Dreamweaver and Stampendous: Summertime Fun Day One


It's fun in the sun time again with another collaboration between Stampendous and Dreamweaver Stencils! We'll be playing together all of this week, with a fabulous hop on Friday, August 2nd, featuring a slew of amazing talent from both teams, and of course...prizes!!!

Two prize packages will be given away for the comments left on posts Monday-Thursday, July 29th - August 1st, and one prize will be given away for comments left on the hop day, Friday, August 2nd. Winners will be selected randomly and announced Thursday, August 8th. (Note: USA addresses only, please, due to shipping costs.) Here's what you could win:

Stampendous Surfer and Sandcastle Kiddos • Dreamweaver Hot Air Balloon, Ice Cream Cones, Summer, Mosaic Swirls, Bird Words, and Sandcastle stencils




 Here's what I created:


Featuring the re-release of the Oi Oi Fish stencil, I sprayed a resist medium over my stencil, and transferred it to my glossy cardstock. When dry, I rubbed Memento Dewdrop inks over the surface. I used the new Dreamweaver Leafless Tree DIE to create the coral branches in the front, and it's counterpart in stencils to emboss the background on Core'dinations cardstock. The card base was machine embossed using various Dreamweaver shell designs, and brushed with ink, before stamping the Stampendous Breathe sentiment.

I added a swathe of May Arts Loose Braid trim as leafy seaweed across the card, and adhered a sprinkling of Stampendous Color Fragments in Fluorescent Orange and Teal for added color and texture.

 Now, hop on over to the next in line. Don't forget to leave some love for a chance to win, and just 'cuz it's nice!
