Hello there! Thanks to everyone who stopped by and left sweet comments on our blog hop post yesterday. There's still time to win one of two stamp sets being given away so if you missed it, make sure to check out THIS post.
I am so excited to hear your ideas on what stamp sets you would like to see in the future! I definitely have plans for more critters so I'm happy to hear that many of you guys want them too. I can't wait to start sharing peeks of our Spring release throughout the month of December. If you're on facebook make sure to like our page because we will be sharing many of those peeks over there (see this helpful tutorial on how you can actually see more posts from your favorite fan pages in your newsfeed). If you're not on facebook, not to worry... We will be sharing some peeks here as well. :)
Today I have another card using the Bundled Up stamp set with some non-traditional Christmas colors. I had colored this little guy beforehand so I took my cues from him and sponged on Cracked Pistachio and Barn Door distress inks for my background.
Taking another cue from the little guy, I thought it would be fun to play up the hot cocoa image for my background so I repeatedly stamped the hot cocoa mug using the same Barn Door distress ink after stamping it off once on scrap paper.
I love how the little ice block from the Snow Kissed set looks with the Bundled Up Penguin!
I will be back tomorrow with one more Bundled Up card before I turn the blog back to my ultra talented creative team. :)
Hello there! You should be arriving here from Jennie's blog. For those visiting for the first time, we would love to welcome you! We are a new company specializing in quality made clear photopolymer stamps and steel dies lovingly made in the USA. Here's a peek out our debut release... We are planning new releases every three months with our next release due out by early January.
Today for my project I created a rainbow inspired card using our popular Bundled Up stamp set along with word & snowflake dies from our Santa's Helpers and Snow Kissed die sets.
As I was stamping out the accessories, I thought to myself how cute it would be to make the penguins represent all the colors of the rainbow so I created a card that is 4" x 9" and fits perfectly in a business sized envelope.
For my background I lightly inked it up with some Tumbled Glass distress ink and scattered tiny snowflakes. For my sentiment I blended the colors of the rainbow using the same Copic markers I had used to color my images and then added some glossy shine over the top using Ranger Glossy Accents (after adhering the words to my card with a Zig glue pen).
