Create With Stamping Friends Saturday Blog Hop

The Hunt For Red October Theme!

Welcome to our Saturday Blog Hop at Create With Stamping Friends.  This week, we are all using reds on our projects for our Hunt For Red October theme. For the whole month of July, our themes will be based on movies with colors.

I used Poppy Parade and Cherry Cobbler for my reds and added in some Coastal Cabana for an offset color:

The Inspiring Snapdragons Bundle consists of the stamp set and coordinating dies. What I love the most about the dies is how they cut a bold layer that sits underneath a detailed layer. And what about those cute dragonflies? I used Wink Of Stella Clear Glitter Brush to color them and oh do they sparkle!

Stampin’ Up! Products Used:

• Stamps: Inspiring Snapdragons
• Inks: Cherry Cobbler, Coastal Cabana
• Cardstock: Cherry Cobbler, Poppy Parade, Coastal Cabana, Basic White
