Hi everyone and welcome! I'm so excited to be participating in The Ton's spring release blog hop today. Are you ready for a TON of inspiration and an awesome giveaway? Let's do it!
I've had spring fever the last couple of weeks and The Ton's new stamps are a HUGE reason why. These stamps are gorgeous!
I have to start by telling you about my absolute favorite stamp set in this release. When I saw this set for the first time I squeeled. I am such a bird lover and this set was right up my alley! If you love all of The Ton's layered florals you are going to go crazy over this layered hummingbird!
Hello Hummingbird
This little bird has multiple layers of gorgeous detail! It's very easy to line up and can be as colorful as you want it to be. Seriously, have you ever googled hummingbirds? You will get so many amazing photos of these beautiful, colorful birds and you'll want to stamp every one of them! The possibilities are endless!
For this first card I stamped and then cut out the hummingbird to place on top of this background that I heat embossed using the new Sending Peonies stamp set. Aren't those peonies gorgeous? After heat embossing them with clear powder, I went in with some color using my Zig Kuretake real brush watercolor markers. I sprayed over the color with water to get a nice blended watercolor affect. I popped up the hummingbird with a dimensional tape so he looks like he's hoovering around the flowers.

For this card I used the following supplies:
Stamps: Hello Hummingbird, Sending Peonies (The Ton). Ink: natural (My Favorite Things), wet cement, cup o' joe, passion flower, grape juice, field greens (Hero Arts Shadow Ink), onyx black (Versafine), clear emboss (Versamark), kuretake real brush watercolor markers (Zig). Paper: black (Simon Says Stamp), watercolor paper 140 lb (Canson), white 140 lb cardstock (Neenah). Accessories: clear embossing powder (WOW), clear wink of stella glitter pen (ZIG), dimensional tape, fun foam, clear sequins (unknown)
And to show you a few more color combinations using the Hello Hummingbird stamp set, I stamped three more color combinations for this card:

And to show you a few more color combinations using the Hello Hummingbird stamp set, I stamped three more color combinations for this card:
For this card I used the following supplies:
Stamps: Hello Hummingbird, Haute Stripes (The Ton). Ink: tide pool, wet cement, cup o' joe, field greens, grape juice, passion flower, pool, soft sky (Hero Arts Shadow Inks), catkin (Simon Says Stamp), natural (My Favorite Things), tumbled glass (Ranger Distress Ink), clear watermark (Versamark). Paper: black (Simon Says Stamp), watercolor 140 lb (Canson), white 140 lb cardstock (Neenah). Accessories: clear embossing powder (WOW), clear wink of stella glitter pen (ZIG), black 3-d paint (Ranger), dimensional tape, fun foam, clear sequins (unknown)
Next up, pulled out the platimum sparkle embossing powder to emboss the new Sending Peonies stamp set. Keeping this card a little more on the traditional side, I did some simple coloring with my Kuretake waterbrush markers.
For this card I used the following supplies:
Stamps: Sending Peonies (The Ton). Ink: clear watermark (Versamark). Paper: fog (Simon Says Stamp), watercolor 140 lb (Canson) white 140 lb cardstock (Neenah). Accessories: platinum sparkle embossing powder (WOW), kuretake real brush watercolor markers (Zig), gold pen (Gelly Roll), fun foam, clear sequins (unknown).
I love that the Sending Peonies stamp set has a large group of peonies, but it also has a single peony. This makes it so easy to cut out to add as an accent to any card. I coordinated it with the dots from the Bokeh Burst Round stamp set.
