August Blog Hop @ FTHS

Welcome to our From the Heart Stamps blog hop.
We have a “Use Your Stash” Theme this month.
We have lots of gorgeous projects.

As you hop along, please leave a comment on each blog. One random commenter will be selected on each blog to win an image of choice from the FTHS store. And one lucky commentator on the FTHS blog has the chance to win a $ 15 voucher.

If you have arrived from Lyn, you are in the right place, if not why don’t you start on the From the Heart Stamps blog, so you don’t miss anything.

Here is my project, and from my stash I used sequins.
I have been "hoarding' this stuff for awhile. Had great intentions of using but always forget about the "stash" I have.
 
 
Paper: Fancy Pants Making Waves
Color Medium: Copics
Other Supplies: Smooch Glitz in Frost, Glossy Accents, atyou Spica pen in 06 Melon, Sequins
 
I also used our newest i {heart} sketch # 160,
along with the twist.
 
 
And here is a pic of the container my sequin stash is in.
I LOVE this container. As you can see it holds 24 smaller containers inside one bigger container. I found this at our local Menards store.
 Very handy and was reasonably priced!
 
Well I hope you liked my card!
 
Now it's time to head over to Ruth and see what she has created.

 The hop will end on Sunday Aug 7th at 6 am EST.

Winners will be posted on the From the Heart Stamps Blog on Wednesday Aug 10th.


Thanks for hopping with us today.

  7. Michelle, what a fun card! So perfect for summer! And that container from Menard's for your sequins is brilliant! I'll have to look into getting something like that for all my little baggies of sequins! I thought I was doing well just to have all the baggies together in one place!
