  Stamping with Friends Blog Hop features Masking Technique   My project is a Masked Waves Scene With the masking paper, some die-cut or hand-made templates, stamps and blending brushes you can make a lovely and unique scene. No two cards will be identical. For this one I chose one of my favourite stamp sets "Waves of the Ocean" - I used the bundle and had the die to cut the mask for the pelican on a post. If you only have the stamp set, you can stamp the pelican on a post image directly on the masking paper and cut it out. If you choose not to use the masking paper, you could use copy paper and tape it down where desired. SUPPLIES Stamps and Dies 158841 Waves of Inspiration Bundle (English) 155480 Stampin' Up!

  Christmas in July This Stamping with Friends Blog Hop theme is Christmas in July, I had to use my favourite from the new July-December 2022 mini catalogue. I grew up on a farm that was my grandparents’ homestead so anything farm related as long as it is a realistic image, I am all over it! The Christmas Barn Bundle was the first one that caught my eye and I had to have it. Then since I am a funfold gal, I worked on coming up with something to suit the set. I decided to create a tri-fold with the front two looking like barn doors. I call this the Christmas Barn Funfold   It is a card showing barn doors when the card is closed, see top, opened shows a barn scene and includes a belly band to keep it closed so when you slip it off, the surprise is revealed. Here are the supplies you will need to recreate what I did.
