It's time once again for the monthly Gentlemen Crafters Design Team Blog Hop. The Gentlemen Crafters Design Team (#TGCDT) are a group of male crafters & Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from around the world, that love to share our creative side with you on the 2nd Friday of each month. Be sure to visit all the presenters in this month's hop - links can be found at the bottom of this post. 

This month I am working with the beautiful Hydrangea Hill Designer Series Paper, the coordinating Pastel Pearls and some other basic supplies to make two cards.  This paper is so easy to use on it's own, you really don't need anything else.  It pairs well with any sentiment stamp set, so I'm using the Ornate Thanks because I think the scripted font works well with the delicateness of the imagery.

 

sorry about the constant camera re-focus - this is a new-to-me camera and I
wasn't aware that it made robot noises and jumped at every slight movement.
I have turned it off for all future videos...
