Girls/Boys for the Stamp ‘N Hop Blog Hop

Welcome to this months Stamp ‘N Hop Blog Hop where our theme is Girls/Boys. If you have hopped over from Libby Dyson’s blog welcome and I hope you will hop on to see what the other talented demos have to share with us this month.

Like many I find children’s card a bit of a challenge and after a lot of messing about I have decided to go simple and slightly left field.

To recreate the Girls/Boys card you will need:

Bermuda Bay card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Terracotta Tile – 5½” by 3¾”
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” x 2
Scrap Whisper White

I took one of the panels of Whisper White and masked off a strip from top to bottom using Post It notes. I used a Sponge to apply Pool Party ink to the exposed strip of card stock.

I removed the Post It Notes and stamped the sweet little balloon in Terracotta Tile, Pacific Point and Bermuda Bay inks onto the inked strip. I love these colours together don’t you.

I added the Terracotta Tile layer to the Bermuda Bay card base using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive – I decided it looked better offset. The stamped layer was added to the card front, again offset using Dimensionals.

On a scrap of Whisper White card stock I stamped the sentiment banner using Terracotta Tile ink and cut it out using sharp scissors. It was added to the card base with the liquid adhesive.

To complete the card I added a trio of In-Color faceted dots.

I really really like the card, it would make a great card for a young boy.
