A Release Day Hop - Skipping Stones Design
This is my second post of the day - please scroll down for my TCP Tuesday post
(pssstt . . . it's my first time hosting!!) :)
Welcome to the Skipping Stones Design Blog Hop to celebrate the release of Pumpkin Seed Sentiments! If you've just happened upon my blog today, make sure to start from the beginning at Skipping Stones Design. You should have arrived here from Wendy Jordan's blog.
Combined with the blog hop today, it's also Skipping Stones Sketch Tuesday which means we're showcasing another great creation from our Guest Sketch Artist this month, Lea Lawson. We'd love for you to play along with the sketch and link your card at the Skipping Stones Blog. A free stamp set is up for grabs to a lucky winner that joins our sketch challenge!
What a fun set Pumpkin Seed Sentiments is!! There are 3 patterns that you can use to build a background and the great thing about them is you can use them together like I did today! I found that it was easier (for me) to stamp the inside (pink) first and then stamp the outer part (green) next. Imagine all the cool color combinations you could use with these!!
I also love the font used for the sentiments - very bold and eye-catching! I found one of my Quickutz embossing folders was the perfect match for the stamped background - very neat!
Thanks for visiting today!! Your next stop on the hop is the super fabulous Amy Tsuruta!! Enjoy the rest of the hop!
