Joyful Stars Bog Hop

Welcome to the June Joyful Stars Blog Hop! Each month we have an anything goes style hop and it's a lot of fun! This month I'm showing off a new stamp set from Seasonal Expressions 2 called Jack Cardmaking. Even though card making is in the title it can be used in any kind of project not just cards.

If you've hopped over from the blog of Joyce Houck then you're on the right path. Just keep clicking the link in each post to continue to the next blog!

I stamped the bear in black on Desert Sand cardstock and used the matching Thin Cut to cut him out. Easy Peasy! I shadowed a bit where the marks are on his belly indicating a shadow and also below where he would be "standing" on the card. The background is from Rustic Home paper pack. The Pappy images are part of the stamp set and also have matching Thin Cuts. Oh...the bear paws holding the sign needed to be colored in and I used a Journal Pen to make the claws.

• Stamp Set: Jack Cardmaking Bundle
