Good afternoon! It's hump day already, where is the time going?
My post today is inspiration and a link for a blog hop for a company new to me. Crescent Creations is an online craft store that sells lots of crafting goodies including their own digital stamp collections. It's a new release day today and we are having a blog hop to celebrate.
If you comment on each stop and we would love you to subscribe to our platforms you are in with a chance of winning a $25 gift certificate to spend in the store.
The digital images are PNG files, but are white on the inside so you can layer them up. I have chosen to use their brand new Happy Diwali set. This comes with 2 mandalas a candle and 5 sentiments in different fonts.
I have made 2 cards to showcase both the mandalas which are stunning colored in bright colors.
The first mandala reminded my so much of a marigold flower which is synonymous with Diwali -used for garlands and offerings to the Hindu gods.
I printed it onto stamping cardstock and colored it with shades of orange marker.
The second is stunning, I used markers to color the mandala I also added silver paint pen for extra shine.
For both cards I used a paisley digital design paper on which I printed my sentiment.
I matted an A2 black card base with orange and black cardstock to make the colors pop even more. My design paper was added and the mandala was adhered with foam squares for dimension. Finally I added some iridescent bubbles which pick up the colors of the mandalas.
The winner of the hop will be announced on 23rd September on Crescent Creations social media. You should have hopped here from
Tammi and you are heading to our next design team member
Theary. If you have somehow gotten lost you can head back to
Crescent Creations to find your way! You should have commented on all of the design team's inspiration posts or videos.
I will be back later in the month with more inspiration for the new release.
Thank you for stopping by.
