Angel Art Blog Hop: Hostess Sets: Happy Today

Sorry I fell off the blog posting wagon but it's a busy time at my day job. :) However, I found time to play in the Paperwings Angel Art Blog Hop. This one features hostess sets from the current TAC catalogs - so fun! You can get free stamps with a $100 party so it's a great way to add to your collection of stamps! (or am I the only one with a collection of stamps - lol!).

I decided to play with the Level A hostess set, Happy Today!

What a fun and sweet little set this is. I stamped the little girl and the flowers with momento tuxedo black ink on ivory cardstock. Then, I used a variety of copics from the copic caboodles and used two to three of each color family to color the images. I'm not totally enamored with how I did the grass but I'm still learning. Love those markers!

And, here's another hostess set blog post from last September. It's a holiday vintage image embossed in copper. How can you go wrong with that combo?

Be sure to visit the other ladies in the hop and check out the fabulous ways in which they used the hostess sets:
