Welcome to the July Stampers with an Attitude Bling it Up Blog Hop. This month I am following {Melissa Robinson.} Our blog hop is a circular hop. You just click on the link to the next blog on the bottom of this post and go visit the next blog. If you get lost, I have listed all of the participating blogs at the bottom of my post. Hope you enjoy seeing what our team has made for you.
I just got back from the Close to My Heart Convention and I saw so much truly amazing artwork. I have had a few Picture My Life kits sitting around and after seeing what other CTMH Consultants have done with these kits, I picked out a card whose sentiment I loved and set out to make an inspirational piece of art for my wall.
I really needed to spend the time creating and playing with the Skylark paper pack. The base of my artwork is two pieces of chipboard adhered together. Then I started ripping pieces of my patterned paper, inking the edges with chocolate ink, and adhering it to the chipboard with my Bonding Memories glue.
I used my favorite Dreamer (B1439) Stamp Set and then added the Picture My Life Skylark card matted with Chocolate cardstock and then with our new Teal Glitter Paper (orderable 8/1).
I added lots of flourishes, clear bling, a charm from our Base and Bling collection, and some flowers from the Skylark assortment. And then I covered the entire piece of artwork with Glossy Mod Podge.
Thank you for visiting my blog. The next very talented artist for you to visit on our blog hop is {Jen Patrick}.
