Hybrid Hello ~ Monday Montage



Hello and welcome to our Monday Montage Blog Hop!  This group of ten talented stampers have some fabulous projects to share with you this week, so be sure to hop all the way through so you don't miss anything!

I've been trying to use MDS and my e-cutter a bit more...I will admit, I was a bit intimated by all of it at first, but the more I play, the more I love it!   My creation today is a hybrid card.  I stamped the images, but the "Hello" sentiment was imported from MDS to my Silhouette and cut...LOVE!

Supplies Used:

Paper ~ Perfect Plum, Whisper White, Gold Foil

Stamp Sets ~ Happy Watercolor, Simple Stems, Beautiful Today (MDS)

Ink ~ Metallic Gold, Whisteria Wonder, Elegant Eggplant

Other Supplies ~ Itty Bitty Punch Pack (circle), Gold Sequin Trim, Silhouette Cameo e-cutter, MDS

 

This didn't turn out quite as I had pictured in my head (how often does that happen to you?!??!), but I still kind of like it :-)  It certainly is fun to be able to add some different elements to your projects when you break out the MDS and e-cutter!  To those of you who are afraid to take the leap, don't be!  Jump in and have some fun!

 

Now it's time to hop on over to Cathy's creation for today...you're sure to love it!  Or if you prefer to hop backwards, you can head on back to Amy's project...she inspires me each and every week!  Either way, just make sure you make the whole loop and don't miss any of us.  And don't forget to leave us some love on our blogs...we love hearing from you!

 

  Thanks for hopping along with us today!

 

Happy Stamping!

 





Simple {Stems} Thank You

Happy Monday!  We are lucky enough to have another beautiful day of sunshine today, but rumor has it, it may be our last for a day or two.  If we can have nice weather on the weekends, I can deal with the crummy weather during the week!

I had some extra time this morning before the rest of my house woke up and had time to stamp...hooray!  That makes for a great Monday!  And what makes it even better?  Playing with new goodies!  I told myself I wasn't going to buy anymore flower stamp sets, but my will power disappeared after seeing one to many fun cards with the Simple Stems stamp set.

 

Supplies Used:

Paper ~ Coastal Cabana, Whisper White, Silver Foil, Silver Fancy Foil Velum

Ink ~ Coastal Cabana, Calypso Coral, Gumball Green

Stamp Sets ~ Simple Stems, Hip Notes, Papillion Potpourri

Other Supplies ~ Mini Butterfly Punch

 

This is a pretty simple card, but the silver foil and velum really dress it up!

 

Hope you find some time to stamp today too!

 

Happy Monday!
