Hello friends,
Today, I am super excited to be participating in Right at Home's National Craft Month blog hop on behalf of Avery Elle. Dozens of designers are participating in today's hop to share ideas and inspiration and celebrate a month dedicated to crafting.
What's a blog hop without prizes? Jamie from Avery Elle is offering a $25.00 gift certificate to one of the lucky winners. For instructions on how to enter, just visit the Right at Home blog.
I have two projects to share with you today using some stamp set's from Avery Elle's latest release. A full list of the Avery Elle products I used on both of these cards is below.
First up, is a card featuring the Best Ever stamp set. Best Ever is a fantastic stamp set for celebrating so many important people in your life- from family (including in-laws) to others who are just like family including teachers and coaches. For my card, I made a Coach Thank You card by pairing Best Ever with the Hats Off stamp set.
I stamped the hands at the very bottom of the white card stock panel and added the caps as if the players were tossing them in the air. I colored the images with Copic markers and added a bit of Sapphire twine as a finishing touch.
For my next card, I went all soft and springy with the Banner and Wreath stamp set. I stamped the wreath in with hybrid ink in Natural and stamped and die cut the flowers, banner and bird with the same ink. Lighter ink almost disappears when color is added. For this card, I added color using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers.
Supplies
Best Coach Ever card
Birthday Wreath card
