Hi everyone and welcome to another great blog hop from the Control Freak Stampers! You may have arrived here from Connie Babbert’s blog. She is so unbelievably talented and her projects are always incredible! I’ll have your next link at the bottom of this post. Our theme this month is the 2021 January–June Mini Catalog. I’m sharing a trio of cards created with the Hey Girlfriend stamp set.

Hey Girlfriend Stamp Set

The Hey Girlfriend Stamp Set includes fun sentiments and imagery to let someone know you’re thinking of them. I loved coloring these images with our Stampin’ Blends and I played around a lot with skin tones and hair texture. I’ve been taking some coloring classes over the last year, so I was glad to put some of the lessons to use. Here is an easy technique to try: after coloring the red skirt in the image below, hold the Color Lifter in one spot for a few seconds. This will create a polka-dot effect. Fun, right?

The pattern paper used on these cards is from the Snail Mail suite. It pairs very nicely with other stamps in the 2021 January-June Mini catalog, so don’t be afraid to mix and match. You can check out this card made with other products from the SNAIL MAIL Suite.

You’re next stop on the tour is my good friend Wendy Weixler. I’m sure she’ll wow you with her amazing work!
