Welcome to our From the Heart Stamps blog hop! Our theme this month is 'Meet the Design Team' to introduce those of us that are new. Our designers will be showcasing lots of gorgeous projects and telling us a bit about themselves, too.
As you hop along, please leave a comment on each blog. One random commenter will be selected on each blog to win an image of choice from the FTHS store. Additionally, we will have a game with great prizes on the FTHS blog!
If you have arrived from Angela's blog, you are in the right place, if not why don’t you start on the From the Heart Stamps blog, so you don’t miss anything.
Here is my project, using my very favorite image, Birdbrain Needs Coffee. When I saw her, it was love at first sight! For this card I used one of my favorite techniques, which is believe it or not, fussy cutting. I find it very therapeutic after a long day.
Here are the supplies I have used to make my card:
Papers: Basic Grey Grand Bazaar, Neenah cardstock, DCWV cardstock, SU! Kraft cardstock
Accessories: Simon Says Stamps Coffee Cup die, My Favorite Thinks Pierced Circle die, Copic Markers
Here's a little bit about me:
What is something about you that none of the other team members know?
I work full-time in a hospital as a registered nurse/diabetes educator.
What is your favorite coloring technique?
I still consider myself a beginner, but I love Copic markers.
What is your favorite category of images in the FTHS store?
If you look around my blog, I think it is fairly evident that I LOVE BIRDBRAINS!!!
Describe your crafting space.
It’s my very small happy space, but it’s all mine!
Tips:
What is your best tip for taking good photos of your cards?
Have good lighting and a smart camera.
What is your best coloring tip?
Practice, practice, practice…and remember, it’s only paper. I often print extra images and on days when my mojo is missing, I color just for fun.
Thanks for hopping with us today. The hop will end on Monday October 5th at 6 am EST. Winners will be posted on the From the Heart Stamps Blog on Wednesday October 7th.
Now head over to Calypso's blog and take a look at her fabulous creations.
Thanks so much for stopping by and good luck!
Aloha, Brenda
