Layers of Beauty with Blended Background / Stamping With Melva

Layers of Beauty with Blended Background

Friday, 28 June 2024

I love it when there are many ways to use a stamp set or bundle! The Layers of Beauty Bundle is one of those bundles! The masks in the bundle make you feel like an artist or you can colour the stamped images with your Stampin' Blends, Watercolor Pencils or Markers. Today's card shows you another way to use the stamp on a blended background. Isn't this pretty in the 2024-2026 Stampin' Up! In Colors!

I love how this turned out in Petunia Pop, Pretty in Pink and Peach Pie!
