Guest Design for Pink and Main...Day 4 (Final Day)

 

For my final day of guest designing for Pink and Main I thought I would use the super cute Pig Time stamp set. This set is absolutely adorable and perfect for making a set of cards with the four cute little piggies! 

I used the scraps from my first set of floral cards to create the side banner on my layout and then just used. a card stock stitched circle element to ground my little piggy images on. For simplicity and mass producing I made all my cards have the same layout and elements. I then stamped the sentiment to go with each image in the lower right hand corner.

Guest Design for Pink and Main Day 3

 

I am back today with another card using one of these great floral stamps from the April release. These florals are the best, I am so glad to have these in my stash! I decided to use the Roses stamp and play with some watercolors today.

I am a sketch using crafter! I love using them, especially Mojo Monday!I used the new Mojo Monday Sketch #558

I embossed the rose with some white detail embossing powder and then watercolored the rose with some pearlized watercolors I had in my stash. I just love the look of the shimmery rose on the dark paper.
