My first card is quite me. While I still paper craft and teach paper crafting classes my days are mostly spent making wreaths. I have an etsy shop Anita Rex Designs where I sell my handmade burlap and yarn wreaths. When I sat down to create for this hop using the new set by Hero Arts Stamp and Cut flowers I had one idea but than I put the flowers down like a wreath. Seemed so fitting isn't it?
First I started this card by stamping the Hero Arts Waves background in wet cement, all inks on this card is HA: Pale Tomato, Fresh Peach, Mint Julep, Navy and Tide Pool. I embossed the sentiment in Hero Arts gold embossing powder (hero Arts embossing powders are my favorite) The banner and flower die really made this card come together much faster!
My second card for today also uses the Stamp and Cut Flowers along with the fantastic sentiment stamp Absolutely Awesome!
I stamped the flowers and leaves and twigs in Hero Arts ink Bubble Gum, Orange Soda. And Memento's Toffee Crunch, Leaf Green and Rose Pink. I embossed in Hero Arts White the sentiment! A fun card! I enjoy stamping backgrounds!
