Block holidays

Sorry about the lack of post yesterday -- I was just so tired after a long week and took a night of from stamping altogether. But now I'm back with another Christmas in July card. This one uses the block party and snow flurries sets, both of which are retiring next month. I also used my husband's favorite color combination -- soft sky and blue bayou, both of which are retiring next month as well. In fact, the soft sky ribbon I used on this card is already sold out.

I think the way I stamped the card is fairly obvious. I only used blue bayou ink and what may not be visible in the picture is that I used shimmery white to stamp the block party image so that there is a soft shimmer to this card in real life.

Hopefully I'll have more tomorrow! The good news is that I have all of my posts for Convention lined up and ready -- I will be posting all of my swaps! And next Wednesday you'll get a nifty faux layer with masking tutorial, so be sure to tune in for that!
