SNSS March Release Hop

Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps is celebrating their new stamp release today with a fun blog hop, and I have some designs in the mix! So excited to finally share them with you here. If you just happened on the blog hop because you're a regular reader of my blog, and you'd like to view the entire hop, you can start back at the Sweet 'n Sassy Blog - you'll find a full list of participants there, and all the details you need. If you're already hopping and you arrived here from Holly's blog, you're doing just fine.

My first card is pretty clean and simple - I created a reverse mask and stamped the Friendship Script background, sponging around the edges of the mask, then stamped the cancellation stamp with some coordinating stamps from the Vintage Postcard set.
I added some Crystal Lacquer to the heart for a little dimension and shine.
I wanted to mix the postcard stamps with a set from last month's release, too, since I didn't have a card to share for the hop in February! This card was colored with Touch Twin Markers on watercolor paper.I also used markers to color my ribbon - I love this way of matching my ribbon to my project.
These are the markers that I used:After you leave a comment here you'll be hopping on to my dear friend Bridget's blog! Hope you are enjoying the hop! If you like my stamp designs, stop by and 'like' dkdesigns on Facebook!

Thanks for stopping by!
