Summer Mini Blog Hop!

Welcome to the Summer Mini catalogue Blog Hop, brought to you by the fabulous stampers at Stampin' Addicts! I am stop # 8 of this fantastic tour, where you will be sure to find loads of inspiration using NEW product from the Summer Mini catalogue! You will begin at one blog, and "hop" to the next blog until you completed a 25 post circuit. You probably came to me from Joyce's blog, stampincentral, where she created samples using the Mostly Vintage stencil.
I am showcasing the cool new alphabet set called Rough Type, found on page 28.
I hope you are inspired!

I love this card! I especially like the shredded up, torn ribbon! I used Extreme Elements and Extreme Skateboard as well as the Rough Type alphabet.

The card above also uses the mini vintage tags on page 15, and the stamp set Elements of Style on page 12. I also used the Big Shot lattice die and cut it in half.

The motorcycle card was inspired by a card I saw on someone's blog, but I can't remember whose. As soon as I find it, I'll link it here to give credit to the original designer.

So you're next stop will be Dawnmarie at DM Dezigns where she is doing great things with the Presto Patterns DSP! Enjoy the rest of the tour!
