Hello Sweet Friends! Welcome to the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps July Release Hop! We're so excited about the new stamps available in the shop this month and can't wait to share the projects we've been working on with you! Hop along to the blogs linked below for all sorts of papercrafting inspiration! Plus, there's a GIVEAWAY! Leave a little comment love on each stop along the way for a chance to win a $10 gift voucher to the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps shop.
My first project is a pop-up bridge card with By the Sea clear stamp set:
I used the same technique I used on THIS card, following Jennifer McGuire's video tutorial. It is such a fun way to add dimension and a WOW! factor to your card...
My second card was made with the July Stamp of the Month: Sentiment Wordfetti clear stamp set:
The background was stamped with all the sentiments. Before taking any of the stamps off the clear plastic, I adhered the plastic (with all the stamps on it!) to my Misti cover with repositionable tape... then I inked up the whole sheet and stamped up a bunch of these sentiments on 4-1/4 x 4-1/4 sheets of card stock... so all I have to do is cut them apart as needed... or use them as backgrounds as I did for this card... it's such a cool way of using your stamps!
Your next stop on the hop is Sheri Gilson.

These are both so gorgeous! The beach scene is one of my favorite sets and I love how it looks watercolored like you did. The dimension is fabulous too. Your flower card is amazing as well. I never think to make a stamped background using my sentiments. It look great!

The scene is just perfect for that style of card and I love the mounds of sand and the umbrella with the chair.
neat idea for your background on the second card and love your flowers!
