Happy New Year!

I am so happy to be back with Retro Rubber Challenge Blog Team! I hope that you all are ready to get creative again for the new year. Dust those stamps off that you haven't used in a while or have never used and join the challenges! The challenge is "White Out", your card should be mainly white with an accent of one of the colors on the inspirational photo below.

Today I am sharing a "Happy New Year" card. The sentiment I am using is from a Hero Arts Stamp and Cut stamp set called Merry. I believe this set was released sometime in October 2016.

Here is my card, I started out by die cutting the background with the Hero Arts background Party Confetti Fancy Die. I used some gold glitter paper on the back of the die cut. I cut the champagne glasses with my silhouette, I then stamped my sentiment with versamark and used some gold embossing powder.

Are you ready to play along? The rules to play along with Retro Rubber are very simple, make sure the stamp you use on your project is at least one year or older. For more details on the rules, you can find them over on Retro Rubber Challenge blog. Be sure to stop over on the Retro Rubber Challenge blog to get more inspiration, the design team has some wonderful creations!

Thank you for stopping by, you have until January 26 to join the fun!

Hello everyone!

I am here with A Blog Named Hero to share with you my project using Hero Arts products and Jane Doodles stamp set “Party Time”. I am so excited to be the first to tell you that we’re collaborating with Jane Doodles this month. Our challenge will launch on Monday so be on the lookout for that!

A Blog Named Hero is collaborating with Jane Doodles all month. I am showcasing the stamp set "Party Time". Here is my project:

closer look of the image, do you see the glossy accents?

I don't know about you, but I have lots of washi tape and I never seem to use it, except to hold down something on my big shot. I needed something to use as the background so it would show through the Hero Arts Party Confetti Fancy Die. I pulled out four colors of washi tape and lined them up on the front of my card. Here is a pic.....

After I lined the washi tape on the front of my card, I trimmed the edges, here is what it looks like finished.

I die cut the Hero Arts Party Confetti Fancy Die and adhered it to the front of my card with adhesive. I stamped the sentiment from the Hero Arts "Oh Happy Day" with versamark and used the Hero Arts White Embossing Powder and heat set it. I then fuzzy cut the cake and presents from the Jane Doodles Stamp set Party Time and colored the images with copics. I then added some glossy accents to give the cake and presents some dimension. I added them elements to my card with foam tape. There you have it, a clean and simple card!

Thank you so much Jane Doodles for collaborating with A Blog Named Hero this month! Thank you all for visiting. Please come back again soon!
