tgf-get-well-soon-wm

I stamped a sentiment from the set in Versa mark ink and then embossed it with white embossing powder! Using Distress Inks and Clarity Stamp Stencil brushes I created the background. I cut a circle out of white card stock and used foam tape to adhere it over top of the background. Using foam tape and Tombow liquid adhesive I added all the little characters. Some faux stitching and this card was complete!

Remember to come back on the 15th when we will be having a blog hop and these stamps will be released!

Today is RELEASE DAY for the new JANUARY Stamps at C.C. Designs. As you have seen from our Preview Days, these new stamps revolve around LOVE and Valentine’s Day. There are 3 new Little Pixie stamps, and 3 new Roberto’s Rascals stamps. We also have a new sentiment set called XOXO Sentiments. Another big announcement…..we are going back to the pre-cut rubber for our stamps. We’ll keep the sentiments clear so they are easy to line up on your cards.

CC Balloon Heart.jpg
I coloured up the Balloon Heart Rubber Stamp with my copic markers and then fussy cut her out. I popped her up on a tag cut from the Layering Tag Dies, I created my own background on the tag by repeat stamping one of the sentments from the XOXO Sentiment set!
I then cut a cloud out and stamped another sentiment on that and layered it underneath her feet!
