want, but you DON’T have to! That’s my kind of stamp!

This set has some great sentiments on it too! I love that there is some variety in the fonts on there! (Plus, you can start planning for Valentine’s day, with the heart and the XOXO! 😉 )

June Stamp of the Month Blog Hop – Garden Tags

7 Replies

Welcome to the June SOTM blog hop! This month, the stamp set is all about tags! You get four beautiful tags, ready to be colored, an additional To and From, plus a little binding stamp (that goes around the hole, if you wanted) Today you should have arrived here from Jen’s blog. If not, that’s ok too, and you just keep clicking through, you will get back around to Jen’s blog!

Today I wanted to do something just a little bit different, and went with a box that I created with the tags! Isn’t it adorable? I stamped with Intense Black Ink and colored using our watercolor pencils. Add some micro-tip scissors and a bit of liquid glass, and you are all set!

It turned out so cute! I am just in love with it! I will be doing a video on how to do it in my Let’s Flock Together FB group later this week!

Hopefully you know by now, that the SOTM is yours for just $5 with a qualifying purchase from me/my store! I would love to answer any questions that you may have on how to do that! Just let me know!

Now, I know you want to keep hopping and gathering ideas for how to use this fantastic stamp set! So, I will send you off to Becca’s blog!

Thanks for stopping by! I will see you again real soon!
