Summer Mini Sneak Peek!

Hi there! I have been busy this week making samples for my June Stamp-A-Stack class. I wanted to use my new favorite stamp set, On the Grow, because the images just beg to be colored and I love to color. I can't remember a time that I didn't love coloring. When I was a kid I always looked forward to shopping for summertime art supplies. My mom would take my sisters and I to buy us new color books and crayons. Isn't there something magical about a brand spankin' new box of crayons? I think so! In this class we will get to play with a variety of coloring tools and media such as blender pens, aqua painters, watercolor crayons, and ink pads (to do this with Stampin' Up! ink pads you press on the stamp pad before opening it which creates a small pool of ink in the lid which you can then pick up with a blender pen or aqua painter.) 





For this next card I used the new stamp set Strength & Hope, another new one from the Summer Mini catalog available May 1st. For each Strength & Hope stamp set sold, Stampin' Up! will donate $2 to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation! Way to go SU!



I am nearly finished with my scrapbook pages class samples, I'll be back to share those with you tomorrow. Thanks for stopping by today!
