Stampendous ATB Block Hop Day 5

27 Feb

I can not believe the amazing creativity being showcased on my Sizzix Artist Trading Blocks in our block hop with Stampendous this week. Here we are on Day 5 of the Stampendous ATB Block Hop and the inspiration continues! Just when you think this hop couldn’t get any better, it does. Have a look at the latest ATBs created by my Inspiration Team and Stampendous…

Anne Redfern’s Blossoming Butterfly ATB creation will put some “Spring” in your step and warm your creative soul! I just love how Anne has added such dimension to the Stampendous butterflies and the delicate paper piecing of the Wild Roses stamps.

Visit Anne’s blog for more lovely details on this Blossoming Butterfly ATB!

Donna Budzynski’s project is like a warm spring breeze! You can almost smell the Hydrangeas featured on this gorgeous ATB. The Stampendous Hydrangea Cling Stamp and matching cutting set was used with Donna’s outstanding coloring. Black Matboard and Spoonful of Gold embossing powder give this project serious POP!

Take a walk through a garden of creativity at Donna’s blog and take a whiff of some amazing ATB techniques!

Diana Hetherington is taking us on a trip to the magical land of Oz with her ATB creation! She is a creative wizard indeed!
