Hello and welcome to another New At SU! Blog Hop! The theme this month is Techniques with Retiring Stamps! I decided to use the Rooted in Nature stamp set along with the clear block stamping technique. Enjoy!
I had so much fun creating this project! My inspiration came from Claire Daly. I used Bermuda Bay for my card base and a Soft Suede layer.
I colored on a clear block using Coastal cabana, Bermuda Bay and Soft Suede Stampin’ Write Markers. Then I spritzed the whole block with a little water and put the wet block on my Basic White layer.
Lastly, I stamped a tree and my greeting in Soft Suede Ink. To continue hopping through, please click on the next button or scroll through the roll call last below!
