Typografia Blog Hop with STAMPlorations

Hello!  And welcome to my stop on the Typografia Blog Hop with STAMPlorations!!! WOOT WOOT!  I have a few cards to share that use the new sentiment sets, and these sets are awesome!  They are a great size, and I love the sayings on each one...


This first card is sparkly and bright and I LOVE it!  I've mixed the new Typografia Motivate Crossing the Ocean Stamp Set with the older Dee's Artsy Impressions: New Beginning.  For the background I stamped the sun several times and trimmed off the edges before coloring them in with a mix of Spectrum Noir Sparkle Pens.  I then stamped and colored in the sentiment before fussy cutting it and adhering it with foam adhesive.  I added a few "faux stitching" strips to the top and bottom corners, and finished it off with a rounded edge.  Take a peek at all the sparkle too!


For my next card I've mixed the Typografia Motivate: Just Be Better Stamp Set with the In Bloom Floral Bliss Trio Set.  I'm a sucker for florals and I just couldn't stop coloring these ones in...

To create this card I started by stamping the flowers twice in corners of a piece of kraft cardstock with kraft ink.  I then colored the images with Spectrum Noir Blendable Colour Pencils.  I also added a few highlights with a white gel pen.  For the sentiment I stamped and embossed it with white embossing powder before I used my Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Dies.  When I first tried layering the sentiment over the flowers I felt like too much of the flowers were being covered up, so I opted to make a larger card.  I then trimmed the flowers out, popped them up with foam adhesive in the corners of a 6 x 6" cardbase and was able to add the sentiment on top.  I also added a few floral sequins to the sentiment as a finishing touch.
