Jumbo Stampendous Blog Hop!



Stampendous is so excited to announce their latest new product line...Jumbo Cling Rubber. These super sized designs make creating dramatic greeting cards and scrapbook pages effortless, but they can do so much more! They are ideal for use on textiles, walls, and all sorts of home décor projects. We felt like the best way to really introduce you to the possibilities was to invite you to our Jumbo Blog Hop! You will not believe the amazing projects their in-house, decorative painting guru Tammie Wilson has made with these beautiful stamps. We’re going to start off our hoppin’ here with some of her amazing creations. You’ll be able to see how to make these fabulous treasures on our new series of YouTube videos very soon. For now, enjoy Tammie’s genius then hop on over to the blogs of our dynamic Design Team. You won’t believe the gorgeous possibilities of these new, jumbo designs from the mind of our own Fran Seiford.

Here we go... First up the gorgeous and fabulous Cling Jumbo Hydrangea set...

I stamped the hydrangea flowers with 2 different purple shades of chalk in and the stem in chalk ink as well. I added some violet glitter from one of the amazing Glitz sets and also added some pretty Blue Violet Ultra Fine Crystal Glitter. The sentiment is also from a terrific new set called Friendship Assortment. A really easy and fun card to make that makes a bold statement. Those Jumbo images really pop and make card making simple and beautiful.


Next up is the sweet Cling Jumbo Butterfly Pair set...

I stamped this beautiful butterfly with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored it with Copics. I added some sparkle with Multi Ultra Fine Crystal Glitter. The sentiment is also part of a new set called Sincere Sentiments. I added the background pattern using another new set called Daisy Thanks stamped with Versamark ink.

Now get to hopping... you have until Feb. 2nd to leave a comment on each blog for your chance to win some wonderful Stampendous prizes.

Rachel,
I love your hydrangea card too! I always feel like I have to fill it images, but I love how you did the outline and sponged ink around the whole image to maintain the feel of a large bloom.
