Let's Get Hopping | Back to Basics


Hi. Welcome back to another Let's Get Hopping Blog Hop.

Today's hop is all about getting "Back to the Basics" and sharing a project that's been created without the tools and gadgets we all love.
I've got to say, this challenge was tough. It really highlighted to me how much I rely on gadgets like my BigShot, punches and colouring tools to add detail to my projects. However, I'm really glad I persisted and here's the project I created



Inspired by this week's TGIF challenge theme of Gratitude I was drawn to this lovely script stamp from All Things Thanks. To add a little extra dimension I stamped the sentiment first in Powder Pink and then in Berry Burst.


The background was created by randomly stamping the large flower from Birthday Blooms in Basic Black Archival ink on Whisper White cardstock and I couldn't resist adding a little extra bling with some ribbon, bakers twine and a tassel.


Hopefully, I've inspired you to give the gadgets a break and have a go at creating a project with just some stamps, paper and ink.

For more "Back to Basics" inspiration, please click on the next button below and continue on the hop. I can't wait to see what Diana Tillery  has come up with

    ooh, I like what you did with the ribbon. I might try it soon even though I fear OCD within might come out...
    I am not a huge fan of powder pink but your shadow stamping with berry burst is inspiring. thank you

      Thanks Eva. I don't get Powder Pink out much either but it definitely worked well with Berry Burst

    What a gorgeous card Tanya, I love stamping backgrounds, but the black and white with a pop of colour is stunning.
