Guest Designer Samantha

Hello – Samantha here, guest designing for Jaded Blossom. I’ve had such a wonderful month creating cards and party favours using the new June release! What a GREAT release too – I thought it only fitting for my last appearance to use the Birthday Bandit stamp (since it was the last of the release stamps I hadn't used yet!) along with some of my favourite Jaded Blossom dies to create this fun card.

Here it is!

This card took a little planning – but I wanted to create a fun background using the Alphabet dies. It’s probably difficult to see – but after ink blending the letters and adhering them to my card base, I machine stitched lines in the shape of clouds. I wanted to keep the background light because I knew I wanted to add the balloons and the coloured image…I also knew there would be a LOT of pink…

I used Copic Markers to colour both the bin and racoon. I’ve listed the Copic colours below in the supplies list.
