Get that toe a-tapping, because this set will have you Celebrating Good Times -- Come On! Build up those Buttercups in your life. Tell the crazy chicks you hang with that they are way too Superfly! We can almost guarantee you'll break into song while you stamp these musical memories. Mix and match the sentiments and graphics to create combinations that will have your besties saying, "Word Up!" This 4" by 6" set -- Marcella's Mixtape Vol. 1 -- was hand-drawn from the wonderfully creative pen of Marcella Hawley.This is a super fun set filled with a plethora of combinations!! I had a hard time choosing what images I wanted to work with. I tend to gravitate towards feathers, but I thought it would be fun to use one of the horns with a fun spray of sparkly noise using sequins and glitter. Yes, I used glitter again...it's so hard not to. It just feels like I'm celebrating a little more when I use it. I colored the horn with Copics, popped it up with dimensional tape, scored the background panels, punched a border and added some Washi Tape. An easy-peasy one layer card.
So, now that you have a little tune stuck in your head, why not dance it out? Twist on over and see the rest of the Bloom Brigade!
