Hello Sweet Friends! We have a fun blog hop at Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps today with some SWEET prize:
We had some really hot days lately and even though it has cooled down after some much needed rain, I am ready for cool(er) thoughts! Especially in my craft room, where the temperature can be pretty high!
Anyhow... I made a card using O Holy Night clear stamp set:
The background was made with Brea Reese shimmer paint... I just dropped some ink on the wet water color card stock and spritzed it with water... such an easy and cool way to add color to your background.
We have a CHRISTmas sale going on at the SNSS Store, so check it out and enjoy CHRISTmas in July!
The next person in the hop is Sherri.
Thanks for stopping by,
Monika
