Up! Demonstrator
Welcome to another Pootlers Blog Hop, this time we are celebrating the new Spring / Summer 2017 Catalogue which went live last week.
The Beautiful You stamp set has got to be my absolute favourite out of the new Spring and Summer Stampin' Up! catalogue. I was lucky enough to win it on the Prize Patrol at On Stage in Telford. When I first saw it I have to admit I was a little underwhelmed but as soon as I got home and started using it I fell in love.
I've made quite a few variations using the different ladies but I think this is my favourite. I have used Tip Top Taupe which is one of my favourite colours from the 15-17 In Colours. With the sponged edges it looks sepia and I just love that effect.
For the dress and hat I stamped on a piece of Tip Top Taupe Colour stack DSP and then fussy cut, not something I usually do but I think it was worth the effort.
I ended up making five different colourways although I think this is my favourite.
Here it is in Mint Macaron
This blog hop is slightly different to our normal ones, just click on a names below to be taken to that blog. Happy hopping.
