Country Home - Creating Kindness Blog Hop - Circles

September 6, 2018
27629490_10211302687302726_717694866806272118_o.jpg

Hello friends! It's Creating Kindness time. Are you ready to see some circle inspiration? This month's theme is circle. We could interpret this in any way we like, NO RULES! So I opted for a fairly straight forward approach. I love the circle shapes in the Stitched Shapes framelits and decided to make this my focal point using the Country Home stamp set. I have been dying to use this Country Home stamp set. It has awesome images for coloring. I used an assortment of Stampin' Blends to color the vase and flower arrangement. Now, I know that cotton is typically white but I decided to color it orange in this image. To help the Pumpkin Pie really pop I colored a little Daffodil Delight first and then added Pumpkin Pie on top.

The background uses this fabulous new Textured Impression Embossing folder that mimics the look of a tin tile ceiling. It's a top 5 must have from the Stampin' Up! Holiday catalog. I  tried to highlight additional circles in the background using a little champagne shimmer paint with a sponge dauber.

Hello! I rarely show my face on here but I thought I’d pop in between cards and say hello from Stampin’ Up! OnStage in Raleigh!!! My crafty HEART is so full catching up with old and new friends. The people are always the best part of any experience, especially this one. I feel so lucky to catch up with my upline, old co-workers, the Artisan gals from various years, Monday Montage, TGIF challenges crew and even a sprinkle of Global Design Project peeps. So many lovely people who make my life better! It’s rare to find a place where you know so many people from decades of your life. Yay for stamping! I won’t spam you with all the many photos but here are a few. Yes, I’m usually a dork. ❤️❤️❤️

My fav… pulling out an OLD stamp set from the stash to create a custom background. I played with type to match the background to the primary image using simple watercolor and stamps. Paint and stamp in same color. Easy. Color is Blackberry Bliss. Stamp sets are Stampin’ Up! oldies but goodies: Rough Type & PS I Love You. #stampinup #cardmaker #cardmaking #cardmakersofinstagram #useyourstash #cardmakingideas #cardmakingreels #papercrafting #handmadecard #cardmakingchallenge

All time favorite stamp set? How about favorite of the month? Year? I have so many "favs" and they rotate. Today we are sharing projects using our favorite stamp sets from our stash. There are certain stamp themes that I am certain to buy and keep. Any stamp set with a typewriter... or camera image, purchased! I have loads. On this card I used two typewriter themed stamp sets. 'Rough Type', which is and old alphabet stamp set. Remember those? It seems like we don't have many aphabet stamp set options anymore. Good thing I kept so many around ... The typewriter image is from a stamp set called 'P.S. You're the Best'. Check out what my friends created using their favorite STASH stamps sets!
