Hostess Exclusive Blog Hop

 If you're coming from Tonya's blog you're on the right track.

Welcome to the Heartfelt Sentiments Team Hostess Exclusive Blog Hop. We're featuring stamps sets that only our hostesses can receive for a great discount. I'm using Well Wishes. It's available as a Hostess Reward for only $4.00!

I used Ruby and Olive ink to stamp the main image several times and cut it out in different areas to layer and make it dimensional.

The olive card front was stamped in Olive 2nd generation randomly all over to create texture and interest.

I think it would be a very versatile stamp set to add to your collection.

Thanks for stopping by! Now, continue on with the hop and check out what Sheila has to show you!

CTMH Paper Focus Blog Hop - Chalk It Up

Welcome to the Heartfelt Sentiments Team's Close To My Heart Paper Focus Blog Hop. Each month, we use a different paper packet from the Annual Inspirations Idea Book. And, this month, in honor of the start of school we're using Chalk It Up.

If you're coming from Melissa Robinson's blog, you're on the right track!

For my project, I chose to do a card. I was working on the Chalk It Up Workshop on the Go and these are leftovers from that project. I also chose to use the stamp set that comes with it to show how versatile these sets are.

Lagoon cardstock was edge distressed and layered over a white card base. The banners were cut from one of the B&T papers and I used two cute embellishments from the Chalk It Up Assortment that came in the workshop kit. To finish it off, I wrote a sentiment with LePen journaling pen.

I hope you've enjoyed stopping by my blog today. Leave a comment and let me know what you think. I look forward to your next visit! Now, hop on over to Melissa David's blog to continue the hop.
