The Ton's Summer Release - Day 1

Hello and welcome to Day 1 of The Ton's Summer Release 2017 event!
I'm so excited to be showcasing some of The Ton's new summer line of stamps this week. Of course there are always those amazing florals!  It just wouldn't be summer without those right?  But be sure to keep your eyes peeled later in the week because you are going to see some new layered stamps that are like no others that I have ever seen before!  Effie really rocked these designs and I would really like to hear from you and what you think of them.  I think it just may be my favorite release ever!!

For The Ton's Summer 2017, Effie has released 24 new stamp designs, coordinating dies, 1 new couture mix and 6 new backdrop board designs!

 There are also four new gifts with purchases that you can obtain with this new release: *

• Spend $75 or more: Receive a free pack of our new Summer Soiree Couture Mix

• Spend $100 or more: Receive a 2x3 Floral Mini Banner Stamp (and Summer Soiree Mix)

• Spend $150 or more: Receive a 2x3 Anemone Cluster Mini Stamp (and Floral Mini Banner Stamp and Summer Soiree Mix).

• Spend $200 or more: Receive a 3x4 Watercolor Bouquet Set (and an Anemone Cluster Mini stamp, Floral Mini Banner Stamp and Summer Soiree Mix).

For my card today I pulled out some masking paper so that I could layer up a beautiful bouquet of


Fresh Cut Anemones

 This layered Anemones stamp set is so rich in detail.  They are super easy to line up and they can be stamped in any color combination.  I googled Anemones before I started this card because I wanted to see some real ones so that I could pick out the perfect colors.  There were so many color combinations out there that I decided to make all three of mine different shades because I couldn't make up my mind.  You'll notice by my extremely long list of ink colors that I went a little crazy with color, LOL!   The Fresh Cut Anemones stamp set also come with a beautiful, realistic looking vase. 

Stamps: Fresh Cut Anemones, Watercolor Bouquet (The Ton)
Inks:  Soft Garden, Bright Fern, Deep Emerald, Bright Emerald, Soft Amethyst, Iris Bloom, Violet Fringe, Ballet Slippers, Hollywood Star, Cosmopolitan Pink, Lipstick Red,  Cali Blue, Cobalt Breeze, Parisian Blue, Smoky Quartz, Vanilla Frosted Cupcake, Noir (The Ton)
Paper:  white cardstock 110 lb (Neenah).
Accessories:  Glass Slippers Mix (The Ton), Copic Markers, fun foam.


Look closely at the stamens on these flowers.  They are so finely detailed they almost look real!

I blended the background in Vanilla Frosted Cupcake ink and it made such a beautiful soft shade of yellow.  I also stenciled some small polkadots onto the background.  The sweet sentiment is also from a new stamp set called:
 

Watercolor Bouquet

  It's one of the incentive sets that The Ton is offering free with purchase of $200 or more.  The script in that stamp set is beautiful!
