The Stamping Boutique Challenge "Graduation"

It's that time again where I share with you another challenge d  card for the Stamping Boutique . This week's challenge is Graduation. I used TSB image AJ the graduate  I really love how this card turned out! I'm loving the chevron pattern I used on the card. Chevron patterns are very popular right now.  To create the chevron piece I used the Heidi Swapp stencil kit.  I used 'My Favorite Things' Hybrid ink "Blu Rasberry". I really love the color of this ink. I colored the image with my copic and spectrum noir markers.  The sentiment is from the Micheal's $1 bin. It's a bit blurry as it was hard to pick up the sentiment on camera since it's stamped on velum it says "Sending congrats your way" The base of the card is dark blue and to finish it off I put some blue half pearls. Now it's your turn to participate.  Graduation season is upon us or coming up in June so get crafty with us and create a card or project for the l

The Stamping Boutique New Release MAY

Happy Monday! To start off the week I've got three cards to share with you. The Stamping Boutique has three new images in the store and I got the chance to make some cards with them to show you some of the possibilities that you can create with this new images. Tikki Goddess Spring is in the air and it's been so warm and sunny out where I live.  If this is any indication how warm it will be this summer we are in for some warm and nice weather. This new image is the perfect image for the beach lover or summer projects you have in mind.  Of course I colored the image with my copic markers and spectrum noir markers. Then I made a fishtale banner out of velum and stamped the "Aloha" sentiment and embossed it with clear embossing powder over the razzle berry ink. To finish off the card I used some red half pearls.                                                       <  -------  All around the city

One of these days I will get around to updating the blog with some more DIY projects and cards I've created. My time is more limited with a newborn in the house.

So now it's your turn to play along with us over at t he stamping boutique challenge blog. Break out those punches (maybe you never use them, maybe you used them lots) and get o
