Hand Delivered Balloons for a Stamp ‘N Hop blog hop

Hello and welcome back to another Stamp ‘N Hop. I am joining you from a village 10 miles outside the beautiful city of Cambridge in the UK. In this hop we are teasing you with some of our favourite pre-order items from the new Annual Catalogue which will be available from the 1st June 2018.  If you have hopped over from Tracie Marie Lewis I am sure your loved her project, as did I.

For this month’s blog hop I have chosen the  Hand Delivered Stamp Set. This sweet stamp set is a hostess only purchase and has so many quirky images which can be used for many different occasions and I especially like the ‘to the graduate’  and the ‘hope you feel better soon’ sentiments.

Making the card

I started with a panel of Whisper White cardstock 3⅞” by 2⅞” which I adhered to the bottom left hand corner of a Whisper White card base using a little Snail Adhesive. I stamped the skirt and legs of the girl onto the panel  using Momento Tuxedo Black ink and added the top of the girl holding the balloons, deliberately stamping off the edge onto the card base. I then lifted the stamped panel off the card base which I set aside.

Taking the following Stampin’ Blends Pens I coloured in the girl and the balloons – light & dark Rich Razzelberry, light & dark Pink Pirouette, light & dark Pool Party, light Bermuda Bay and the Colour Lifter.

Using the Detailed Trio Punch I rounded the upper left corner of the stamped and coloured panel and added it to a piece of Bermuda Bay cardstock 4” by 3” with Tombow Liquid Adhesive. I used the same punch to round the corner. I added this piece to the card base on Stampin’ Dimensionals taking care to match up the balloons.

I stamped the sentiment in Rich Razzelberry ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock and trimmed it out using scissors. I added it to the card front with Tombow Liquid Adhesive.

I absolutely love the simplicity of this set and I really wish there was a male version.

I am so enjoying being part of this amazingly talented group of demonstrators from around the world. To carry on hopping click on the button below or click on the link to the lovely Linda Handford and see what she has chosen to share with us this month.
