2018 A Team reunited for the Holidays

in Artisan Design Team 2018, Cardmaking, Creativity on 10/03/19

Hello my stamping friends!  A couple of the “old” 2018 Artisan Friends have decided to get together for a Blog Hop today.  We are showcasing fun crafting projects for the holidays.  I’m so excited for this mini reunion:)

You may have just arrived here from my wonderful and talented friend  from New Zealand,  Susan Wong.  I adore her projects for today’s Hop!

For today’s hop, I’ve focused my attention on the Holiday Catalogue and chose the Come To Gather Suite.  Thanksgiving is in 11 days in Canada.  What better theme than Thanksgiving for this hop today.  I’m grateful and blessed for this amazing opportunity of gathering with my artisan 2018 friends from all across the globe.

Tip #1:  Stamp the image a couple of times without re inking in between creates lighter stamped images like a shadow.

Tip #2:  Crumple in your hands the stamped pumpkin images to create a vintage look.  I also love the specs image from the Come to Gather Stamp Set.  This also adds a special touch to the pumpkins.

Have you gotten your hands on the new in colors?  They are my ultimate favourite color combination.  Today I’m highlighting the Pretty Peacock in color.  See in the image below.  It coordinates beautifully with the pool party color.

The Come To Gather Suite includes rich colourful embellishments that are perfect for your fall projects.

Here’s the beautiful color combination that I have used.  It’s Fall in Canada.  This color combination is perfect for my favorite season.

Pretty Peacock
Early Espresso
Soft Sea Foam
Pool Party

 

Next on the hop is my sweet friend Elizabeth Price  from USA.  I love her creative style.  She brings a vintage and classic look to all her projects.  Click on the Blog Badge below to get to her blog.

If you live in Canada, I would love to be your demonstrator!  Click on the supply list below to order these items.  Use Hostess October Code   DJHBEFDZ to receive perks from my VIP club.   View all of the current promotions by clicking HERE.  And if you are from another country, you can still take a glimpse of the products listed and shop with a demonstrator near you. Happy Stamping!
