I’m so sorry I haven’t been posting lately. I’ve been creating just not taking pictures and actually blogging them. 🙂 I hope this is worth the wait.
I’ve been playing with the new 2016-2018 Stampin’ Up! In Colors creating some cards to showcase them and here is what I’ve come up with. I got the initial idea from a photo Cecelia Nardus Erasmus posted in a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator group.

Dapper Denim

Emerald Envy

Flirty Flamingo

Peekaboo Peach

Sweet Sugarplum
I started by putting a piece of painters tape across the Hardwood stamp. Then I inked the stamp, removed the tape (I almost forgot this a couple of times), put the paper on the stamp and rub the back of it with your hand. My first attempt I used some older washi tape that I have laying around to mask off the white strip but the ink went through it.
