Hello and welcome to the Really Reasonable Ribbon and Hampton Art Breast Cancer Awareness Blog Hop! The RRR DT has joined up with the Hampton Art Dt to show you a bunch of fantastic projects using Really Reasonable Ribbon and Hampton Art products! Special thanks to Hampton Art for sending me Stamps and Ink to use for this hop.
If you are following along with the hop, you have come from Linda's Blog. If not, please to to the Really Reasonable Ribbon blog or to the Hampton Art Blog to get started! You don't want to miss a stop along the way with this hop....there are some beautiful projects.
For my project today, I made an accordian card using lots of RRR ribbon and trims plus a wonderful stamp set from Hampton Art called Carpe Diem. This is a clear stamp set with 14 stamps in the Art Warehouse line from Hampton Art. Here is my accordian tag card.
This accordian tag card measures 5 1/2" x 10" and is scored at every 2 1/2". I actually did this in 2 panels so I could cut the top of each panel using a die from the Creative Book pages set from Spellbinders™ Paper Arts. This is called selective cutting and I can show you this technique in another post if you are interested. I stamped all over, didn't I? These clear stamps are really high quality, taking ink very well and were fun to use!
Here are a few close-ups.
These words are actually 3 different stamps that I put together. I stamped them onto some Simply Smooth Ivory using Rich Cocoa Memento ink. Then I used on oval die template to cut/emboss this. I sponged the edges with Antique Linen Distress Ink and layered it onto S5-030 Fancy Tags Two that I cut/emboss from pink cardstock. I used the Antique Linen Distress Ink on almost every edge of this project. I stamped the bird using Victorian Velvet Distress Ink and fussy cut it out adding stickles after everything was finished! Those beautiful pink rhinestones are also from Hampton Art Studio G line of self adhesive gems.
Ok now that you have enjoyed my project, its time to go to your next stop! Please hop on over to Gini Cagle's blog! Have a fun time checking out all the Really Reasonable Ribbon and Hampton Art goodies along the way!

Love the shape and colors of your design. Vintage looking, which I thinks gives warmth and love. ... well done.
