Welcome to the August Heart of the West Blog Hop!! I hope you have been enjoying this hop!! We have some very talented people, and a great color palette to work with this month!!
If you have come from Donna Thomson-Digby's blog, then you're in the right place!! Don't worry if you get "lost", this is a circular hop, so you can join in anywhere!
For this month, I made 2 cards. My first card uses the masking tape technique, that a fellow CTMH sister shared, and I really wanted to try it!!
I used whisper, sky and sorbet for the background, and stamped my image with outdoor denim and pear. The stamp is from SU, and I used grey wool twine from CTMH.
My second card I really wanted to try the "smack down" technique, but I just wasn't satisfied with the way it was turning out so I went a whole other way.
The stamp I used was a hostess stamp, and is no longer available. So cute though!! :) So there you have it, those are my projects for this month.
Your next stop is: Holly Young-Bowers's blog. I hope you are enjoying this hop, and I hope you are able to join us next month as well!! Below is a list of everyone participating this month.
