Wohoo, it's the second June release today over at the Sweet Stamp Shop . And this months release is fabulous and cute and versatile - just what I love!
I made one card for every Set, so let me introduce to you:
1) Koala
Oh my gosh, I LOOOOVE those little guys - they are beyond cute and you can use them on a card for ANY occasion. One of the most obvious might be a baby card, so that's what I did :)
I really wanted to keep the focus on those sweeties, co I made it very CAS: Just a few flowers (from the Hats Set) and a very simple color scheme. Soft for a baby card, does make sense, huh? ;)
2) Campout
Wow, a set with different campers - have you ever seen campers as cute as that? They're so much fun to color. I created a backdrop with some white embossing paste on kraft, because you just can't go wrong with white on kraft. And wood veneers and kraft always make a great pair. The colors are all muted so the camper really pops. (Again, focus on the mail image ;) )
I think I never really made a sympathy card so far - it's tough for me. But set is versatile and not only good for sympathy cards, you know? I made a card for someone you love - a good friend, your partner, your parents - there are so many people to think of and to send love to, right?
Whenever you want to invite someone to a party or a dinner - this will be your go-to set. It's perfect for scrapbookers and cardmakers - and all the food-related projects that you might create. I made an invitation using the sentiment from Juggling Act and the hats from hats, hehe. I love repeated stamping with sentiments - one of the best ways to use all those awesome inkpads and combine colors like you want (or even for color-challenges!)
Okay, I hop you liked my inspiration parade. There are TONS of inspirations on the Sweet Stamp Shop Blog, so hop over, get inspired and fall in love ;)

ReplyDeleteWhich brand of black ink do you use for stamping? These are just amazing, and the stamping is so solid & dark!
ReplyDeleteHi Dawn, I use memento tuxedo black for the party that are colored with markers. Setiments and stuff are stamped with Simon Sys Stamp Black Ink (Whick is really a crisp, dark, black).
DeleteI sometimes don't get the best impression with Memento, U use Faber Castell Pitt Artist Pens in black to fix that.
Hope that was helpful :)
Oh Christine, four beautiful cards in one post! Each one is wonderfully put together for interest and eye-catching elements abound. Beautiful work!
