Stamp Review Crew: Enduring Beauty

Hello and welcome to the latest Stamp Review Crew Blog Hop!  Our international crew highlights one Stampin' Up stamp set on each blog hop.  Hops are the first and third Mondays of the month and are a great way to get lots of ideas for using a set!

If you click on the banner below you will be taken to the Stamp Review Crew website which has a complete list crew members and you can see all the past hops as well. 

Our stamp set this time is the very pretty Enduring Beauty set.    I chose a simple two color palette of Pretty Peacock and Crumb Cake.  First I stamped the image on Shimmery White Cardstock, colored select portions with Stampin' Blends and fussy cut a few flowers and leaves. 

Next I had fun with the background!   Stamping the grid image from Notes of Nature (tone-on-tone and stamped off once)  then sewing the ribbons and trims in place and finally sewing some extra lines -  some with the sewing machine threaded and some without.   I purposely left the thread tails untrimmed.   

This is my little craft room sewing machine.  It is so cute- just 10 inched wide!   I use it only for paper as the needle dulls when stitching on paper and changing the needle on my regular sewing machine is kind of a pain. 

I'm so glad you have visited today!  Please click on the buttons below to see more ideas for using the Enduring Beauty stamp set.  Up next is Heidi Baks - she always has creative little details in her projects that are delightful!
