Blast from the Past Blog Hop – June 2010
I’m so glad you stopped by today! I’ve been looking forward to this day since our last Blast from the Past Blog Hop! I had so much fun checking out all of the amazing creations from everyone who signed up and I’m excited to see what y’all created with our Blast from the Past challenge this month! The color inspiration challenge here was optional for our players and I’m looking forward to seeing who took the challenge! The only other stipulation was to use a TE Stamp set released March 2010 or before. If you missed out on signing up for this blog hop, don’t worry! Our next blog hop is scheduled for Tuesday, July 20th. Click here to read all the details and find out how you can sign up to join us!
Not only does one lucky blog hopper win the TE Stamp set of their choice, but we’re letting everyone else in on a great Blast from the Past deal too! For two days only (June 22nd & 23rd) all stamp sets released in June 2009 are 20% off at the TE Store! That’s a great way to snag what are still some of our most popular stamp sets:
For the Love of Cupcakes
Beary Special
Beary Special Accessories
Beach Bum
Faith & Hope
It had been a while since I inked my Beary Special set, but it still remains one of my favorites for sweet baby cards and birthday cards for teddy bear lovers of all ages! I started by stamping the backpack teddy onto a piece of patterned paper from the Earth Love collection and paper piecing the image. I colored the bear with Copics and highlighted the flowers in the patterned paper with Illuminate Glitter Top Coat. The image was cut out with Spellbinders Labels 8. A sweet and simple layout and a little bit of ribbon finished off the card!
I hope our Blast from the Past blog hop inspires you to take a look through your TE stamp collection and get creative with one of your well-loved sets! I know you’re not going to want to miss the rest of these projects so keep right on hoppin’ and follow the links below!
