Alaska Achievers July Blog Hop

Thank you for joining us for our July Alaskan Achievers blog hop. Those hopping today are Stampin' Up!® Demonstrators from all around the world that have achieved the prestigious Stampin' Up! Incentive trip. We will be hopping together once a month to show you ideas and designs using current Stampin' Up!® products. I live in Minnesota in the US and would love to help you if you have any questions.

You may just be starting the blog hop here at my blog - Jennifer Michalski @ Stamping Serenity or may have come from the person previous to me in the list.  If you get off track at any time, the full lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all the fun. At the moment you are visiting Jennifer Michalski @ Stamping Serenity.  Our hop theme in July is the 2018-2019 Annual Catalog.
This card is made using the Impossible Card idea!  I love how fun these impossible cards are to make :)  I used the Petal Promenade Design Series Paper along with the Abstract Impressions Bundle that includes the stamp set and die cuts.
The Delicate Lace Edgelits made the perfect "fence" on the card base with a strip of the burlap ribbon and the bow made with the Tea Room Ribbon Combo Pack in Very Vanilla.  I snipped the end of the sentiment with the Banner Triple Punch.
I used a variety of the Stampin' Blend Markers in Calypso Coral, Flirty Flamingo, Petal Pink and Poppy Parade for the colors on the butterfly.
The Impossible Card is really not that impossible to make.  Here are the PDF Instructions for you to try it out yourself and here is the Video for added details.
Thanks for taking part in our blog hop, there are so many amazing ideas and inspiration you don't want to miss.  Remember that currently you are at my blog - Jennifer Michalski @ Stamping Serenity, so check the blog hop line up list to see who is next.

Time For Tea for #GDP147

Today I played along with the Global Design Project Challenge #GDP147.  The farm/country theme this week can be interpreted in so many different ways.  For some it could be hearty country cooking with jams and jellies or pies with fluffy crust, it could be a country fair with amusement rides or it could be a fun farm animal or pet.  Have fun and play along too:
For this card I used the Time For Tea Bundle.  My Grandma used to always tell me how she would make her dad tea when he came in from the field on the farm, so when I think farm I think tea, hot tea :)
This stamp set had the perfect sentiment for this project too.  Maybe I will go ahead and send it to Grandma and remind her of all the fun stories she told me when I was a kid.

Thanks for stopping by and letting me share the joy of stamping with you.
