STAMPlorations April/May Stamps Spotlight Hop

Hey everyone!  Today is the day we spotlight some new stamp sets over at STAMPlorations!  The designers came up with some really lovely sets for us.

Aren't they wonderful?!  I had a lot of fun creating with them.  This is what I came up with....

First, I stamped one of the perfume bottles (Parfumerie set) in black and coloured it in with my Spectrum Noir markers.  You have to be careful what colours you choose when colouring on coloured cardstock.  Then I stamped the other perfume bottles around it using the silver Delicata ink.

I stamped the flowers and leaves (Sweet and Sassy Mom set) in black and then coloured them in with my Prismacolour pencil crayons.  Then I stamped the sentiments.  I added the brackets with a black pen.

I stamped the floral bouquet (Best Mom Ever set) in black on the corners of my card base.  Then I coloured them in with my Spectrum Noir markers.  I stamped the sentiment in black.

I stamped the girl (One Cool Chick set) in black and then created a mask and covered her up.  I sponged white ink first over top and then sponge Seedless Preserves Distress ink over top of the white.  By doing the white first, the purple showed up better on the kraft cardstock.  Then I stamped the sentiment in black.

Well, I hope you enjoyed your visit today and will take a look at what the other STAMP girls have created too.  Don't forget to comment along the way for a chance to win some prizes!  Have a fantastic day and thanks for stopping by!

Commenting closes on Monday, May 8, with the winners announced on May 10.
