There's nothing to not love about the July Bloom Box! Have you seen it? Because if you have, we know you love it as much as we do. This month we have a sweet summery stamp set that is perfect to use for so many different types of cards -- birthday, thank you & more. And the color palette? It's PERFECT for summer and it's just so beautifully coordinated. Do you have anyone in mind you would send these cards to?
How about a sweet friend? We think that the answer is for sure, yes! What is your favorite part of this card? Do you love the chocolate covered strawberries like we do? It's such a fun technique to create these berries with a Blending Brush, Clear Pigment Re-Inker and Journey White Embossing Powder. Do you want to try it?
WOW! But the fun doesn't end there, we have even MORE to share with you. How about a little painting and creating your own background paper? Yes? Okay then!
Look at all of that beautiful Candy Apple Liquid Color! It's just so bold and rich, it's perfect painted with our Square Paint Brush -- we can create a loose plaid background that is beautifully imperfect!
Interested in even more painted backgrounds?
We can do the same technique with the Fresh Forest Liquid Color and keeping the same idea with the loose plaid -- and it's imperfect nature. It makes the perfect background for those luscious stawberries, don't you think?
The cards are just stunning so far but they don't stop there, we have even more! And the plaid background - it just keeps on giving. Are you as smitten with this technique as we are?
Would you like to see some of the fun techniques that are included this month in action? You're in luck since Kim Kesti would love to show you some of our tips right here!
