Welcome to the Monday Montage blog hop! Every other Monday, my friends and I share inspiring projects. Be sure to visit all 10 stops…..you don't want to miss anything!
Today I held a class using the Simply Created Hooray It's Your Day Project kit. This kit has (almost) everything you need to create 20 adorable birthday cards. You will need the stamp set, some ink and adhesive to complete the cards as shown below.
Most of the cards use spritzers filled with re-inkers and alcohol to create unique backgrounds. While spritzing creates a softer background, I decided to try some sponging to create a deeper color. For this card, I used sponge daubers and ink pads to add color to the lines. The paper is already pre-printed with white glossy areas, so the resist effect is effortless. And don't you just love the wooden "hello"? I need about a dozen more of those.
On this card, I simply used the mask over my card stock before I sponged on the colors. I love how bright and cheerful it is!
And in case you are wondering, I used the suggested colors from the kit…….Daffodil Delight, Strawberry Slush, Wild Wasabi, and Bermuda Bay. You'll find a complete supply list at the end of this post.
