April SOTM Blog Hop - Typed Note


Welcome to this months stamp of the month blog hop. This month we are featuring Typed Note. This is a circle hop, so keep hopping until you reach the blog you started at. If you did not start here, you should be coming from {Justine Hovey}. Next in this hop is {Michelle Johns}





I wasn't sure about this stamp set, so I went to Pinterest to get some inspiration. 


I found this image and had to make this with the stamp.


To make this, I took a strip of White Daisy cardstock and folded it so it could make the image stand on its own. I embossed the name. The versamark marker wasn't as thin as I wanted, so I don't like how it looks. And it is my handwriting. 

I uploaded the image of the typewriter into Design Space so the Explore would cut the image out. I sized it wrong, so I did have to cut a white edge by hand. But it wasn't much. 


I also came across this image, and I wanted to remake it.


I used a bunch of new product on this card. I wanted to use a couple different flowers like the do in the image, but I couldn't find flowers in the size I needed. I hand cut the flowers. Not sure why. The banner is from Artiste, #MBBEE2. 

I have more projects using this stamp set this month, so come back later.

I hope you enjoyed my projects. Next in this hop is {Michelle Johns}.
