Hello everyone! I am so happy to be part of YNS as a Guest Designer. My name is Kim Taylor and I live in Southern Ontario Canada with my fabulous hubby and our menagerie of cats & dogs. We have 5 children between us, though they are all grown up and being adults…shocking how fast that happens. I’ve been a scrapbooker since 1998 and teaching scrapbooking classes since 2000. I’ve dabbled in card making over the years but in 2019 I found myself with the card making / stamping / try all the things bug and haven’t looked back since! I fully blame YouTube and our favourite crafty personalities on there for enabling my love of this wonderful hobby. I’m ‘a try all the things’ card maker and love to challenge myself to try new things. For example, 3 years ago there was no way I saw myself colouring with alcohol markers!! I like to say scrapbooking is what I do with my photos but card making is my artistic expression. The best advice that I’ve taken to heart is, ‘it’s just paper’ and if it didn’t work try again. I hope you find inspiration in my creations and I’m very excited to share them with you all!
For this A2 card I ink blended a panel of 100lb hammermill using the YNS Bubbles stencil SYNS018 in a soft peach colour. I layered that over some fun patterned paper from my stash to pull all the colours together. The images are coloured with Ohuhu alcohol markers and are from the Spring Smiles stamp and Die set CYNS782. The sentiment is also from the same set trimmed to a 2″ x 2″ square and outlined with a gold metallic pen. The sentiment and watering can are popped up with the YNS pop dots. And of course the finishing touches are Coral Reef Sparkly Gumdrops.

Happy Stamping!
