Welcome to our first Blog Hop of the May! I am super excited to be able to introduce you to one of my favorite Hostess stamp sets from the upcoming Stampin Up catalog- A Whole Lot Of Lovely! Time to get your calendar out & schedule a stampin' party so you can get this set Free- Anyway kept this one CAS. I paired this new stamp with the Gold Soiree DSP (love!) & it just went together so well with the new Mint Macaron Lace Trim! And see that circle? That's Watermelon Wonder! FYI- Cantaloupe & Watermelon make for an awesome color combo & fruit salad...Yum! Ok it must be close to dinner time, I need to finish up this post & get some grub so I better show you my other card- On this one I used my new In Color Stampin Write Markers (Watermelon, Cucumber, & Dijon). Now you know how sometimes when you use markers directly on the stamp the result can be a little splotchy? Well I decided to fix that little problem by using my blender pen dipped in those colors to create a pretty watercolor look. I even used the markers to add a little more depth to the letters. Finshed it off with one of the new In Color flower embellies! I have to also point that that awesome striped DSP well its actually called Envelope Paper but I can already tell I love it so much on cards it may never actually be turned in to any envelopes LOL! Well before you go visit Sarah I want to give you a little heads up that you might be able to sneak a peek at more brand new Stampin Up goodies if you check out this Friday's TGIF Challenge! Ok lets go see Sarah!
