Hello and a Video Tutorial

Hello Stampers! Summer seems so short. I wish it would last forever. I guess Summer could last forever with this bright and cheery card I made using A Muse Studio's Hibiscus Border set. I created one almost identical a while ago using Tombow Dual Brush Markers to create a faux watercolor effect. 

Summer

Hello! It's been pretty hot lately. Summer is in full swing for sure. I pulled out my inks and dies to create this Summer themed card. I love this Dr. Seuss quote from A Muse Studio.

Hello Summer

Hello! I wasn't able to stamp for a short time due to my arm and hand issues but I am so happy to be able to do a bit of stamping the last couple of days. Summer has been awesome with the beautiful weather and time spent at the beach with my family. This card is more like a tribute to Summer. I am using A Muse Studio's Hibiscus Border set. This set is only available while supplies last. You can find it here. I am also sponsoring over at the Tuesday Throwdown challenge this week. The challenge theme is one layer. Let's just say I took a bit of a detour when I was creating a one layer card.

Be A Flamingo

Hello! I am loving this Be Yourself set from A Muse Studio's June Collection. This set is available while supplies last. I started by stamping the background. I then die cut the flamingo and stamped the sentiment.

Tropical Blooms

Hello! This is the last of the Tropical Blooms flowers that I watercolored and embossed. I love to be able to use up extra things or scraps. I am keeping it a red, white and blue theme for Summer's 4th of July celebration. I started by creating a tag and freehand cut it to the size I need.  I then stamped the small hibiscus in blue right onto of the tag and the pinstriped patterned paper.

Hello

Hello! I am still using up the extra flowers that I colored and embossed. I only have one more large flower left to use up. On this card I used A Muse Studio's Be Yourself and Tropical Blooms. I started by creating the watercolor background using Tombow markers and let it dry.

Tropical Blooms

Hello! This is another one of the flowers from A Muse Studio's Tropical Blooms set that I had made extras of. I had to find a way to incorporate this awesome Dr. Seuss sentiment into this card.

Hello Summer

Hello! Our youngest kiddo finished school yesterday and we are just taking it easy for today. I love Summer and the non-rushing aspect of it.  I am celebrating the beginning of Summer using these two sets from A Muse Studio's limited edition June collection called Be Yourself and Tropical Blooms.

Be Yourself

Hello! The weekend is here! I am looking forward to having some fun family time. We have so much planned and a bonus is school will be out for our high schooler in just a few short days. 

I have been loving using stamps from Amuse Studio. The designs are so fun. 

Hello... A Muse Studio June Collection Reveal

Hello! I am loving these new stamps from A Muse Studio. I've been having so much fun coming up designs for them. This set is called Be Yourself from the June collection, which is available to order today. I started by using Tombow markers to create the watercolor background. I then randomly stamped the leaves.
