See those cute little tiny stars?!?! Yup, those little stars are part of the
“Small But Mighty Affirmations” clear stamp set and they are
just clearly adorable!
Copic Markers: Sadly I did not record the colours I used.
I kept my card VERY simple. I slightly enlarged the berry image to fit the
front panel of my A2 card front.and who couldn’t help but adore that sweet
accompanying sentiment!!!
Come and join both members from the Bloom Brigade and the
Instant Gardeners design teams on our blog hop today…
So I finished up Periscopeing just a few minutes ago and what I wanted was to create a card using the viewers to decide some of the steps.
First we
started off with choosing from 4 color palettes and the decision was use the
colors from this photo were to be used...
And step by step we built a card together using the majority of the 4 stamps sets
and 3 die sets from the Stamp of Approval “Beautiful World”
collection. Viewers got to decide the shape of my focal piece, what stamp set to use, what flowers they
wanted me to use, the sentiment and the placement of the floral cluster with
leaves.
It was a super fun process and great to get feedback plus a good way
to share my process.
And the final card after the Scope...
I think it turned out amazing!
Make sure to catch my Periscope replay in
the next day as they disappear after 24 hours! Search: “Allison
Cope”.
I'll be doing this again in the future because it was a
blast!!! Thanks to all those people who dropped in to check it out and help me with my card.
I also challenged viewers to be inspired by my card and to share
their cards below! GO!!!!
EDITED TO ADD:You can check out the YouTube of my Periscope right here!

Approval. Today, Catherine Pooler, the StampNation

Howdy all! It’s Friday and this is my second post of the day… wow! It’s
miracle to have more than one post a week some weeks!!
Today I’m playing along with the Kraftin’ Kimmie
Stamps “Saturday Challenge”. This week’s theme is “HOME” (hence the birdhouses!). And I had been
waiting to enter this week’s challenge until I got the brand new stamp set,
“Welcome to the Neighbourhood!” – which I received today!!! So I inked
it up right away (along with the sentiment from the “A Purr-fect Day” stamp
set) and created this card, also using the March card sketch too!
And here’s what the March Sketch looks like…
I’m also happy to announce that I was one of the winners of Kim’s Guest
Designer contest held a few weeks ago. I’ll be designing for her new release in
May and can I say… the May new release stamps are SO cute and I
can hardly wait to create with them! You’re going to want them ALL!
Kim is also promoting a brand new Surprise Guest Krafty
Kit! This kit is now available for purchase TODAY and only
available until April 15th. This kit is available for international customers
too! For further kit details, click here.
Thanks for stopping by! I hope you like my little feline creation!
