Sister Stamps Release Day!

Hello, and welcome to Sister Stamps' release day! Yep, you can finally get your hands on these birthday cuties!


I made another card with cupcake girl Miyoko. She was colored with Copics and trimmed out. I stamped the hexagon border from Paper Smooches Geo Graphic set and colored them with the same colors on Miyoko's kimono. The sentiment is also from Paper Smooches and as a final touch, I added a bit of bling.




I had a few comments asking how I did the ombre effect on her kimono. Using Copics, I just blended two different colors that were side by side until they "fused" and didn't look so "stripey". Practice first on some scrap paper until you get the hang of it.

Also, the Copic colors that I used for the hair on all the images for this release were E71, E74 and E79.






All the stamps for Release #8 are now on sale at select retail locations listed on the sidebar of Sister Stamps' blog. Now hop over to see Kris' final project--I'm sure it will be awesome!

I'd like to wish Sister Stamps a Happy First Birthday and send a shout out to Jenny for inviting me to be a part of the celebration. Arigato!
