TSG Blog Hop Challenge : Poppy / Amalia Ballerina

Welcome to day 2 of this month's TSG Blog Hop Challenges! Today we are showing you two stamp sets designed by Megan Suarez, Amalia Ballerina and Poppy.




Poppy is a 3x4 set that includes a total of 5 stamps and will sell for $9.00.



Amalia Ballerina is a 3x4 set that includes a total of 3 stamps and will sell for $9.00.

Both sets will be available for purchase at 11:00 pm EST on Saturday, may 25th.




I used Amalia Ballerina set for today. Isn't she the cutest?? I LOVED her tutu so much that I couldn't help adding some sparkle with diamond stickles!


To make a flower, I die cut two kind of scalloped circles, crumpled them and sponged some Antique linen ink. A wood button (Prima) was put onto the center of the flower.

TSG Blog Ho Challenge : Aquaholic

Hello everyone!! This month's TSG Blog Hop Challenges start today! :D




Melyssa is back from a short break with a new set for us, and we are so excited about it, we had to show it off day one of our peeks!! She is getting us ready for summer with her signature style, and I'm just not sure if it can get ANY cuter than this!! With three adorable character images, and lots of accessories and sentiments, she will have you using this set for everything from party decorations to greeting cards!

Aquaholic is a 6x8 set that includes a total of 26 stamps and will sell for $24.00. This set will be available for purchase at 11:00 pm EST on Saturday, May 25th.


It was really hard to choose what image I'd use for today. I finally decided to use these two fish images, but I'm pretty sure that I'll use this set again and again this summer!
To make a wavy pattern for the background, I cut out a scalloped border from a scrap of paper and used it as a template. I added some bubbles with a white gel pen. Though it's hard to see in the photo, I added two stitching lines onto the sentiment panel using In Stitches set and Soft Pool Ink.

Nautical Tags

Happy Saturday everyone! Today I'd like to share some nautical themed tags I made using a newly released digital stamp set, Nautical Icons.




This digital stamp set includes 6 nautical icons and 1 sailorman image, and I used 5 of them. I used Just For You Dies (TSG) to cut out these tags and sentiment banners. The striped pattern is from Just For You - Halloween Additions set (TSG).  Isn't it perfect for the nautical theme?;) Each image was cut out with a 1-3/8" circle punch, then matted with a scalloped circle. The sentiments are from PTI.

Thank you for stopping by. Have a great weekend!
