Chosen Family, Chosen Love Pride Hop | Stamp Anniething Pride Stamps

-


Hello everyone.  I'm honored to be participating in this month's Chosen Family, Chosen Love Pride Hop with 5 other amazing and talented makers (listed down below), featuring the beautiful Chosen Family, Chosen Love collection from Stamp Anniething, which was created to celebrate the families we build, the friendships that become family, and the people who love us exactly as we are. This special release gives back in a meaningful way.

Throughout June, 10% of proceeds from the Chosen Family, Chosen Love stamp set, and 100% of sales from Stamp Anniething's 2SLGBTQIA+ digital stamp collection will be donated to True Colors United, a prominent nonprofit co-founded by Cyndi Lauper, working to end homelessness among LGBTQIA+ youth.

I made two fun and colorful cards to kick off Pride Month and for hop. You can see how I made them in THIS video on my YouTube Channel. Or, just click below to watch.


Links to what I used in the cards: Chosen Family, Chosen Love 6 x 8 Stamp Set
Spectrum Noir Tri Blend Markers - colors used for the rainbow - Dark Red Blend, Orange Blend, Citrus Blend, Light Green Blend, True Blue Blend, Lavender Blend, and Purple Blend.


Below are the makers taking part in the Pride Hop. I invite you to hop along with us, leave some love in the comments, and support these amazing creators by liking, commenting, and following their accounts if you don't already.

Introducing Bella Bulb - A Member Of Craft Hoarder's Anonymous

When I was first approached to be part of the StencilGirl/Craft Hoarders Anonymous Challenge blog hop, I just laughed out loud!  Me?  A craft hoarder?  Duh!  Not only have I been hoarding craft supplies for over 20 years but when I moved here to Brasil from New York City, I took it all with me.  And then I started to hoard Brasilian craft supplies. Okay, I admit it - I AM A CRAFT HOARDER!     For this blog hop, the artists had only two rules - use StencilGirl stencils and then to dig through our craft hoard and use whatever we wanted to use.  I grabbed stencils (duh) sprays, pastes, paints, makeup sponges, lots and lots of BLING, you name it.  Heck, I even grabbed my bag of keyboard letters and some fake eyelashes that were in the hoard.  Told ya, I am a craft hoarder. There is something very freeing about just using stuff from my hoard and making a piece of art.  I did not do much thinking here.  I did know what st...

  Hello everyone!  It's the 15th of the month and that means that there is a new "Anything Goes" card challenge over on the  QKR Stampede Challenge Blog .   Since Easter is fast approaching I decided to make an Easter card and fell in love with the Happy Easter with Bouquet Digital Stamp .  I knew this would make a beautiful slimline Easter card.   I printed the Happy Easter with Bouquet digital stamp - twice - on a sheet of white cardstock and colored one of them using some GRAF Duo alcohol markers and the Key Lime ultra fine-tip maker from BIC.    Next, I die-cut it using the smaller stitched slimline die from the Slim Stitched Rectangle Die Set from Pink Fresh Studio. Next, I made my card base, 3.5" x 8.5", using a sheet of dark pink/hot pink cardstock to which I adhered a piece of "Easterish" paper to the front and a piece of white cardstock to the inside for a message.   I also layered my Happy Easter on a piece of the sa...
