Welcome to the Stampin’ Fairly Friends’ Weblog Hop!
This month, the theme is Summer time Trip. We hope to encourage you with our creations in the present day! You will see that the lineup on the finish of my submit that will help you “hop” alongside from Pal to Pal.
I like this theme! Even for those who don’t have plans for one, or haven’t had one shortly, I guess you possibly can recall a terrific trip. Once I was a younger lady summers will full of mini-vacations. They have been principally tenting, fishing, water-skiing and the like. From time to time I’d 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 I used to be eight or 9 years outdated. 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 by 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 in the present day.
Once I noticed the Best Journey Cling Stamp Set, I fell in love. Childhood recollections got here got here again like a locomotive roaring by a canyon.

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

The practice is stamped in Blackberry Bliss then fussy minimize and popped up on the white background. It’s stamped once more in Fundamental 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 Fundamental White. It’s then matted with Boho Blue. A couple of Smokey Slate and Fundamental Gray pearls have been positioned and apart from the within, the cardboard is completed.
