Monday Montage 137

Hello and welcome to another Monday Montage Blog Hop! My friends and I have some great projects to share with you today. Be sure to read through to the end to find your next stop.

Stampin’ Up! released the list of retiring stamp sets and accessories last week. WOW! It was an extensive list! You can view all of the retiring products HERE. I’ll be sharing some old retiring favorites and some never before seen cards over the next few weeks on my blog and social media.

Today’s card was featured on my display board at OnStage in April 2018 and I never featured it on my blog. The Chase Your Dreams dies are retiring, but I’m most distraught over the loss of Glossy White card stock. There are so many neat techniques that you can do with glossy paper and this watercolor background is one of my favorites. Simply use an aquapainter and several reinkers to create a soft, muted background.
