Seed Packet Fun with Graphic 45 and Hampton Art

With the warm weather on the way, it's that time of year to start planting the garden.  I couldn't think of a better card to create that this Home Sweet Home, Graphic 45 card highlighting the seed pack stamps from Hampton Art. 

The images were colored with the Spectrum Aqua's watercolor pens.  They make blending the colors so easy and I love the finished result. 

I hope you have a safe and happy Memorial Day and I'll see you on Wednesday. 

Baby Love with Hampton Art and Graphic 45

I think there is a baby theme on my blog as of late...I better not be drinking the water, LOL.  Graphic 45 and Hampton Art both released baby themed products for CHA so the two of them always pair up so nicely and I did just that on this card. 

The baby was fussy cut out and added to the card with foam tape to give some dimension.  The banner was stamped and cut out and the sentiment in the middle was stamped with blue ink for a perfect blending.  I also stamped little flowers and baby feet on the background paper.  Granted it was already detailed but I thought the darker stamped blue gave a little more layering. 

Hello with Hampton Art

This is a card I created for Hampton Art /CHA.  I love the mason jar...and to make it shaded I just used a sponge dauber and some ink and varied the color, getting lighter at the top.  I think it looks like and old Ball jar....and I love it. 

Here's are some close up of the card so you can see a bit more detail. 

Thinking of You This Labor Day

Happy Labor Day.  I hope everyone is getting to stay home and enjoy this time to be with family and friends.  Today's card is one I created for Hampton Art using Graphic 45 stamps and paper.  I love the little bee stamp...he's my favorite.  I stamped him and fussy cut him out attaching him with foam tape...buzzing all around my card, LOL. 

I'll see you on Wednesday with a project for Graphic 45 that I can't wait to share....see you then.
