We are thankful you stopped by to take a look at our May 2016 Blog Hop. This month we are featuring projects that are stepped up using technique or texture. We hope to provide you with lots of ideas and that you enjoy our creations.
You may just be starting the Blog Hop or may have come from the previous link from the line-up on the Pals Blog Hop listing shown below. The full lineup will help you move along from blog to blog so you may see all the projects.
Products designated as “new” will be available June 1 when the Stampin’ Up! 2016-2017 Annual Catalog begins.
STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:
- My “quilting” technique for today’s blog hop is quite simple in concept but packs a big punch with the new Pop of Pink Specialty Designer Series Paper.
- I layered 1″ x 1 1/2″ pieces of the Pop of Pink patterns over Whisper White card stock. I then cropped it to size (3 3/4″ x 5″). This allows for a clean edge.
- It’s takes a sentiment with a lot of personality to counter all those darling patterned rectangles. The message from the new Layering Love stamp set is perfect!
- If you are a fan of layering dies like me, you’re going to put the new Sweet & Sassy Framelits Dies (15 of them) on your wish list.

Love this stamp set Mary, Fun card.
Very, very pretty, Mary! Great use of showcasing new card stock and using scraps from the old. Love it!
Wow Mary you have done it again. Your new creation is very attractive and just pops with the hearts and sentiment. Thanks for sharing your talent with all of us.
Love the quilting effect! And I love the Popping Heart!
Adorable card, and it’s a great teaser for the new products. Must add these to my list. I really liked that you used rectangles instead of squares for your quilt.
I love the way you offset the heart layers! The card shows me why to order the new items from the catalog I wasn’t really excited about! Thanks
Love your quilted card, Mary! Such a fresh take on a classic technique!
I love everything about this!
Love your sweet comments. Thanks for stopping by!
