Stampendous Blog Hop...

(If you're here for the Kreaxions Blog Hop be sure to scroll down to the next post. Its a double blog hop day but that means double the chances at some awesome prizes! )

Its time for another Blog Hop with Stampendous! We are so excited to be able to share the newest Jumbo Clings with you! Have you had a peek at them yet? Pretty, huh?! Want a chance to win one of the new Jumbo's? Keep on reading and give you all the details. Today I'm sharing a few projects that I made for CHA using the new Jumbos... Dogwood Set and also the TigerLily Set

I love Tiger Lily's! We had them in the house that I grew up in. In face they used to grow wild along the woods edge....so pretty! I couldn't wait to use it to create a card. Remember, these are JUMBO clings. The lily stamp alone measures a little over 5 inches by 5 inches, so this is a tall card! I stamped the flower on pink cardstock and then colored it in with copics using dots of color. The leaves were simply handcut from green cardstock and colored with colored pencils. 


Aren't they fun?! Ready to see another card? This next card uses the Dogwood Set. I created this card a few months ago when I first bought my gesso, so I was having fun experimenting. I painted some old sheet music with gesso and then spritzed it with Glimmer Mist. To create more intense color and create drops, I dripped some of the Glimmer Mist using the spray tube end. I colored the Dogwood with Copics and glitzed it up with  Glitter. I added some mulberry paper and tulle. 


Now onto the prizes! In order to be eligible to win one of the new Jumbo clings and a Jumbo stamp mount, be sure to follow along the blog hop and leave comments at all the blogs! You're going to LOVE the projects that everyone has come up with! You should have made it to my blog from Wendy Jordans blog, but if you didn't start from the beginning be sure to head on over to the Stampendous Blog to get back on track.
