Please visit each of the designers listed below, to see some gorgeous samples of the new sets. Once you have visited them all, please head over to the NCC Blog and let us know that you have finished. You have until June 17 at 9 pm EDT to complete the hop. There will be two winners of a $10 gift certificate to the NCC store towards stamps; winners will be announced on the NCC Blog on June 18th.
My first sample features the "Find Beauty" set, which includes a beautiful silhouette, three sentiments and one quote. I used various dies from the Spellbinders Labels One and Grand Labels One sets to cut out the card and layers. The top panel was colored with sponge daubers with green, coral, and pink ink pads. The designer paper in the background is Bo Bunny "Little Miss". The butterfly "trails" were paper pierced with an ornare piercer and the outside of the panel was pierced by hand with my standard sized piercer.
My second sample today features "Heaven's Masterpiece", another gorgeous silhouette set; this one includes one image, four sentiments, and two lovely quotes! The espresso brown shaped card was cut out with the Spellbinders Fleur De Lis Squares die set and the matting and image panel were cut out with Square Nestabilities. The image was stamped in dark brown ink and the background was sponged in pink.

ReplyDeleteAngie~ Your cards are beautiful! I love the added butterfly trails. The dauber technique is one I forgot all about and accents the silhouette perfectly. The pink and brown colors work perfecly in your 2nd card. I love the paper piercing with heart corners. TFS.
