Hello and welcome back to my blog! Today's card is for the 'Use Your Stash" Instagram Hop April 2026. I am joined by an amazing lineup of crafters so make sure you go to my Instagram page HERE to see the rest of the team's creations.
The aim of the hop is to use up some of the huge stash that we all accumulate. Hopefully it will also inspire both ourselves and others to combine some of our old and new products to reduce that stash.
This month's theme is "Pretty Pastels". One of my all time favourite Pastel colours is So Saffron which retired a few years back. I decided to use it as my primary Pastel and add some other retired Pastel colours and neutrals to create my card. I used the You Are Remarkable (images) and Thoughtful Wishes (sentiment) stamp sets, combining them with the Happy Forest Friends DSP and Stampin' Blends in retired colours.
Instructions:
- Use Sahara Sand card for the base and layer with Basic White card. Stamp a pattern on a smaller piece of Sahara Sand card using the You Are Remarkable stamp set, Sahara Sand ink and a second generation stamping technique. Layer with two different pieces of the Happy Forest Friends DSP (edges distressed) and a piece of So Saffron card.
- Stamp the image from the You Are Remarkable set and the sentiment from the Thoughtful Wishes stamp sets using Tuxedo Black onto Basic White card. Fussy cut the image and sentiment. Use retired Pastel Stampin' Blends to colour the floral image (So Saffron, Seaside Spray, Purple Posy, Rococo Rose, Mint Macaron and Mango Melody).
- Adhere the image and sentiment onto the card. Finally add some Rhinestone Basic Jewels coloured with So Saffron Stampin' Blends to complete.
