Pin It Now!
Hey crafty friend! Today I have a card to share featuring a stamp set I've been dying to use, Banner Blessings. It's a photopolymer set with four stamps that feature scripture for several occasions. I LOVE it. I used it with Butterfly Basics as a background collage for
Hand Stamped Sentiments' latest color challenge.
I used the emboss resist technique to create a soft collage background, sponging Bermuda Bay on white cardstock after embossing with clear. The spritzing tool gave it a little extra blast of color.
The seam binding ribbon was plain Very Vanilla, and I ran it across a Strawberry Slush ink pad, wet it, crumpled and squeezed the water out, then used a blow dryer to quickly dry the inky ribbon. Then tied into a bow and scrunched it for a shabby look.
The large butterfly framelit was cut with vellum to give a little more layering without hiding the pretty stamped background.
Stop by HSS to see the inspiration projects and play along!
PS: In case you didn't notice, I substituted Strawberry Slush for the Watermelon Wonder, as I'm probably the last demo in the world to not place an order from the new catalog. Sad but true!
Have a blessed and creative day!
