DeNami Design Bright Blossoms blog hop

Welcome to the DeNami Design Bright Blossoms blog hop. This is the last blog hop until the fall, so I hope you have a chance to visit all of those that are participating. You should've arrived from Wendy's blog. If you get lost, you can head back to the DeNami Design blog for a full list of participants. The next stop along the hop is my daughter Leah. She was so excited to be able to participate in the hop.
 
 
 
When I started to create for this hop, I had been playing around with my watercolors and embossing powder using Small Bold Hibiscus. She loved what I was doing, so I showed her how to use versamark and embossing powder. Of course, I used my heat tool since she it too little, but she did all the rest with the stamping, powder, watercolors and trimming out her flowers. She used Medium Bold Hibiscus and Small Bold Hibiscus for her card. She opted not to use a sentiment.


 
The next stop along the hop is me. I chose to use Medium Bold Hibiscus for my card. I stamped it several times and colored them in with my copics. I opted to only shade in a few of them.  Then I inked up Hope Blooms and used my circle nestability to trim it out. I attached it to the cardfront using foam adhesive.
 


Your next stop along the hop is Pattie. I love her style and I can't wait to see what she has created.
 
Don't forget about the THREE gift certificates that will be given away! One gift certificate will go to a random participant and TWO gift certificates to TWO people who comment along the hop! You have until June 9, 2014 11:59pm PST to comment and be eligible.
 
Thanks for stopping by!
