BasicGrey + PSA Essentials Blog Hop!

First, in case you missed it...
*  I have a giveaway up here.
*  I have a challenge with a prize up here.

Now on to the hop...


Yep!  BasicGrey and PSA Essentials have teamed up for a blog hop!  You should have come from  Layle Koncar, if not, why don't you join us and start at the beginning on the BasicGrey blog.

So I have a couple projects to share with you.  They both use the fabulous new Plumeria collection from BasicGrey and the Topiary stamp set from PSA Essentials.

First up...a layout:


I stamped a column with the circle foliage stamp, and then stamped the tea pot with the circle too.  That white background was actually cut on my Cameo (a Kerri Bradford design I stumbled upon).  And then I couldn't find a place to put the journaling, so took a risk and wrote it write on the photo.  But here's a tip.  First I laid some clear plastic (trash...packaging from scrapbook supplies) and wrote on it first to see if I liked how it looked.  :)

To be honest, this layout didn't turn our exactly as I had envisioned, but it's ok.

Here are some close up's:

And then I also did a card.

Here it is:




Well, what would a blog hop be without a prize?

* 2 Peel & Stick stamp sets & 1 PSA Stamper (MSRP - $55)

Visiting from 2peas.... I really like the white paper cutout. AND the journalling on the photo. Both very unique, with a cool look.
