April Release- blog hop

Welcome to our April Release Blog Hop!  We are so excited about the new stamps coming out this month and can't wait to share some of our projects with you.  Hop along with us for some inspiration and make sure to comment along the way for your chance at a $10 gift certificate to Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps. Winner will be announced on the SNSS blog on April 23rd.  

For my first card I am using Delightful Daisies, I can not even tell you how much I love this set!  This set comes with both the solid and outline images and is just so FUN to play with.  I stamped the largest image and colored with Copic markers for a quick and simple card.  The sentiment comes from another great flower set Peaceful Peonies

My next card is using Happy Day, which is the stamp set of the month.  I colored with Copic markers and the striped paper was from my scrap bin.  You can get this stamp set for FREE with a $75 purchase.  Happy Day is another wonderful flower stamp set which is very versatile and will make for some quick and easy cards or you can also do some masking and make something a little more difficult which you can see HERE in a card I posted yesterday. Thanks so much for hopping with us, I am the last stop on the blog but in case you started here the list of blogs is below so make sure you go back to the beginning and comment along the way!

Enjoy them both but the color of the flower with the black and white strips just pops for me. Thanks for the inspiration

I love the red/black/white together on the first card and the small doodle-like flowers on the second card - both are lovely! Thank you so much for playing along with the penny black and more challenge.

I can't wait to play with the Delightful Daisies set, it looks like it is so fun and versatile. Your cards are beautiful and I really love the black and white contrast

Beautiful cards! Love the way you used the black accents on them

I love the B&W stripes on each card. I think the black makes whatever color you use really pop. These are both beautiful!

Karen Decknick said...

So pretty! Love the combo on the first card, the pattern paper works so well with the image and makes it pop!

Lovely cards Stephanie. Love the pretty daisy on the first one and the striped paper... great coloring. The sweet little blooms look darling on the second! Fantastic designs.

2 beautiful cards!

Kentucky Daisy said...

I totally agree with you about the daisy stamps! Those are my favorite flowers, so I'm loving the opportunity to see great designs like yours. I can't tell for sure if the daisy is red or a form of pink, but it looks great with the black 7 white diagonal stripes you chose for the background. :)
I also like the other card, too, and appreciate your sharing them on the hop!
