Using Stampin’ Blends with Country Home
I’m so glad the Country Home stamp set will carryover to the new Annual Catalog.
This is a card I made last fall using Stampin’ Blends to color. It’s the milk can image paired with the cotton plants that I used for this card. It has the same tall focal image, but this time I used a horizontal band to balance the card design.
First, lets talk about coloring with Stampin’ Blends. These are dual tipped alcohol markers (one is a thin tip and the other a brush tip).

Country Home: vintage style that’s on trend
The Country Home stamp set is one of my favorites from the Holiday catalog. It’s not exactly vintage and its not exactly rustic, but it is definitely on trend. It seems that every store I go into these days has milk cans and cotton plants!
I’ve made lots of cards with this set and this is one of my favorites.
With a tall image like this you can change up a basic layout with a simple square mat that doesn’t frame the focal image. For this card I used the coordinating Country Lane Designer Series Paper. I also used the DSP to inspire the colors in my foliage. For the milk can, I stayed on trend and kept it traditional with the smoky slate gray.
