I’ve been having a lot of fun playing along in the I Spy Sketches lately so I thought that I would play once again in this week’s sketch since it’s so easy.

I’ve had the idea for this card floating around in my head for awhile now and I’m happy to have been able to finally get it out on a card base :)

Beach Bums Blog Hop Challenge

Our final set this month is another FABULOUS creation from Torio. Made to coordinate perfectly with the previously released Make A Splash stamp set, this set if perfect for not only making cards, but scrapbooking your family vacations, and summer beach trips!

Beach Bum is a 6x8 set that includes a total of 19 stamps and will sell for $24.00.

 

Would you like to win the new Beach Bum stamp set? Here is what you need to do- visit the Trendsetter’s blogs that are participating in each of the blog hop challenges below and comment on their creations as you go. One of the Trendsetter’s blogs (from each hop day) will be randomly chosen as the ‘it’ blog and a winner will be picked using a random number generator from the comments left on that Trendsetter’s Blog Hop Challenge post.

You will not know which blog has been chosen so the more you comment on the better your chances are of winning new stamps! The Blog Hop Challenges will be open until 5 PM Eastern Time Saturday, July 28^th with the winner being announced during the release party chat.

I wanted these cute little kiddos with their beach bums sticking out to be my main focus so I created a one layer card and had the background be more muted. Images were stamped onto white cardstock, colored with Prismacolor pencils, cut out and adhered to the cardbase using dimensionals. The sheer satin edged ribbon, natural jute twine and button are all from RibbonCarousel.com.

I also created this downloadable Tips and Tricks page to show you fun ways to use this set and how it can be used in combination with another TSG stamp set!

 Enjoy Life may be an adorable ice cream themed set but I wanted to show you the versatility you can achieve simply by thinking outside the box. The sentiment is from the previously released stamp set My Little Friend. By turning the cones upside down and stamping the ice cream in two different shades of red, I have created adorable mushrooms!

 Thanks for stopping by today, enjoy the rest of the projects that the Trendsetters have created using this new set!!

No Peeking

I made this card awhile back but never got around to sharing it with you guys. I absolutely love how this quick and simple card turned out!

I used one of the stamp sets we released last holiday season called No Peeking. This set was originally designed to be used for creating Advent calendars but are great for making simple cards too!

I stamped one of the circle images included in this set on the cardbase to create the design. The image was stamped onto a separate piece of cardstock, colored, cut out and adhered to the cardbase using dimensionals.

Stamp set used: No Peeking
