Stampin' Up! Love What You Do!

 Love What You Do


Get Watercoloring in 3,2,1
Love the watercolor look? Reach for your Blender Pens! Just squeeze your Classic Stampin’ Pad to pool ink in the lid and pick up the color using your Blender Pen. The special solution inside the pen gives you a soft, smooth watercolor effect—and you don’t even need water! Magic!

This is a fun technique without a lot of expense. If you make a card using this technique, please share it with me.

Take care,
Cindy

Facebook Live Replay - Tractor & Co

 This week I shared the lovely Tractor & Co stamp set with coordinating dies. I grew up on a farm and have been around tractors forever.  My grandpa and my dad both farmed, now I am still around tractors as my husband and son still use them for hobby farming. My dad was a Ford man so consequently the tractors that we use today are both Fords. The Blue Ford tractor inspired me when I was making the card. 

Here is a close up of the card:


Project Recipe:
STAMP SETS: Tractor & Co (Online Exclusive), Sweet Blooms (For the Grass)

INK: Azure Afternoon, Memento Black, Smokey Slate, Garden Green, Crumb Cake

PAPER: Azure Afternoon, Garden Green, Timeless Plaid, White, Black & Smokey Slate Scraps
