This is turning into a nice tradition – a blog hop to celebrate the release of new images at The Character Cafe! This is our second blog hop and it starts HERE at The Character Cafe Design Team page, and if you didn’t start there, and if you didn’t come from Elaine’s blog, you might want to start from the beginning. You’ll end up here in a little while!
If you follow this blog hop through, leave a little comment on our blogs and collect the 8 character code (my part of the code will be found at the end of this post!) you can:
1. win a PRIZE (actually there will be TWO!),
2. be eligible to a 30% DISCOUNT,
3. find a FREEBIE!
The hop will continue until Friday 24th, and the discount code will be good until Sunday 26th. There is plenty of time!
I have the most beautiful Sunflower image to showcase today. It has such details and the possibilities with this one is endless. At once I saw it I knew I wanted to use it doing a birthday box, a box containing cards with the birthdays of all my family friends and their addresses to keep in my scrap room. (Click the images to get bigger photos!)
I printed three Sunflower images and layered it to get some dimension. The sunflower is colored with copics (except the leaves, they are distress ink – still only have one green copic marker and you need at least two shades!).
I made my own cards (two sets - on with each month, one for addresses) printing the sunflower in the lower left corner in a smaller size. Love the resizing possibilities with digi stamps!
Project recipe: Box template: PTI, Papers: Bazzill, Basic Grey, Stamp: The Character Cafe, Prima, Misc: lace, glass stones, nestabilities, copics, distress ink.
I know I will use this one over and over again! Like on Wednesday when it’s my turn to host Work it Wednesday. Be sure to check in!
Time to continue the hop and give you the essentials:
My part of the code is: 1
