Another Totally Stampalicious Release Blog Hop!!!


It's time for another NEW RELEASE from Totally Stampalicious and we are soooo EXCITED to share ANOTHER FOUR NEW BUGABOO Stamp Sets ~ Morning Margaret, Cafe Scarlette, Red Hat Stella and Sweet Birthday Kids!  If you hopped here from Laurie's blog, you are on the right track - if you didn't, you might want to start at the beginning and see ALL of the wonderful creations.  :)  The only thing that could make it even MORE FUN is to add some PRIZES to the mix!!  As usual, we will select THREE winners from THREE randomly selected DT blogs so be sure to comment on all of them to increase your chances to win!!

I decided to use the super-cute Sweet Birthday Kids for my card and combined a few challenges to create my card:

1.  Mercy's Tuesday Sketch
2. There She Goes Inspiration Challenge #63

3. TCP Tuesday #118 - Use twine on your project.
4. Practical Scrappers - Embossing somewhere on your card.  I used dry embossing for the top white panel and heat embossing on the main image.
5. Tuesday Throwdown - Show us some stitching on your project.

I LOVE the colors in the inspiration picture and knew they'd be perfect for a birthday card.  I made Mercy's sketch into a square card, added a sentiment to the bottom left corner and voila:

Recipe - Stamps: Sweet Birthday Kids (Totally Stampalicious)  Paper: Whisper White, Tempting Turquoise, Tangerine Tango, SU! DSP  Ink: Versafine Onyx Black, Memento Tuxedo Black  Accessories: Sizzix embossing folder (Tiger Stripes), Nestabilities, sewing machine, various punches, paper piercer, ribbon, button, twine, green brad, Copics, clear embossing powder


Here's the entire Blog Hop list just in case you get lost along the way!
