Hey there, 'Fetti Fans!
Welcome to the Reverse Confetti May New Release Blog Hop!
It would be worth your while to start at the beginning of the hop, so you don’t miss a thing.
For my blog hop project, I decided to pair two of the new stamp sets:
Now, I think I've mentioned how much I love this sweet little monkey!
And I thought that he would make the cutest baby cards.
Here's my card:
I used some Carta Bella patterned paper as my background and I framed
my sweet monkey with a Crate Paper chipboard frame.
I stamped the sentiment onto my patterned paper using versafine onyx black ink.
I stamped my monkey onto a piece of vellum in the same ink
and heat embossed it in clear.
Then, I coloured my mango gelato onto my acrylic block, spritzed it with water and used
that to paint my monkey, adding more water for the lighter areas.
I used my heat tool to dry it.
I love how the vellum softens the gingham pattern!
I hope you’ve enjoyed hopping with us today!

ReplyDeleteI haven't played with gelatos yet but this makes me want to!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute little monkey, and so clever of you to stamp him on vellum! (Why do I always assume that monkeys are male? Could it be because I have 4 grandsons?!)

ReplyDelete*Oh, baby* is right, Leigh...your little monkey baby card is ultra-delightful! I can just imagine the bright smiles that would appear on new parents' faces in receiving this.

ReplyDeleteAwwwww! Cute doesn't begin to describe this card. When I look at the picture it looks embossed in black. Is this the reflection from the stamp underneath the clear embossing?
