{Fun Friday With Your Next Stamp}

                                                       FunFriApril20-3                                   


 Hello friends! Welcome to another super Fun Friday with Your Next Stamp! Today I am posting a card using the April New Release stamp set "Hot Stuff Mug Set". This set has 3 matching dies (sold separately) that will die cut any of the adorable mugs in the set. Fun! I knew I wanted to create a bright springy card so I used patterned paper by The Paper Studio (Hobby Lobby's brand) that I picked up on my last trip to H.L. I used a floral cutting file by Lori Whitlock to create my adorable little daisy. I used the wood grain embossing folder to create my white wood grain card base. Which leads me to my Fun Friday Tip, or topic anyways,

"Incorporating wood grain elements onto your card."

  There are many different ways to accomplish this goal. Wood grain embossing folders, background stamps or wood grain buttons. Many different pattern paper companies have wood grain designs this year. Endless possibilities! You can use them as a subtle background on your cards, and believe me you will get lots of compliments on your cards!

   Thank you for coming to visit my blog today and check back this weekend for your chance to win a HUGE..(gets bigger everyday) blog candy giveaway!! Have a wonderful weekend!
