Stamp of Approval Naturally Inspired Blog Hop Day 1

Welcome to Day 1 of the Naturally Inspired Stamp of Approval Blog Hop! I'm the final stop on today's hop - you should have come from Jen's blog (full list of blogs at the bottom of the post)





If you’re new to Stamp of Approval – click here to check out everything you need to know about this amazing collection of Stamps, Dies and other goodies.
The theme of this collection is Naturally Inspired. That got us thinking about what inspires us. Rainbows of bold bright colour (HELLO, Catherine Pooler inks!) are my favourite thing to use in my crafting.

This collection full of products that you will love! Here are three of the cards I've made: 
You're the Best



This fun rainbow card is sure to make someone feel appreciated. I made a quick video for this one. Be sure to check out The Naturally Inspired collection for full instructions. I used the Simply the Best set and matching die as well as Wild Garden Stamp set and the new Wanderlust super-sparkly embossing powder!

Inks: Tiara, Tiki Torch, Party Dress, Flirty Fuschia, Fiesta Blue, Lime Ricky, Midnight





Birthday Wishes



This card uses the Simply the Best stamp set and the Wild Garden stamp set. Look at how smoothly the Catherine Pooler inks blend - and they react with water too! So yummy!

Inks: Tiara, Tiki Torch, Party Dress, Midnight


Best Wishes


This card uses the Best die, Simply the Best stamp set and Lattice Frame die, as well as the new Wanderlust embossing powder. After I cut the lattice in white, I put Versamark all over it and embossed it for a sparkly effect. Don't you love how the heart fits into the curve of the 't'?

Inks: Rockin' Red, Midnight

Be sure to visit Catherine's blog to see all the products in details.

There are two more days of blog hops before the collection will be released on Wednesday, June 7. 

And there's a prize!


One winner will be chosen at random from each day's comments and announced on June 9 on Catherine's blog. The winners will win their box and if they already bought it, they will be issued a Gift Certificate worth $100 towards a future purchase.

  17. GREAT cards. I loved the background you created on the 1st card, the striking contrast of the black images on the colorful background on the 2nd. The last one was so elegant with the black on the mostly white background. Outstanding job.
