June 2026 NC Demos Group Blog Hop

 

Welcome to the NC Demos Blog Hop.  We are here the last Sunday of each month and are so glad you could join us this evening.

This months theme is Let's Celebrate Summer and honestly summer is not my favorite season.  I lived most of my life on Long Island NY.  We had the bay on one side and the ocean on the other.  The beaches were always super crowded and they were like that each and every day.  I was able to find the perfect time to be at the beach - Sunset.  It's  just you, the ocean and the quite beauty of the ocean.  That is why when I saw the Scenic Coast suite I had to get it.  It reminded me of great summer days.

So naturally I had to make this card.  The DSP is simply gorgeous and makes the card.  My card is Blueberry Bushel with a layer of the Sunset Shimmer Vellum cut 5 1/4 x 4.  The DSP is cut 5 x 3 3/4 and before I added it to the card I stamped 2 sail boats on it making sure not to stamp on the shimmer area because ink doesn't adhere to it.

I then added the sentiment I fussy cut it kinda looks wavy like the ocean. Added some bling and my card was done.

I made another card too

Thank you so much for stopping by this evening and make sure you check out the other blogs for more great summer ideas.

See you next month, be safe and stamp on.

May 2026 NC Demos Blog Hop

 

Welcome to the NC Demos Blog Hop.  We are here the last day of each month and are so happy you can join us this evening.  

This months theme is "Sketch it Up".  Card sketches are great templates to look at when you need an idea and they give you creative freedom.  You can pick your own colors, stamp sets, DSP etc.

When I saw this sketch an idea came to mind but what I decided to do first which I have never done before was to do this sketch almost exact as it is printed and this is what I came up with. Lots of different sized circles and squares.  I wasn't going to cut very small squares for the lower left side so I used the new In Color butterflies they are kinda square.

Here is a close up

Then I did the card that first came to mind when I saw the sketch. It's hard to see the center embossed piece it is the same color as the background DSP.

Thanks so much for stopping by this evening and please make sure to stop and visit the other sites for more sketch it ideas.

Till next month be safe and stamp on.
