This week I am going to be doing something new on my blog. I thought every few weeks or so I would do an inspiration week featuring a company that I love to create with. Just a great way for me to use product I love, share the projects on my blog and promote companies that I think produce some pretty great products. (and no one is asking me or paying me to feature them...just some companies I really like their product) :-)
So this week I have decided to do an inspiration week with Technique Tuesday and Ali Edwards. More specifically the stamps that thay design together. There is two types of TT/AE stamps. The regular release ones that are sold at retailers and through the TT online store and the Studio AE ones that are part of a monthly subscription. (these can also be purchased at some online retailers and through the TT website but they are at a higher cost without a subscription and once they are sold out they're gone. A subscription ensures that you get your stamp set every month and at a cheaper cost)
I am a subscriber of Studio AE and have also purchased a ton of the regular release sets. I LOVE my TT/AE stamp sets! I am a scrapbooker and a cardmaker and these stamps are so great for both. They offer the perfect addition to layouts and also serve as great sentiments for cards.
So for the first day of inspiration week I have a few cards to share that I created with a mix of regular stamp sets as well as some Studio AE sets.
Hello Sweet Baby
This card features the stamp set Sweet Baby by Ali Edwards. One of my favourite sets she has released! This set works for more than just baby cards and layouts too! :-)
And Many More
This card uses the Studio AE set Cake and Candles. I'm not usually a huge birthday card person (they are my least favourite card to make) but this set made creating a card so easy! Unfortunately this set is no longer available for purchase.
Simple Beauty
This is a front fold card (a card technique learned from Jennifer McGuire) that features 2 stamp sets. Both are Studio AE sets called Get Outside and Real Life. Another great thing I love about the stamps is how easy the sets are to mix and match. And the stamping on the inside of the card leaves enough space at the bottom for the card to be signed.
Thank you so much for joining me for day one of TT/AE Inspiration week. I hope these cards have inspired you to get out those stamps and ink and make some cards! :-)
Oh and I can't forget about the giveaway!
