Summer Cards – SkyPaperScissors

Hello and welcome! We’re blog hopping today to celebrate the June Hero Studio collection. These sets are available by subscription so if you’re not already a monthly subscriber, be sure to check out all of the Hero Studio subscriptions options!

This month’s theme, Coastal Vibes, is one of my favorites! I love all the summery beachy supplies and when I saw the cute tote and baguette dies, I knew I had to make a tote full of bread, lol. There are so many cute elements in Card Kit of the Month but I do love bread and flowers!

Hey There

My first card features the May Card Kit of the Month. I die cut the beach tote elements and contents from Fawn, Coral, Waterfall, Lavender, and Peridot cardstock (the first three colors are included in the kit. I used blending brushes and several ink colors to add a bit of shading to each element; Fawn for the tote and bread, Pale Tomato for the scarf, Paradise for the bottom of the tote, and Orchid for the flowers.

Next, I used Arctic ink to stamp the June Cling of the Month: Seaside Stripe onto a piece of Seaside cardstock (included in the kit).

To assemble the card, I glued the striped panel to the bottom of a 4.25″ x 5.5″ panel white cardstock and then used foam tape and glue to adhere the tote bag and all of it’s contents to the panel. I added a small sentiment created with the bonus stamp and die set (available when you purchase The Whole Studio) and then glued the card front to a card base.

Sending Hugs

My second card features the beautiful June Layering Stencils of the Month: Hydrangea set.

For this quick and easy card, I started with a 4.25″ x 5.5″ panel of Windy cardstock and then, one by one, positioned and inked blended over each layer of the stencil set. For the flowers I used Dusty Blue and Orchid for the petals and Aquatic for the flower centers. The leaves are Kiwi and Fresh Lawn. To finish, I added a stamped and die cut sentiment, again made with the bonus stamp and die set (available when you purchase The Whole Studio) and then glued the card front to a card base.
