Skipping Stones Design August Blog Hop

Hi Everyone,

its blog hop time at Skipping Stones Designs.
You probably arrived from the very talented Tanja Kabel.



I made this card with the set Best of Birds. I stamped the bird and water colored him and the background. Added some splatters and Washi tape. On the left side I put a strip of wood paper to give it more interest. 

This is the set I used:



Your next stop on the hop is Ilina - she has an amazing card waiting for you.
In case you get lost - just go back to Skipping Stones Design and you'll find the complete list there.

Happy hopping!

The birds collection is great and you did it beautiful justice with your card! The wood paper on the side was just the right touch!

Love how you have torn the washi tape and popped on the sentiment in two half's...very creative. Pretty colours and such a cute bird stamp x

Well, you certainly have been busy...and to excellent effect. This is such a wonderful image and the sentiment is lovely. Your coloring is, as usual, perfect but the way you've enhanced this card with these disparate element makes it shine.

Mirror Image Stamping with So Suzy and the MISTI

Hi Everyone, I am so happy to be part of this wonderful event - the collaboration between So Suzy and the MISTI from My Sweet Petunia doing mirror image stamping.  This event is going on for the ENTIRE  MONTH! We are demonstrating the  Mirror Image Stamp    which coordinates with the Misti Stamping Tool! All month long, different bloggers will post a card using the  Mirror Image Stamp .  In my tutorial today, I will show you how use the  Mirror Image Stamp  on your cards. You can basically double your stamp supplies that way! The  mirror image stamp  is  a 4.25" x 5.5" piece of red rubber with no foam backing. So much larger than the other mirror image stamps out there and therefore much more useful!
