Dropping in to say HI | Acorny Thanks You | Stamp Review Crew Blog Hop
12:00:00 PM
Im sorry about the minor mishap with this post last Friday. If you dont know what Im talking about - then just ignore this.
Thanks so much for stopping by today. Today, I'm having a part in the blog hop with the Stamp Review Crew once again. This is a group of stamping enthusiasts - each blog hop features ONE STAMP SET, thus showing how versatile that particular set it. Have you just arrived here from Tanya Boser's blog? If so - thanks for visiting!
Today, the hop revolves around a stamp set called 'Acorny Thank You.'
This stamp set is VERY good value. It is just $26 AUD and is Photopolymer, so SUPER easy to use! As you travel around this hop, you will see some AMAZING uses for this set.
My Card
Initially, I saw each of the 'nuts' as faces. So, that was the idea behind my card. I might try that again later, but in this instance, I didn't like it and it ended up in the bin.
But, I loved the shapes. So, I selected three colours and made a card using the shapes.
I started with a piece of whisper white and using Basic Grey Ink, I started stamping.
Then, in the other direction (and using another stamp) I continued stamping in Delightful Dijon. Finally, using crumb cake, I stamped in the other direction using the original stamp.
I then mounted this on a sheet of Basic Grey card stock. I mounted this on a sheet from the Serene Scenery DSP set. Finally, I mounted this on a Basic Grey card.
For the sentiment, I stamped using basic black on a piece of Whisper White. I then cut out a banner in Crumb Cake from the banners framelit set. I then cut a small piece of burlap ribbon and stapled these together and using some foam adhesive strips, I stuck down to the card.

Great card, Bruno! Love the colors you used very masculine and "fallish". The sentiment banner looks great too and love how it's stapled together.
ReplyDeleteLove the graphic design you created for fall!
ReplyDeleteGreat cards, Bruno! I can totally see what you mean about faces now. I would have loved a peek at your first try!
ReplyDeleteClever way to use the stamps! Love the feeling of motion, and the clean graphic feel :)
ReplyDeleteYou always come up with a different use for the stamp images. I love your sentiment piece!
ReplyDeleteI like how you also come up with a different use for sets. Great idea and love the color combo you use!
