Welcome to the Artisan Design Team weekly blog hop! Since it's the fifth Wednesday of the month, we've been given a chance to share projects using whatever products inspire us!! We are planning to have so much fun with this idea that we'll go "WILD" creating for you! That's not all. Many of the ten Artisan winners will be offering blog candy so that you can have some wild times yourself leaving comments and having the chance to win! It's a truly-wild-win-win and we hope you enjoy it.
So get ready for an ex-cit-ing time as you participate with us. Did you arrive from Amy Bollman's blog? I just love what she does with stamps, paper and ink EVERY time!
I have had some items that I pre-ordered and just had to leave sitting around until I could get to them, but let me tell you, I knew exactly what I couldn't wait to play with for this post. The Gingham Garden Designer Series Paper is so very "me" and I think it won't be long until I use this pack of DSP and it's gorgeous Designer Washi Tape up entirely! It reminds me of a sunny English country garden.
You know what's growing in this garden? Flowers made with our NEW Buttons & Blossoms Simply Pressed Clay Molds. I used re-inkers to color the clay. Do you remember my trick of painting our rhinestone jewels by adding a tiny bit of ink to Crystal Effects and painting it on? I thought Melon Mambo rhinestones were just the right element to add some depth to the clay flowers.
Now for the blog candy details. I'll be offering ONE lucky winner....
Brand new Dapper Dad and Beyond Plaid Clear-Mount Stamp Sets, a roll of Summer Starfruit Satin Stitched Ribbon, a pack of Vintage Designer Buttons, and today's card. (US only.)
At the end of this post, just leave a comment and you'll have the chance to win these products FREE! As you follow the hop leave a comment on each blog as you go (only one comment per blog, please) and increase your chances of winning a prize from one of us!
Would you add my URL from this post to your 1.Pinterest or 2.Facebook page AND 3. write a comment? Put the links in my comments box and your name will be given up to three chances in the draw. DRAWING ends May 31 at 10:00 PM (EST) and will be announced on Monday, June 3.
Place an online ORDER and you'll be in my drawing for a NEW Crisp Cantaloupe stamp pad!
Next stop is to see the darling page that Erica Cerwin has for you!
All supplies by Stampin' Up!
