ETA: This is my second post of the day. If you’re looking for the MISTI/Pinkfresh Blog Hop, click HERE.
Hi there, crafty friends. I’m honored to be part of this blog hop celebrating THIS new release…
I started by stamping THIS background stamp on card panels created from THIS card stock using THIS ink. Next, I cut 4×4 squares of colored card stock and stamped the same background with coordinating ink for a tone on tone look. I cut the pieces into one inch strips and that gave me enough strips for four cards. I adhered the strips down with fun foam for dimension.
I stamped images and sentiments from THIS stamp set with THIS ink and clear heat embossed them to add some shine. I used THESE coordinating dies to cut them out and added them to the cards along with sentiments from THESE sentiment strips. I finished off the design with clear droplet embellishments.

I’m not a fan of the crackle or reverse crackle background look but I have to say you did a great job. I like the subtle colors you chose. Thank you for sharing.
