Hello & Happy Monday Everyone!
Is it a Happy Monday? I might beg to differ
on this one... I have to return to work today...
So, I'm gonna say NOPE! It's not a Happy Monday! 😏
But I'm sure you guys think it's an AWESOME Monday...
So, I'm gonna go with that! 😀
I had a great week off from work, it went toooo FAST!
But I think we ALL say that! 😉
We went to check out some property to see if that's
where our "forever home" maybe one day soon and
went to visit some old friends and Family too!
It was a very nice laid back kind of week -
Those are my favorite kinds of weeks!
I have another THEME kind of week for ya -
This week I decided to focus on
"BORDER STAMPS"!
Today's Project was created using the
Fiskars Mini Geo Borders Stamp set
I was going for an Ombre background
so I used 3 different shades of Pink Ink and
the arrow border stamp that's in the Fiskars set -
I placed it in my Stamparatus and just moved my cardstock
up as I changed the pink shades from light to dark -
Once I did that I had to find an image to match my background -
Luckily for me... I have a ton of images I've colored over the last couple of years
sitting in a large baggie waiting to be used -
The Sweet Hippo image is from CTMH (Safari Ballet)
and I used my Zig Watercolor pens to color her up
I used a cross-stitched heart die in grey cardstock
to place behind my hippo
I also used my favorite stitched rectangle die from MCT
The sentiment is from PaperTrey Ink called (Signature Greetings)
I added some clear lucy's cards gems and placed my card front
on a Mambo Pink card base
I think it turned out so sweet - 😊
Thanks for stopping by!
Have a FABULOUS DAY!!!
