Okay, I have two projects to share with you so let's get started! My first project features the Hello with Botanicals Standalone Cuts:
I die cut felt for some awesome texture. Gold Glitter Cardstock?! Yes Please! The vellum botanicals gives it even more texture and dimension, don't you agree?
I love texture in my cards, this is a great way to add it without the additional bulk when mailing.
Here's a question, when you think of the song Hello, who do you think of Adele or Lionel Richie? My answer definitely shows my age...LOL.
Next up is a project that uses the new Fruitastic set:
You're Sweet
inside & out
I could easily be a fruitarian...love the stuff in real life and as a crafter. I decided to work with those sweet strawberries in a free form style.
I stamped the stems and the fruit with water reactive ink. With the strawberry image, I lightly moved around the color with a wet paintbrush.
I splattered black watercolor on the yellow panel from the Let your Heart Decide 6x6. The sentiment has been stamped and heat embossed in white on a black strip of cardstock. I was able to find a coordinating cardstock that I had in my stash for the green frame.
Next up is my teamie Isha Gupta, I can't wait to see what she has designed for today! If you get lost along the way, here is the complete hop listing:
