Riley Blog Hop and Release!

Hello and welcome to the Riley and Company Blog Hop and Release! There's 12 great new Riley/Sophie stamps this month, you're going to love them!

Each Designer will be giving away a Riley stamp to one lucky commenter, so make sure to leave some love along the way!

All New Stamps are available for purchase now at Riley and Company!

Above is the new Yoga Riley! I coloured the image with copics. Since this is the tree pose, I used this dp I thought was perfect from DCWV Far East stack!

I also used this months sketch at SFYTT

Recipe
Stamp: Yoga Riley
Paper: river rock, very vanilla, handsome hunter, riding hood red, DCWV Far East stack
Ink: black, river rock
Accessories: copics, circle nesties, circle punch, MS branch edge punch, weaving blocks EF, charm, ribbon, twine, dimensionals


And this is the fabulous new Reading Riley. We have a lot of readers in our house, so this will come in handy. This is a gift card holder, perfect for a Chapters gift card or whatever your favorite book store is!

Riley, the table and lamp are all coloured with copics. The chair is dp. The sentiment is from the Everyday Sayings set.

To make this gift card holder, start with a piece of cardstock 4.25" x 10.75". Score at 3" and 8".



Here's a peek at the inside.
