To see who won, check the Big News Forum at StampTV a few days after the hop. Ready for some inspiration? Here are a few of the projects I have created for today’s hop:

This first card is done with that same patterned paper from yesterday, and the die cut of the balloon from the StampTV kit. I only cut a portion of the die and then added the bakers twine and adhered it with clear glue. The sentiment is in black ink.

This card is the turquoise base with a piece of watercolor paper on it. I had watercolored this image about a week ago and it was a perfect match for the base. I stamped the flower images and clouds, along with the sentiment in black. I used a white marker to fill in part of the clouds and flowers/leaves.

This second card also uses part of the same piece of designer paper, simply cut from the other edge of the paper. This is a Kraft base.
