Hello and welcome to the second Social Stamping Blog Hop with so many talented crafters around the world joining in.
My friend Kelly Kent is the mastermind behind this and she put the group together to share our creations in a time where we are all social distancing and many are in isolation. It is a very unnerving time for a lot of people as some have medical issues and loved ones who are compromised and can not afford to get ill. Creating is my sanity at the moment as I am a pretty social person and not being able to meet friends just at the coffee shop or have a card class is really hard.
So here is the next theme that Kelly has set for us and it is "Rainbow"
You have come from the gorgeous Mandy's page
Rainbow to me screams Pigment Inks!!
I love these as messy as they are they are so bright and colourful.
I am trying to make and get out as many cards as I can while home.
Tip - the sentiment was punched with the Label me Fancy punch which I slid it so it punched a bit smaller than the original punch size, I think it worked well and looks totally different to the original shape.
- Stamps: Ornate Style & Heres a Card
- Ink: Versamark
- Card: Watercolour & Basic Black
- Tools: Clear and White Embossing Powder & Heat Tool, Pigment Sprinkles, Label me Fancy Punch, Butterfly Beauty Thinlets Dies & Ornate Borders Dies with a Die cutting/Embossing Machine

ReplyDeleteGorgeous card Nicole, so bright and cheerful x
ReplyDeleteOh same, I'm trying to make and get out as many cards as I can at the moment too.....such a great way for us to connect. Your rainbow card will definitely brighten a friends day with the beautiful, bold rainbow background. Chantell
ReplyDeleteThe pigment sprinkles really pop-good control to get the rainbow effect-the sprinkles can be hard to direct!
ReplyDeleteWowsers!! The brightness is amazing! Love your card and love your driveway!!! Stunning.
ReplyDeleteGreat minds think alike! Pigment sprinkles were definitely the first thing that came to mind for me too with the rainbow theme. Great background and I love the butterflies and the addition of the black really makes the colours pop.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous rainbow card Nic - so vibrant with the sprinkles. And I love the driveway artwork!! I've been thinking of you during social distancing, you'd be missing hugs! Here's a virtual one x Kelly x
ReplyDeleteI am loving the rainbow colours with the black combo Nicole. So stunning! I had a play recently with the pigments and although they are so messy I had so much fun! Thanks for sharing your stunning card. Mandy x
ReplyDeleteWow Nicole, the pigment ink colours are so vibrant against the black, amazing card I love it.
