The Stamp Review Crew: Host Set Bonus Hop


I'm back again, just a week after last week's hop, with a BONUS hop! Yay! This hop is a little different, because we could choose from any of our current host sets.


I chose to use the set with the cute little animals, Love You Lots. I'm kind of in love with those little critters! I decided to use the 2016-2017 In-Colors as the basis of my card. I started by stamping the background with the "love you lots" sentiment. I had a few places that didn't line up as I would have liked, so I added a few pieces of washi tape over the top. After I added my focal panel, I couldn't even tell there was a boo boo. See, you can fix your mistakes instead of trashing your work! 😁

Thanks for stopping by! Click on the links below to continue on in the hop. I can't wait to see what sets everyone used!

The Stamp Review Crew: Timeless Textures Edition

It's time for another round of The Stamp Review Crew, and this week I got to make my first two cards in my new home in Tennessee! My stamp room isn't quite put together, but I was at least able to get to some things to be able to participate this week. Yay! 

Our stamp set this week is Timeless Textures. This is a great set for doing backgrounds! I decided to only use it with sentiments instead of other images, so you could really see the images in this set. I did a fall card and a Christmas card.

I think this one ended up looking a bit like Christmas ornaments in the background.

I hope you enjoyed my cards. Click on the links below to continue on in the hop!
