Welcome back

This month CTMH have a special deal for hostess stamps.  Normally you can only buy these stamp sets when you host a gathering but this month they have offered the stamps sets to anyone who purchases a stamp set for just $32.50 for just $6.50 which is a massive savings.

One of the stamp sets is the Everything is Better with a Friend.  I love the sassiness of this stamp set and it would be great for both scrapbooking and cardmaking.

I made these cards for a cardmaking class last week and they proved to be very popular.  Colouring in is really popular now with adult colouring in books etc but stamps are also great to colour in.  I have done three cards and used three different colouring techniques- watercolour pencils, ShinHan Touch Twin markers and paper piercing.  The vibrant colours of the Scaredy Cat papers really went well with these cards.

Materials used:

Cardstock – White Daisy, Thistle, Sunset

Paper – Scaredy Cat

Stamp – Everything is Better with a Friend, Just to Say

Ink – Memento Black, Black

Watercolour Pencils

ShinHan Touch Twin Markers – YR24 Marigold, P282 Peony Purple, Z2463 Sap Green.WG4 Clay, Y222 Golden Yellow, YR29 Barely Beige, BR96 Mahogany, BG61 Peacock Blue

This stamp set as well as all the other Hostess stamp sets from the Seasonal Expressions 2 and the Annual Inspirations Book are available for just $6.50 when you purchase a stamp set for just $32.50.  This is such great value so get in quick before the end of the month and you can start shopping here and click on the Jump On It July link to make your selection.

These cards will be available for sale at Gift Hutt.

Have a good week and Happy Crafting.
