Blog Loving Friends Spring Hop

This is my second time hoping with this very talented group of Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators. This month we are celebrating the upcoming spring season.  I can’t wait for 75 and sunny!!!

I have really taken a step back over the past few weeks and thought about basic stamping and how pretty it can be. There is something to be said about going back to the basics! Or in this case your first ❤. Stamping does not always have to lead to coloring, collage, ventage looks, and so on. We all should learn to embrace the simple elegance of a beautiful stamped image!  So, today I’m sharing a series of cards that are stamped in whisper white pigment ink.  The sentiments are all stamped in basic black.  This gives good contrast to the white stamping.  I adore clean and simple cards! They always seem to have a great modern feel to me!   I have been in mass production card making mood. Clean and simple cards definitely make mass production easier and fun!  So, here we go…

This card is not  necessarily a spring card.  Though I do think that being on the beach does scream spring break. This beach seems more exotic get away to me. Anyhow,  I really just wanted to share that this simple technique really works with just about style of stamp! I love how the white stamping on the gray looks like an etching

Some colors just scream spring! Coastal Cabana is definitely one of those colors!  I have been thinking about how I really wanted to use this swirly stamp from Beauty Abounds.  The white and simplicity of the card really allows for the beauty of the stamp shine!!!!

The Wonderful Romance stamp set is quickly becoming a favorite!  I truly love this set so much!! Granny Apple Green is another one of those. “It must be spring” colors!  This is truly a happy color!!!

The All That You Are stamp set has everything I love about stamping! Pretty images that are perfect for coloring. Yet, beautiful enough to be simply stamped. I kept each card quite simple. But, you could add thread, bakers twine, sequins, or enamel dots to spice it up a bit!

I have been longing to use the pretty roses in the Tea Together stamp set!  I’m hoping to get a moment to color them very soon! But, until then I will just stamp them to creat my one custom Designer Paper! What fun!!!

I hope you will give your white pigment ink a second look!  It really is a wonderful way to make several cards quickly. Especially now that we have a stamperatious.
