It’s time for another Monday Montage blog hop. You can hop your way through all ten posts by clicking on the “Next” or “Back” buttons at the end of each post. You won’t want to miss any of them!
I’m continuing on with my theme for the week — featuring the retiring stamp sets that I love most and will be sad to see go. I have two cards for you today — You’re Amazing and Field Flowers. I made them both at the same time using the same supplies, so you’ll see the same color schemes, dsp, and other products. I’ll list the supplies at the bottom.
I mentioned in a recent post that I hoped this set, You’re Amazing, wouldn’t be on the retiring set. Well, my wish wasn’t granted. I’ll miss this one. I love all of the images in this set!
Another set that I’ll really miss is Field Flowers. I think the detail on these flowers is gorgeous. And I love the look that two-step stamping gives you.
I used a sponge dauber to lightly sponge some Soft Sky ink onto the background. Another product on both of these cards that is retiring is the Calypso Coral Baker’s Twine. That one makes me sad too!
When I’m tempted to tear up over these retirements, I just try to remember that it is only a little over a month away before the new catalog will be released and there will be many new fabulous products to love. How exciting! If there’s a retiring product that you love, don’t delay — go get it now because so many of them are selling out.
You’re ready to hop on over to Breelin Renwick’s blog for a heavy dose of inspiration. She always delivers. If you prefer to work your way backwards, you can choose to hop on over to Wendy Weixler’s amazing blog and see her fantastic creativity at work. Either way, just keep hopping along until you’ve seen all ten posts.
Enjoy your Monday! Thanks for stopping by!
Supplies Used:
Stamps: You’re Amazing, Field Flowers
Ink: Garden Green, Calypso Coral, So Saffron, Soft Sky
Paper: Whisper White, Subtles and Regals DSP stack
Embellishments: Regals Designer Buttons, Essentials Paper-Piercing Pack, Calypso Coral Baker’s Twine, Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border punch
I pulled out Field Flowers and stamped the flowers with Crushed Curry ink and I used Pumpkin Pie ink for the flower center stamp. I added some Dazzling Diamonds glitter to the centers as well. I love the gingham paper from Gingham Garden dsp, so I need to use it up before the new catalog comes out. You know, that’s only two months away.
