Colour Blocking and Clear Block Stamping!

Oh, hey there!

Are you ready for a fab new challenge from The Friday Mashup? The oh-so-talented Amanda has a great mashup for us this week; Colour-Blocking and Clear Block Stamping.

If you've never tried these techniques before, have a peek here for Clear Block Stamping (so much fun!). Colour blocking is simply creating a background or element with big, separated chunks of colour.

I've used my long Block H to ink up Soft Sky, So Saffron and Crisp Cantaloupe. I love how it has turned out. Again, I've reached for my "go to" baby stamp set, Zoo Babies. I'm fairly confident stamps don't come cuter than this!

Check out the challenge:

1. Create a project using "Clear Block Stamping (use your clear block as a stamp)"
2. Create a project using "Colour-blocking"
3. Or Mash it Up and create a project using "Clear Block Stamping & Colour-blocking"

We can't wait to see what you come up with :)

Thanks for stopping by!

Zoo Babies!

A fun new challenge for us at The Friday Mashup! We have a great sketch from Heidi, and she's challenge us to use our favourite stamp set from the new catalogue.

I chose Zoo Babies. I fell in love with this set the second I saw it and have used it multiple times now. I stamped the giraffe in Crushed Curry and cut it out with the Oval framelit. Using the new stretched ribbon, I framed the oval and backed it with a larger oval of Baked Brown Sugar.

The embossing folder int he background is the super-fun stripes from the new holiday catalogue.... Excited?! :) Stay tuned for my sneak peek week coming up!

Check out the mashup!

1. Create a project using the "Sketch".
2. Create a project with a "Favorite New Stamp Set".
3. Or Mash it Up and create a project "using the Sketch with your Favorite NEW Stamp Set".

Thanks for stopping by today!
