Welcome to The Ton's 2017 Anniversary Release Blog Hop!
I am so excited to hop along with The Ton's Design Team and special guests for this celebration! If you haven't already, you need to get busy looking......
The Ton has 26 new stamps for their 2017 Anniversary Release which includes three free gift with purchases. For more information on The Ton’s inventive products, head over to The Ton’s blog. All new release products are available now!
Brushed Hugs is a large bold script sentiment with tons of suppporting sentiments in the set. I decided to white heat emboss the "Hugs" on vellum and hand trim out. I love how elegant this script is! I layered it over some neutral polka dot paper and added, with foam adhesive, one of the supporting sentiments white heat embossed onto black cardstock. To embellish, I added some clear sequins.
********************************
My next card uses my favorite set of this release.......Fresh Cut Poppies. If you love multi-step stamping and florals............this set is for you! For all three of my poppies, I started with my lightest color of ink and my Misti, working my way to the darkest layer. I did the same process with the leaves and stems. Did I mention how EASY it is to line up the layers to stamp? They ARE so easy and makes stamping a card like this a breeze! I added my sentiment (pieced from Brushed Hugs) by white heat embossing it onto a thick strip of black cardstock and adhering with foam adhesive. More clear sequins in several sizes were added as finishing touches.
