Picture Perfect Birthday Collection Artisan Blog Hop

Welcome to the 2018 Artisan Design Team March Blog Hop featuring the Picture Perfect Birthday Stamp Set and the Picture Perfect Designer Series Paper.  You may have just arrived here from my sweet friend Kayla MacAulay from Australia.  Did you love her creations? Her crafting projects are so festive!

The Picture Perfect Party Suite is amazing.  I love the vibrant colors this collection brings with photographic images and festive party designs.  It’s easy to create birthday projects for your loved ones.

I started to create one project and couldn’t stop.  This collection is so darling.

One of the highlights in the Picture Perfect Birthday Stamp Set is the beautiful font that were created for the greetings. This stamp set comes with 6 different greetings.  I used 4 of them in my projects today.  I also used the bow in my white card.  The images were stamped with the two step stamp technique. It creates a 3D effect to the bow. The Island Indigo and the Lemon lime Twist 1/4″ Ombre Ribbon were also used.  They are not part of the Picture Perfect Party Suite but they coordinate with the Picture Perfect Party 6×6 Designer Series Paper.
