Hey guys! Let's hang out today! That sounds like fun! Today's card is bright and colorful and happy! There is definitely a trend right now for all things involving plants! You see it in home decor, clothes, and of course crafting! I love this particular trend and I have accumulated quite a few plant stamp sets! Today I'm featuring the brand new stamps and dies (Hang in There Potted Plants) from Hero Arts that are right on trend. These plants are so fun to color! And the matching dies make them look awesome. I couldn't stop myself from stamping - you'll see. LOL.
The reason I made this card is that I am part of an Instagram Hop today! What is an Instagram Hop?? It's like a Blog Hop, but on Instagram! We each have a project to share, and then send you along to the next stop on the hop. The cool thing? There are prizes! $50 gift certificate to Scrapbook.com! WOOOOT! The hop goes live at 11am CST today. I hope you'll find some time later to go over to Instagram and check it out.
My finished card is a white A2 card base. I layered some woodgrain cardstock for a natural touch.... This card has it all. Stamping, Die Cutting, Copics, Embossing, Ink Blending....
This project started with me stamping and die cutting out a TON of the plants. I colored about 10 of them! SO FUN! I love to put on music and just sit and color. After I had them all colored in, I arranged and re-arranged until I got a card layout that I liked.
After I got the layout that I liked, I decided that I wanted some color to come through the back. I made a distress ink blended background in shades of Lemonade and Mustard. Just looks like the sun shining through all the pretty plants! It was just the little extra this card needed.
I really like the font for the sentiments in this stamp set. I heat embossed in white onto a small strip of black cardstock. Makes a nice graphic pop.
All of the plants are affixed to the card using foam tape. I added a few clear enamel dots to look like water.
SOOOO....thanks for hanging out with me for a bit today! I always am glad you stopped by! Remember to head over to Instagram to do the hop and be entered to win a prize! I will see you on Sunday with a fun project for St. Patrick's Day! Have a great weeeeeeekend!! XOXO
