Amazing Life Birthday - April 2019 SBTD Blog Hop

Hello Hivers, 

Welcome to another Stampers By The Dozen Blog Hop.  This month our theme is Birthdays.  I recently seen a technique and wanted to try it out for myself.  I think the results were fantabulous!

What do you think?

Debbie Henderson is calling this the Blenders & Alcohol Background Technique.  I just scribbled on a Window Sheet with three different colored Stampin' Blends in a random pattern.  Next, I quickly spritzed it with a mixture of Rubbing Alcohol and Champagne Shimmer Mist. Then I placed my paper onto the acetate, Glossy side down,  rubbing firmly.  Lift and let dry.  (Caution:  Don't leave the paper on the acetate too long, it will start to stick.)  Finally, I die cut my paper using the Rectangle Stitched Framelits to use on my card.

I hope you have enjoyed your visit to the Hive today.  Sooo...What did you think of my project for this Hop?  Leave a comment and let me know. 

Remember, this is a Blog Hop, the excitement continues...

Hop on over to Carly's blog...she is up next in the Blog Hop.

April Customer Thank You Card

Hello Hivers, 

I don't usually share my customer thank you cards, but I really liked the color combination on this card.  The colors are Grapefruit Grove and Merry Merlot with a pop of Granny Apple Green.

I used the Just Because host stamp set along with the Layered Leaves TIEF, In Color 6" x 6" DSP, Stitched Shapes Framelits, Layering Circles Framelits, and the Happiness Blooms Enamel Dots. Of course I added a little Wink of Stella to the leaves of the stamped image.

As always, thanks for Buzzzing by the Hive today. 
Until next time....Buzzz you later.
