Paperbabe Stamps is 3!

Hi ! How are you?

It’s Paperbabe Stamps third Anniversary month and I’m here today along with some other talented girls to share a sampling of the NEW Paperbabe Stamps JULY 2016 release with you! If you’ve joined from the beginning you have probably come from Kerrie’s blog.

 

So there are FOUR new mini stamp sets and Three new substrate kits will be available to purchase on July 30th. You will find the new products HERE once they go live. 

 

To add extra fun to our blog hop…Paperbabe Stamps are offering up a prize! 

Two prizes – 

The Paperbabe Stamps entire July’s release and

a £25. gift to choose what you like in the Paperbabe Stamps online store.

So- first up; the projects…

The four mini sets are all designed to work perfectly with each other and I’ve mixed them together a little. All the critters are solid stamps with an extra matching detailed image, so you can have a least two colours per animal really easily.

Because they’re solid images, they lend themselves beautifully to no-line colouring. I’ve done a simple no-line effect with Copics onto the rabbit and then plonked him onto a distress inked sky. He looked a little forlorn so I added a matching sentiment!

This second CAS card is using the rabbit and fox who just sit so well together (obviously in real life, the rabbit would have been supper a long time ago!) but I’ve just stamped in one colour with no shading and added the details with a darker ink; so simple!

I love adding a bit of humour to projects and when I saw the little hedgehogs, they looked like they’d be up for some mischief. One of the new substrate sets is a dimensional plaque. I’ve used both parts separately and the inner part for this mini project.

Obviously this is a hedgehog playground with tug of war and berry fights. You can angle the faces slightly to give more expression and done in different colours they have their own personality too!

For this last project, I’ve used one of the sentiments from the substrate word set plus the back layer of the plaque and one of the animals from the final set. They’re solid MDF and you could just paint them straight off with a decent quality paint, but I added a Gesso layer first. The rabbit had a layer of Gesso, some paint and then I just stamped over the top. This would make a sweet room sign for a new arrival!

Well those are my projects- now for a barrel load of inspiration and the fine print of the blog hop and draw.

Here are the details:

• Two winners will be chosen at RANDOM from any of the designer’s blogs and the PaperbabeStamps Blog to win.
• Just leave a comment on any of the designer’s blogs listed below or the Paperbabe stamps blog for your chance to win! (you do not need to comment on all blogs to qualify but it increases your chances)
