It means there is so much goodness and inspiration in store for you along the hop! So, if you’ve got a few, get yourself comfortable, get to clicking and commenting!

Quick Links

Project Supplies and Hop Participants

To create: Stamp Weekend Doodle in Altenew Permanent Black ink. Then, using flick strokes, color in the flowers and leaves with Altenew Artist Markers. I used colors R301 Rouge and C001 Buttercream for the flowers and G702 Frayed Leaf and G715 Forest Glades for the leaves.

Next, use a T-square to draw in varying horizontal line thicknesses with an Altenew Artist Marker in WG03 Evening Gray. Die cut Fancy Hello in 3x in black. Adhere two together stacked. Gold Glitter heat emboss the 3rd several times for a thick, metal like look. Adhere golden Fancy Hello offset from the black die cuts to create a fine shadow. Attach to floral panel, and panel to folded card base.
