From The Heart Stamps October Blog Hop!

Welcome to our From the Heart Stamps blog hop. This month we are meeting the new design team members and showcasing our favorite images and techniques.

As you hop along, please leave a comment on each blog. One random commenter will be selected on each blog to win an image of choice from the FTHS store.  Additionally, we will have a game with prizes on the FTHS blog!

If you have arrived from Kathy Curry’s website, you are in the right place, if not why don’t you start on the From the Heart Stamps blog, so you don’t miss anything.

Here is my project, using “Candy Run.”  For those of you who know me, fall is my favorite time of the year and this devious little mousey had me at “free candy.”  The technique that I find I can’t live without is Copic Coloring.  I also created a shaker card using a My Favorite Things frame die!

Now head over to Kelly Schelske’s and see what she has created.

Get to know the Designers:

What is your favorite coloring technique?

Tips:

What is your best tip for taking good photos of your cards?

I use a Cowboy Photo Tent & Lights. It really helps focus the light and gives a great picture. You can find it fairly inexpensively at amazon: http://www.amazon.com/CowboyStudio-24in-Photo-Soft-Light/dp/B001TKEUNI/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1443040906&sr=8-9&keywords=cowboy+photoand http://www.amazon.com/CowboyStudio-Photography-Table-Studio-Lighting/dp/B002SOBPH8/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1443040906&sr=8-6&keywords=cowboy+photo

What is your best coloring tip?

Take Classes. I loved taking Copic Classes. I started with Basic & Advanced Copic certification and have enjoyed Online Card Classes Copic course and the Kit & Clowder classes that you can find on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/kitandclowder/

Thanks for hopping with us today. The hop will end on Monday October 5th at 6 am EST. Winners will be posted on the From the Heart Stamps Blog on Wednesday October 7th.
