osat blog hop: chick ewe out

By

Hello friends! It is time for the monthly One Stamp At A Time Blog Hop. This month’s hop is an animal theme and the OSAT Design Team has some fun projects in store. Be sure to make your way through the complete blog hop roster. You don’t want to miss anything!

Last month I received the BEST Valentine gift ever. My first Grandchild was born!!! She has completely stolen my heart.

So naturally with baby on my mind, I create a couple of fun projects to welcome a sweet little girl.

I just adore this sweet little bunny from the Fable Friends stamp set. Reminds me so much of Peter Rabbit. Paired with the Beautiful Bouquet background stamp and some sweet Blushing Bride gingham DSP, you end up with a perfect gift pair.

I colored the little bunny with my Stampin’ Blends. I love the shading you can get. The Beautiful Bouquet is stamped with white ink on a Gray Granite card base. I sponged Pool Party ink on the oval with the sentiment to achieve a lighter shade of Pool Party. Isn’t he adorable peeking out from the heart opening?

I made a little gift box using one of the Mini Pizza Boxes. I stamped the Beautiful Bouquet in Gray Granite ink. I also used the heart cut out from the card. The “baby” is cut out of Whisper White card stock and sponged with Pool Party ink for a soft shade to match the oval on the card.

Thanks for stopping by. I am going back to staring at photos of my sweet little Granddaughter!

Be sure to check out what the rest of the Design Team has created! You can find a pop up full blog hop roster by clicking on the BLUE RECTANGLE below.

stamp review crew: honey bee

By

Hello friends! I am excited to be hopping once again with the Stamp Review Crew. If you are not familiar with The Stamp Review Crew, we are a group of international Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators who hop together on the first and third Monday of the month to bring you some great inspiration. Each blog hop features a different stamp set. You can find all of the blog hops archived on the Stamp Review Crew blog. Today we are shining a spotlight on the Honey Bee stamp set.

This stamp set is so much fun to work with. For my first card, I was inspired by one of my favorite Disney characters with a love for Hunny – Winnie the Pooh! I was thinking about the scene where he gets stuck in the honey tree and honey is dripping all around him.

I created a Crushed Curry watercolor wash to try to create a similar look.

I added a couple of bees, some Golden Honey DSP and some die cut honey comb for added texture.

My second project continues the dripping honey theme.

This time I added the panel to a card base embossed with the Corrugated 3D emboss folder.

I think that Silly Ol’ Bear would approve, don’t you? Time for you to continue your way to more creative inspiration through the blog hop. From here you can head over to Linda by clicking the NEXT button below or you can go back to Holly by clicking the PREVIOUS button
