The Cat’s Pajamas Spring Release Blog Hop and TCP Tuesday

April2016BlogHop400

Hi everyone! It’s release day with The Cat’s Pajamas and to celebrate, the Cat Pack and Guests have put together a fun hop using the new release stamps and dies.  If you just came from Julie Elak, then you’re in the right place. (She’s the first stop so it’s a short hop back!)

Today is also the first day of the Spring Customer Blog Hop as well as TCP Tuesday. You can find all details on the TCP blog.

I’ve used my favorite set from the release, Sketchy Flowers, along with “sunshine” from new Sending You stamp set. The Sending die is also new and available for FREE with any $65 purchase. (Also available to purchase individually.)

I stamped the flowers and leaves onto translucent vellum using white ink then white embossed. The coloring, done with Copic markers, was applied to the back of the vellum. I love the soft color beneath the white texture of the embossing.

Copic markers – R20, R83, YG11

To adhere the floral vellum to the card base, I “hid” small glue dots beneath the flower petals.  To adhere the sentiment panel (also vellum), I tucked the left and right edges beneath the floral vellum panel and secured with 1/8″ double-sided sticky tape.

Your next stop on today’s hop is with Nancy Thomas. Enjoy!  🙂

Thanks so much for visiting!
