All That You Do

Ready for a new peek?

With school just around the corner, it’s been on my mind. Back to school shopping has inspired some school themed crafting and I was excited to come up with this fun card using three stamp sets that aren’t school-themed at all! Don’t you love it when you can mix and match?

First of all the little apple and sentiment is a sneak peek at the upcoming September stamp set called Thankful for You by Avocado Arts. I can’t wait to show you more of this set as I know you’re going to love it!

Most of the time when I stamp, I love keeping the main focus on the stamped images themselves. That’s why you’ll find most of my stamped cards in a clean and simple style.

This card is easy to recreate. I’ve used the lines from the ZipnBy stamp set to arrange the school elements and the sentiment around. Make sure you stamp and mask the globe first so that they don’t overlap. Another quick little detail about the globe…it looks much more like a school globe if you just use a ruler and a fine permanent marker to add in the axis. Can you tell I adore this little sphere stamp? It’s the same one that makes the hot air balloon you see here.

 

Lastly the abc’s came from the AvocadoType stamp set that is perfect for scrapbooking and creating your own sentiments for cards. Love it!

Today the rest of the Avocado Arts Design Team is sharing sneak peeks as well. Check it out…

FYI…Did you know that Jenni Bowlin Inks are made by Ranger? That means they have Ranger’s fabulous quality of ink and also work well with all Ranger Inks.
