Todays focus is on three new sets illustrated by 3 amazing people.
First up we have Melanie Muenchinger's new set Perfect Pallets.This is a two step layering set with a few added extras. Of course you do not have to use the two step layering process. As you will see by my samples below, I omitted the first layer and they turned out beautifully!
For my first card I masked off an area and stamped the second layer twice.
For my first card I masked off an area and stamped the second layer twice.
For this card I also used the Sassy Stripes stencil that is included in the Pop Art Flowers Card Kit and a die from the You Have My Heart die set.
I stenciled a portion of the Sassy Stripes stencil with the new Electro Pop Neon inks by Rina Krupsky and added a simple sentiment from Pallets.
The second set we are featuring today is Beautiful Balloons by Beth Silaika. This set has a coordinating die that may be purchased separately.
Here are my cards featuring this set.
I randomly stamped the balloons and added stars from a previous released set called All Star also illustrated by Beth Silaika
Quick and simple card with stars from All Star for added interest.
I love the way this fun card turned out with the multi colored outlined balloons. It took absolutely no time to create!
The last set we are featuring today is called Your Wings illustrated by Lisa Hetrick. If you love butterflies this ones for you!
Here are the cards I created with this set
The wings were decorated with floral images from the set with the new Electro Pop Neon Inks.
The background was created with one of the new stencils called Funky Flourish. I also used the smile die.
My last card today was stenciled using the Sassy Stripes stencil and GKD white pigment ink. (stamped several times for good coverage). I added a couple of leafy branches from Your Wings and a flower from Hello Beautiful. The sentiment is from one of the sets in this months card kit called Wrapped In Love.
