SCACD - Reflections Release Blog Hop




Hello everyone and welcome to the SCACD - Reflections Release Blog Hop. I am proud to be part of this hop as a Guest Designer! I was totally excited when Susana from SCACD asked me if I would like to be a GDT for this Reflectiosn Release Blog Hop! And of course I liked to!!!! :-) THANK YOU Susana!!!And I can tell you this is such a fabulous release! Susana chose a fantastic artist, Carmen Medlin,f or her new line of stamps!

Ok on to the hop now....You should have arrived here from the incredibly talented Judy. If yes you are on the right track if not you might want to go back to the SCACD store blog to start your hop off right!!! If you get lost on your way you can go always back to the the store blog where you'll find the complete blog hop order list!

The stamp I like to present to you today from the Reflections Set #1 - Carmen Medlin for SCACD is called 'Pearl Princess'.

Isn't she just lovely? She looks so elegant, fragile and has so delicately chiseled features... just like a mermaid is supposed to be! Well at least in my imagination..LOL  I colored her using my Copics. She was stamped onto X-press it blending paper using Memento Tuxedo Black ink.


 I added lots of glimmer to the image as well as the flowers. I used different kinds of Stickles for that. 


Flowers, ribbon and charm are from my stash. Pearl swirls are from Prima and the rhinestone swirls are from Recollections. For the die cut swirls I used a Magnolia DooHickey die. Sentiment is from Whimsy.
