Sunrise Sailing Bundle - Stampin' Dreams Blog Hop - Fun In The Sun

I'm happy to be part of today's Crafty Collaborations Stampin' Dreams Blog Hop with the theme, "Fun in the Sun." I'm sure you it will be so much fun to see the many projects shown in this blog hop! So be sure to "hop" all the way around to see every demonstrator's blog post. 

Fun, Sun, and Sailing 

I have always wanted to ride on a sailboat, how about you? 

Do you also like making cards that have all of the basic elements: background, focal point and sentiment? Do you like it when some of that work is done for you and you just add a few die cuts and minimal stamping? 

The FULL OF LIFE Designer Series Paper had a perfect watercolor piece that worked great as a background. And another watercolor piece that was a great color for my round sun cut from the STYLISH SHAPES dies. I added the sailboat and cloud dies from the SUNRISE SAILING Bundle as well as stamping the waves in the water with White Craft ink. Then I added the "hello" sentiment and shape from the WONDERFUL THOUGHTS stamps & dies. Lastly I added one of the large IRIDESCENT FACETED GEMS as an embellishment. 

Does my project make you think of having some fun in the sun?

Sunrise Sailing Bundle - Floating Strips Background Technique - Crafty Collaborations - Technique Tuesday Blog Hop

 

I'm happy to be part of today's Crafty Collaborations Technique Tuesday Blog Hop showcasing background techniques. I'm sure you are just as excited as I am to see the many background techniques shown in this blog hop. So be sure to "hop" all the way around to see every demonstrator's blog post!  

Is that background floating? 

I love optical illusions and this background is so fun and easy to create! If I show you a close up, can you see how it is done? (Scroll down a little to see the how-to video) 

I used 2 of the colors in the BEAUTIFUL BOKEH Designer Series Paper pack to make my 3/8" (1 cm) strips. And the sailboat, clouds and "ahoy!" sentiment are from the SUNRISE SAILING Bundle. Then I embellished with the HOLOGRAPHIC RESIN DOTS for a final touch. 

Watch my how-to video on my Stamp With Joy YouTube channel and then start making some of your own easy floating strips background projects!
