Hi and welcome back to my happy place. I have a new release to share with you from Joy Clair Designs. I love the florals and sentiments that are included in this set, but only used one of the floral images for this card. You just have to check out all the new stamps that came out this month, honestly I am head over heels for this release. I chose the sending hugs, sentiment as I am a hugger, and I really miss “my people”. This little snail mail hug is already at the post office for a sweet friend!
My digital images from the Floral Friendship stamp set were sized and arranged in Photoshop Elements and then colored with Copic markers. To get the stenciled background, I masked the florals and then lightly blended Clear Skies ink through the Diamond Fade stencil. For a little extra touches, I added a sparkle pen over the images, and blue bubble embellishments.

I do hope this inspires you to create something special for that somebody who needs a hug!

Thank you so much Carol! I really love stenciling because it has high impact but makes for a quick project! I appreciate you stopping by!
