OSAT Blog Hop Down on the Farm



Hello and Welcome to the One Stamp At  A Time Down on the Farm Blog Hop!  If you've already been hopping, thanks so much for continuing on!  If you are starting with me, please make sure that you use the blog roll at the end of the post to continue on for tons of  Stampin' Up! Inspiration!



I used a combination of the Country Home Stamp Set and the Birch Background Stamp.  I've seen the Birch stamp used with many different ink colors but I decided to use it in Early Espresso on Whisper White and I LOVED the look of it.  


I stamped the cotton floral spray onto Whisper White Cardstock and used my Stampin' Blends to color it in.  The Milk Can was stamped on a scrap of Smoky Slate and then highlighted with a Smoky Slate Stampin' Blend to add a little depth on the sides.  I fussy cut it out and attached it with multipurpose adhesive directly under the cotton arrangement. I stamped the label with Hello on a scrap of Whisper White and fussy cut it and attached to the front of the Milk Can.   I added a little Smoky Slate to each side of the ground next to the Milk Can to ground it.  The Stitched Rectangles were used to cut out the panel and it was matted it in Early Espresso.  The front panel of Birch was attached to a top folding Early Espresso Card Base.  I love the stark contrast of the White and Early Espresso.... soooooo pretty!





For my coordinating item, I decided to go with a super simple post-it note holder.  I actually prefer to use mini magnet snaps but I was currently out of them so I went with velco dots.  I added a little Early Espresso on the back of the whisper white to add a little more strength to the top flap.  


Thanks so much for stopping by!  Blessings, Tina

SIP #171 Fall Florals Challenge with Stampin' Up! Country Home

Hello and Happy Tuesday!  Stamp, Ink, Paper has a fun fall florals challenge for you this week.  

I'll be honest I had a lot of great ideas for my card but in the end my allergies got the best of me so I went fairly simple with the new Stampin' Up! Country Home stamp set.


I used my Stampin' Blends for my coloring on the image.  I love the cotton.  One of my first jobs years and years.... and years ago was for a cotton company in Memphis, so I am very partial to all things cotton!  I used Basic Gray for my Card Base and layered on a 3 1/2" x 5 1/2" piece of Crumb Cake Cardstock that was embossed with the new Dynamic Corrugated Textured Embossing Folder. I ran some linen thread around the Corrugated layer a few times prior to adhering it to the Gray cardbase, and tied it on the left hand side.  Do you normally have a particular side that you tie a bow or knot on?  For some reason, 99.9% of the time, my bows or knots are on the left hand side.  lol
I cut out my fall floral image with a Stitched Shapes Oval Framelit.  Then I literally could NOT find my layering oval framelits so I layered the stitched oval onto a tag cut out with an old MFT stitched tag die set.  I added a button with more of the linen thread tied into it to finish it off.

Thnaks so much for stopping by!  Blessings, Tina
