Stampin' Dreams - January 2023 - Love is in the Air

Thursday, 11 January 2024

Time for the Stampin' Dreams Blog Hop. We are a group of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators around the world who participate each month to share projects we are working on. Our theme this month is "Love is in the Air". I decided to make a wedding card using the Everyday Details Bundle and the gorgeous Flight & Airy Designer Series Paper.

This Designer Series Paper is stunning! I absolutely love the colours - who knew I'd fall in love with Bubble Bath and Boho Blue as a colour combination! I made this card on a recent sketch challenge. You can join me on Tuesdays at 2pm Pacific for a new sketch each week to use as inspiration.

Here's my sketch for this card.

Now, here's the card. Isn't it pretty! I love the Everyday Details Bundle. If you love it too, check out my Stamp a Stack class for February! It's the bundle we're using!
