The Ton’s 3rd Anniversary Release Blog Hop 1/24

Welcome to The Ton 3rd Anniversary Release Blog hop! It's Dana here and I'm so honored to be part of this wonderful blog hop. I hope you came from amazing LauraJane's blog, but if not, please check out today's mini blog hop list in the bottom of this post.

The Ton has 23 new stamps for their Third Anniversary Release which includes up to two free gifts with purchase (Daisy Duet and Peony Notes Bundle A+B+C). For more information on The Ton’s incentive gifts, head over to The Ton’s blog. All new release products are available now!

Now, it's time to get to my cards. I have 3 cards for celebrating The Ton's 3rd birthday today. Let's get started!

[1]


In my first card, I featured The Ton Fresh Cut Daises stamp set. I stamped each 3 layers of flower stamps and 2 layers of stem and leaf stamps very carefully onto white card stock. I fussy cut them out using scissors. I added white dots in the center of flowers using white gel pen.

For background, I sponged Distress Ink, Salty Ocean, Tumbled Glass and Mowed Lawn using mini blending tool on A2 sized bristol paper. I splattered same inks with water here and there using paint brush.

I then stamped sentiment from The Ton Peony Notes Bundle with light grey dye ink. I finished off this card by foam mounting all elements as shown.

The Ton Peony Notes A+B+C stamp set is just amazing. It works so beautifully just by stamping as an original design, but I'd like to show you some fun way to use set C.


First, I stamped layered flower bouquet from set A and B using several dye inks and stamped background from set C using Distress Oxide Ink, Seedless Preserves.

I then lightly taped stamped panel on my stamping tool, Tonic Tim Holtz Stamp Platform. I created stripes using post-it tape as shown in the picture and stamped set C again using Versafine Onyx Black. I was so happy to get a striped background easily without masking the flower image! Isn't it awesome?

To finish, I gold heat embossed sentiments from same stamp set and splattered gold drawing ink here and there using paint brush.

For my last card, I created a floral patterned paper using The Ton Timeless Peony Print stamp set. This stamp is so versatile to use and I made spring themed paper at this time. If you want to see my future color combo with this stamp set, please follow me on Instagram or Facebook

Peony bouquet image includes 3 layering stamps, but I stamped just two layers in most of flowers except the center one. After stamping all images, I cut floral panel as shown using trimmer and craft knife and glued it onto A2 sized woodgrain card stock.

I stamped sentiments from The Ton Peonies Note Bundle onto floral panel. I white heat embossed the other sentiment from same stamp set on yellow card stock and popped it up using foam tape. To finish, I embellished some clear sequins where I wanted them.


I hope you enjoyed these cards. Thank you so much for stopping by and happy hopping!

  33. Well done on masking that striped background. It really adds a fun flair to that card. And I enjoy how you did the first sentiment in grey; that really lets the flowers take center stage even with such bold sentiment. I'll have to remember that for the future. Thanks for sharing with us!
