Summer time Trip with Friends | Wild West paper Arts

Welcome to the Stampin’ Fairly Friends’ Weblog Hop!

This month, the theme is Summer time Trip. We hope to encourage you with our creations right this moment! You will see that the lineup on the finish of my submit that can assist you “hop” alongside from Pal to Pal.

I like this theme!  Even should you don’t have plans for one, or haven’t had one shortly, I guess you may recall an incredible trip. After I was a younger lady summers will full of mini-vacations.  They had been principally tenting, fishing, water-skiing and the like.  Once in a while I might spend a summer time trip with grandparents.  

One summer time, I used to be capable of journey the desert southwest with maternal grandparents.  I used to be eight or 9 years previous.  I’ll always remember stopping in Durango, Colorado the place we caught the Silverton Steam Practice on the Durango-Silverton Slim Gauge Railroad. This practice took us via the attractive San Juan Mountains (within the Rockys) to the historic mining city of Silverton, Colorado. Now that I’m extra seasoned, I’d like to take that journey once more. You’ll discover photos of this historic practice towards the top of my submit. That brings me again to my venture right this moment.

After I noticed the Biggest Journey Cling Stamp Set, I fell in love. Childhood reminiscences got here got here again like a locomotive roaring via a canyon.

I paired the stamp set with “Considerate Journey” Designer Collection Paper (DSP) to create a scene.

The practice is stamped in Blackberry Bliss then fussy reduce and popped up on the white background.  It’s stamped once more in Primary Gray to chop away the steam for dimension.

The phrase Journey (a part of a phrase) was inked with Tuxedo Black by masking off the phrases I didn’t need, then stamped on Primary White.  It’s then matted with Boho Blue. A number of Smokey Slate and Primary Gray pearls had been positioned and apart from the within, the cardboard is completed.
