Hello, again! July is here, and it is full and summer fun. Spellbinders really hit it out of the park this month with all of the fabulous kits. I had a hard time choosing what to use for this blog hop!
You may have just arrived from Rebecca Keppel's blog, isn't she amazing?!
I did finally settle on the Clear Stamp/Die kit and the Embossing Folder of the month. For those that like a video, check it out here!
You can see that I did a rainbow ink blending here. This card uses Distress Oxides in Saltwater Taffy, Squeezed Lemonade, and Salvaged Patina. The cardstock was spritzed with some Pearlized Water and left damp when it was embossed with the embossing folder, to accentuate the embossing.
And a NEW RELEASE product snuck in here too, the Essentials Diamonds nesting dies! They match the shape of the diamonds in the design of the embossing folders perfectly!
These popsicles were stamped with Distress Oxides also. I used so many colors!!
This version of the design uses Distress Inks on the background in the same colors. They are definitely more vibrant.
I think that red berry and orange popsicle might be my favorite! The Aura sequins really zhuzh up this card.
And you gotta love all the sentiments in this set! Especially that almost every one has a coordinating die!
If you are interested in the supplies I used, I have provided links below.
Some of the supplies listed below are affiliate links, some are not. If you use an affiliate link here to make a purchase, I may get a small compensation. I only use things that I love.
Thank you so much for stopping by, and don't miss the rest of the hop!
Next up is Jill Hilliard, and you will love her stuff!
