Ink. Stamp. Share. May Showcase Blog Hop

Welcome to the Ink. Stamp. Share. May Showcase Blog Hop as we share projects we are currently working on using current projects from Stampin' Up! You will be visiting with wonderful Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world as they share their ideas and projects to help inspire you.

With the launch of a new catalog, it's so much fun to be able to play with new products and I just love the new Badger Besties (item #156930) stamp set. The images are so cute and I love the versatility of the sentiments in this set. I paired it with the wonderful new Pattern Party Host Designer Series Paper (item #155426) that is an exclusive Host Reward that you can earn Free with a qualifying order or party. This amazing paper pack contains 48 sheets of 12"x12" Designer Series Paper with 4 each of 12 double sided designs. One side is predominantly black and white while the reverse side has wonderful color combinations. It is definitely my pick from this new Annual Catalog.

This cute clean and simple card is easy to assemble and the cute badger is easy to color. I used the Smoky Slate Stampin' Blends Combo with the Light Basic Black Stampin' Blends Marker to color the body of the badger and used the Color Lifter to create highlights and blend. For the flower I used the Light Fresh Freesia Stampin' Blend and I used the Dark Pool Party Stampin' Blend for the leaf. Using the Dark Pool Party Stampin' Blends Marker, I colored the bottom of the circle to create the ground and blended it with the Color Lifter. For the Rhinestones, I colored them with the Dark Fresh Freesia Stampin' Blends Marker and added one to the center of the flower and the other two to decorate the sentiment for a touch of bling. The sentiment was stamped onto a 1/2" strip of Basic White cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and I used the Lovely Labels Pick A Punch on each end for a decorative touch. I really do love this stamp set and with all the wonderful designs in the Pattern Party Designer Series Paper, I think that I will be having a lot of fun creating many more cards with these products.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my blog. I hope that my card will help to inspire you to create your own fun designs with the new products in the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog. There are so many options to choose from.
