STAMPlorations Birthday Blog Hop
Lots of excitement to share today! STAMPlorations is turning a year old and is celebrating with a blog hop! I was asked to join the celebrations as a guest designer!
Visit all the stops on the hop (a total of 14) and leave a comment for a chance to win stamps. We’re giving away over $120 worth of stamps!
I decided to play with the oh-so-fun VIGNETTE: Puzzle Pieces set and guess what?! You can win this set by commenting on my blog post by next Wednesday (July 2) at 11:55 p.m. PDT!
To create this clean and simple card, I stamped three puzzle pieces and fussy cut them. I then spritzed them with three different Heidi Swapp Color Shine colors before popping them up on the main panel with foam dots. I added a heart gemstone that I’d colored with a red Copic marker. DS3 is into puzzles these days, so I need to make a card for him with this set later in the summer!
The new release is available in the store today! A bundle of all 6 of the new July sets is available for $30 (17% off) + free shipping in the US (flat rate to other countries)!
