DCWV + May Arts Ribbon + Tombow Week!

Hello and welcome to the DCWV/May Arts/Tombow Triple Threat Blog Hop!  All this week, designers from these three great companies are sharing projects they created by teaming up some fun paper from DCWV’s Honey Chic stack, with a variety of adhesives from Tombow and some beautiful ribbon from May Arts.

 

If you have come here from Jennie Garcia then you're on track! If not, you can go back to any of the company websites and start the hop from there!   

I'm SO excited to show you the layout I created for this hop!

Even though this hop is happening during the summer I was really inspired to create this spring layout because I had this adorable photo of my nieces from an Easter Sunday many years ago.

I loved the lush, bright and textural ribbons and trims from May Arts and I was simply IN LOVE with the string of sequin hearts!  I decided that I would cut the hearts apart and then....I started making bows and I COULDN'T STOP!  So, I added little bows to all my little hearts - which is a sentence I lived my whole life to say, lol!

I love to add a strip of fringe-cut paper to my banners and it is SUPER important to have a strong adhesive for this technique - because the fringe needs to be manipulated a bit to get it to take on the same curve as the banners.  I used the Tombow EXTREME!

 

And it IS extremely strong! I loved how easy it went on and there really was a LOT on the roll.  As always with Tombow, the dispenser is refillable and it feels nice in your hand.  Then, I attached the whole, layered banner to the layout with some Power Tabs!

Be sure to visit all the blogs today and leave comments for your chance to win some great prizes!  Three lucky readers will win a Triple Threat prize pack of you own, including a stack from DCWV, a spool of ribbon from May Arts and Xtreme Adhesive, Power Tabs, Removable Adhesive and Fastener Tabs from Tombow. Winners will be chosen from comments throughout the week, so make sure you check back daily to increase your chances of winning! Also, please make sure you have popped on over to Facebook and “liked” each of the company pages (DCWV / May Arts / Tombow), because really, what’s not to like?!

Miss Kate Cuttables + Scrappy Mom's Stamps = Awesome Blog Hop!!!

 Helloooooo!! So excited to bring you my project for the Miss Kate + Scrappy Mom's Stamps Blog hop!!

DON'T forget to check the BLOG for today's FREEBIE!!!

__________________________

I just fell in LOVE with this set from Scrappy Mom's Stamps called "Fan-tastic!"

If you are a SUPER nerd like me (or you KNOW a lot of  nerds!) this is the perfect set to add to your collections of sentiments!

(Click for larger image)

There are SO many cute files that can be used with this set.  Superheros, witches, zombies, chemistry sets...these would all work with this set.  BUT, my idea was to use this CUTE "Out of This World" set!

As you know, I strive to keep my projects cute, but to also give them a LITTLE bit of sophistication by using patterns and layout ideas that show the versatility of MKC files.

I'm SOOOO pleased with how this card came out.  I had a DCWV Stack from a year or so ago that featured lots of cosmos, stars, and planetary motifs.  I was FLOORED when I saw how amazing the moon print looked when I cut used it for the moon SVG.  The little alien and the spaceship are cut from some Basic Grey textured solids from various 6x6 pads.  

AND, last, but not least, the stamp was FLAWLESS in quality and didn't even have to be conditioned - it stamped PERFECT the first time!  I used Heidi Swapp ink (which I love, BTW!)
