STAMplorations 2nd Birthday Blog Hop Day 1!




Welcome to STAMPlorations 2nd Birthday Blog Hop! Please click here for the post in our main blog. You'll find all the prize info and list of blogs participating in the hop there. Basically, the more you comment, the better changes you have for winning some of our amazing prizes! 

For my DT card for Day 1 I've used a sentiment stamp from the brand new Party Time stamp set and combined it with a flower from Blooming Buds stamp set. I water colored the flower with DI:s -not my usual style but I wanted to have a go of something different for a change. It's not too bad... But I'm back with my Copics again tomorrow...  And I do think that feels more like myself. :) At least I would need a lot of practicing with my water coloring... And I don't have the patience to always wait for the layers to dry... So everything ends up pretty blended and there's no contrasts. Oh well. ;)

Check out what the rest of the team made! You'll find links to all birthday blog hop projects here.

      It's embossed with a Spellbinders folder -I think it's called Fabric something. :) Glad you like it!
