Hello and welcome to my stop on the Hero Arts + BasicGrey Blog Hop!
Today we are featuring some gorgeous products from the new Spice Market collection. There are two clear stamp sets and three backgrounds to coordinate with the collection and let me tell you, they are amazing!!!
My first card features the Flower Symbol Background paired with some items from Kelly Purkey's new Mon Ami collection.
I love the subtle tone on tone background created with clear embossing powder. And this is a stamp that will work well with many different styles.
Next up, I've made a card with the Best Time Ever clear stamp set. This set has so many great images for building your own backgrounds.
I just did a video for Hero Arts that shows how I made the pattern on this card as well as two others using stamps from Spice Market -- you can check it out HERE.
To celebrate the release of Spice Market, Hero Arts and BasicGrey are having an awesome giveaway!
They will be giving away two complete Spice Market collections -- including paper, embellishments, clear and cling stamp!

ReplyDeleteFabulous cards & video Kelly! I adore pattern building stamps. They are so small (for storage) & offer such versatility. I am still learning, so I often misalign my stamped images. But that's okay. I simply die-cut a pretty shape from the good bit & make a card with that ;-) thanks for all the hints & tips tgat make it easier. Theresa x
