STAMPlorations Spring Release - Day 1


Welcome to a week of STAMPlorations stamp releases!  As you can see from the banner, there's a bit of an animal theme!  We're starting the week with this gorgeous set from Deepti, Live Love Ride.


I found this distressed weatherboard panel in my stash, and I thought it would make a great fence for some horses to look over.


I stamped, masked and watercoloured the horse image, added the fence, trimmed the panel and mounted it onto copper-coloured card.

Fancy your chances at winning in our blog hop?  Here's how:

Commenting is open from 26 March until 2 April.
Comment on all the stamp release posts on the STAMPlorations blog and on the designers' blogs to qualify for the prizes -
ONE winner of a $25 gift certificate
ONE winner of the entire release (all five stamp sets)

The stamps are now available to buy in the STAMPlorations store at 10% discount (as are all stamps except retiring sets - no code needed).  Use my code STAMPGIRLSHIRLEY to get a further 20% off.

Pop on over to the STAMPlorations blog to see what the other girls have done, you'll love it!

See you tomorrow with one of my new sets.
