Enjoy

Hi there Market Street Stamps fans!

My name is Tina and I am thrilled beyond words to be the Market Street Stamps February Guest Designer! The stamps are so fun to work with and the designs are so fresh.

I've been stamping for about three years, it all started by being invited to a home party. Needless to say, like many of you, stamping has become an important hobby to me. I enjoy the creative aspect of this craft and the outlet is a necessary one for me.

You can find more of my work at my blog, Wooded Views.

For this card, I used A Bit of Burlap and Enjoy Today. I am a huge fan of background stamps; and if they are sized to cover a standard card size, it's all the better.

I stamped the Bit of Burlap background with Brilliance Graphite Black ink and then matted it with black cardstock. Once the polka dot paper and the scallop matting was adhered, I wrapped some beautiful ribbon around the panel. I used Bow Easy to make the fluffy bow and adhered that to the ribbon strip with a glue dot.

The cup from Enjoy Today was stamped with Tsukineko Memento ink and then colored with copic markers. How delish is that cup and look at the sweet little hearts on the tea bag....too cute!

The last touch was die cutting the image; as you can see, I only used a portion of the image. Once it was matted, I just added some little black pearls.

Thanks so much for dropping by!
