Scent-sational

Sniff…Sniff…..Can you smell what Melyssa has created for us this month?? 
It is SCENT-SATIONAL!!! Full of super cute sayings, and the most adorable skunks EVER, well, there really isn’t anything stinky about this set! Adorable AND punny…just how we like it!!

For my card today I went fifty shades of grey.  No, not THAT Fifty Shades of Grey!!  LOL  ;)
I chose a grey monochromatic palette by using Bazzill Card Shoppe, Licorice Twist for my card base and then matting the designer papers from Glitz (French Kiss) with Bazzill Card Shoppe, Rock Candy.
I used my favorite ribbon weaving technique with some Grey Mist Seam Binding and Black Crocheted Ribbon.  I stuck a Pewter Pearl and Rhinestone Pin into a sheer grey rolled ribbon flower and glued a bit of black tulle behind it.  The half pearls (originally Snow White) were colored with a C3 Copic marker.

Scent-sational is a 6x8 set that includes a total of 23 stamps and will sell for $24.00.

Would you like to win the new Scent-sational  stamp set? Here is what you need to do- visit the Trendsetter’s blogs that are participating in each of the blog hop challenges below and comment on their creations as you go. One of the Trendsetter’s blogs (from each hop day) will be randomly chosen as the ‘it’ blog and a winner will be picked using a random number generator from the comments left on that Trendsetter’s Blog Hop Challenge post.

You will not know which blog has been chosen so the more you comment on the better your chances are of winning new stamps! The Blog Hop Challenges will be open until 5 PM Eastern Time Saturday, June 30th with the winner being announced during the release party chat.
