Happy 5th Birthday, Joy Clair!...Hop, hop, hop!


Hello there Joy Clair friends!  Today I'm joining my fellow Joy Clair designers (old and new) as we celebrate Joy Clair's 5th Birthday!  Hop along to take a walk down memory lane and see some favorite stamp sets as well as get inspired with the brand new designs launching today!  If you've arrived here from Shanna Slater's blog, you're on the right track.  If not, you can check out the complete blogroll at the bottom of my post.

The be considered, just leave a comment in ALL participant blogs.  You have from August 30 at 9:00 AM until the Monday, September 02, 2019 at 11:59 pm. ET.   Each winner will receive a $25 gift card to be used on Joy Clair Store.

Today, I'm featuring two NEW stamp sets and an older set that is one of my well loved favorites!  Hope you enjoy!  

My first card features the new stamp set called Fall Family Football.  It's a fun set perfect for the football season!  I paired the images up to create a fun little collage and stamped the goal post onto some "turf" colored cardstock.  To finish off the fun "gridiron" look, I splattered the page with some black acrylic paint and then added some dirty prints with my cloth wrapped finger dipped in black ink.   

I snipped the Go Team! Sentiment into two pieces so I could add the GO to the pennant and the TEAM to the play panel.  
 Deelish prints.  I love the scruffy look of this card!

My second card features the new HOPE stamp set.  I love the gloves and the fun designs on this set and can't wait to see all the inspiration with this set.  The recipient is surely going to smile!

I added a little black acrylic paint in varying consistencies with the splattering effect.  I also kept this card super simple and CAS so that the focus goes directly to the image/sentiment on the card.
My third card features a fun little twist on the planner/bible journaling set called Lightbulb Moment.  I love the doodly aspect of this set and found the possibilities for this set are endless!  I reached waayyy back and designed some framed "portraits" that are just as fabulous as my Kindergartener's work.  I arranged them on the "frames" so that they could really set this card off.  

I embellished the design using some of the smaller stamps in this set.  I also incorporated some child -like handwriting here and there.  
 Just look at that yummy cake.  Pretty fancy 'eh?!
Of course, I couldn't finish the design without adding a little arrows to draw the eye right on into that beautiful kiddie coloring!  
Thanks for hopping over to my blog.  Please head over to Rema's blog to continue the hop!
