Stampendous and Tombow Blog Hop


Hi and happy hopping on this fine Saturday! This weekend my Stampendous teammates are hopping with some fabulous designers from Tombow. Each team is trying out something new and we are excited to share what we made with them, for the Stampendous team we are trying out the new Tombow Recycled Pencils in a beautiful set of 24!


There are prizes for our friends who hop along this weekend and enjoy seeing some of the Tombow creations from earlier this week, too. For details on the prize packages to two lucky commenters, go to the Stampendous blog post today.

My project today is using Cling Pop Up Forest Stamps Set and matching dies along with Forest Sayings Perfectly Clear Stamp Set. For all my color on the tree, I used Tombow Recycled Colored Pencils and Dual Brush Pens.

Here is a photo journal of how I made my card.

Stamped and colored leaf branches in Purple Ash fall colors.

Stamped and colored the tree trunk (did more coloring
after photo was taken to get rid of so much yellow)

Scribbled separately blues, then greens in Dual Brush
Pens onto craft mat and sprayed with water.
Critical: Use a small brush to swirl in circles to
get bigger beads of color.

Trim to size and glue onto matted 5 x 7 inch card base.
Tip: Use glue all over in light circle motions so the
wrinkles will flatten out.

Use Tombow Foam Dots to create different dimensions of
branches.
Stamp sentiment onto card base.
Here is the completed card.

      Thank you Jean! Those leaves were die cut with the matching dies, thank goodness, because I'm not able to do that intricate work like I use to do.

      Thank you, Mary! I enjoyed coloring with pencils for this card. It creates more detail than I can get with markers these days!

Let's Celebrate Plain Jane Style!

There is an Anni-Verve-Sary party going on today! Verve Stamp Company is 2 years old! The hop started at Verve's blog , so come hop on board and see over 5 dozen projects that are sure to get your Verve on! I've been waiting for the right time to blog about this project and when the opportunity came to join in the anniversary blog hop for Verve I knew it was time. My blog hop project today uses all Plain Jane Bible verses from Verve. I saw this project at Susan Roberts gallery on Splitcoaststampers and went to her blog to get the details . I decided to make one for my mother as a Christmas present...in 2008. Yep, I just now finished it and I have the blog hop to thank. Using sketches would have made this a whole lot faster. LOL The two cards shown in the picture above use the latest Plain Jane release for Psalm 121:1-2 (hanging on box) and Hebrews 11:1 (in front of box). And I'll give the details below, but first here's a slide show of the whole year. Hebr...
