The Craft's Meow Release Blog Hop

Hi there!  Welcome, welcome!  You should have arrived here from   Karen Baker's blog, if not, go to The Craft's Meow Blog for all of the info for today's festivities!  Let's get started, shall we?!


For my card today, I picked up Kaitlyn's set, Good Times.  LOVE this set, seriously check out the sentiment, lol!  To start, I stamped the arrow image repeatedly in different colors and cut them all out.  I then adhered them to a Marshmallow panel.


Popping up the panel onto a white card base, I then stamped and cut out the frame and sentiment, adhering it with foam tape.

I will leave you with this little project...


Using different distress inks, I covered the front of my white card base.  I then took the arrow image and spritzed it with water, stamping straight onto the front.  I love the way it reacts with the inks, leaving a ghost image.  I then added my sentiment and matching threaded buttons.

Thank you so much for coming by today.  Next, on your stop is the lovely Mabelle R-O's blog.  Don't forget to leave comments on everyone's blog for a chance to win all of the sets for this month!
