Memories

Good Morning Crafty friends!!

 

WOW, not sure what happen with our weather here in Kentucky, but it is down right chilly!!

Our tempatures dropped 20 degrees in a matter of a day, and I actually had to get the long pants and hoodie out!! But it is beautiful, clear, crisp and a slight breeze!!

 

Today I have a card using a beautiful stamp from Stamp N Plus to share

 

Isn't this a Gorgeous stamp? I fell in love with it, the moment I seen it and was so happy when LuAnn sent it over to me!! It is a fairly large stamp (1 3/4 x 5 1/2) and inks up just beautifully!

You can find this beautiful stamp here in the store

Farm F2288

I used Copic Markers to color and then added the clouds to enchance the stamp image.

Papers are by Bo-Bunny and First Addition

Sentiment is computer generated, this makes me think "Memories"

and thought it would be a great "Thinking of You" cards.

 

Well that's hit from me today, lots of things on my messy desk that

I will be sharing through out the week!

 

Have a great day and weekend, Be safe and stay warm!

 

Hugs & Blessings

 

Back to School Challenge at Stamp N Plus

There's a new challenge today over on the Stamp N Plus stamp blog!

 

This month's challenge  theme is "Back to School"

 

 

I kinda of improvised since I didn't have a typical school stamp

So instead I colored up Puparazzo "Lucky Dog" since he looked like he was really

happy and ready for the first day of school!

I had this digital sentiment and thought it would go perfectly for a pup so excited for the first day of Big puppy school. LOL!

win either a $25 GC or $10 GC to the Stamp N Plus store!

Lucky Dog from Stamp N Plus

Hello and a Very Happy Saturday to everyone!!!


I am feeling a little bit on the old side this morning 
as my oldest hits the big 40 today!!
Oh my how the years do fly by, I can remember 
this day back in 1972 as if it was just yesterday!!!

Sharing one of the adorable stamps from the

Puparazzo Pup collection  at Stamp N Plus Store

This little cutie is Lucky Dog FPP 66, love his sweet smile!

I paired him up with some Stampin Up designer paper and then some 

doggie print paper I found in my favorite scrap basket.

Stamp N Plus Pat-a-Cake

Hi, hope everyone is having a fabulous Saturday!!!

 I am sharing a card using one of Stamp N Plus adorable stamps from the baby collection! 

For my card I used the sweet Pat-A-Cake X1694 stamp.

I created my quilt backing by cutting 1 1/4 squares out of scrap paper then 

adhered to a piece of 3.5 x 5 card stock then ran it through my Big Shot using the SU Top Note die 

I embossed the background using a Sizzix embossing folder then layered onto a deeper 

pink then onto my light pink base. 

Pat-A-Cake is colored using Copic then layered onto a scalloped oval!

Our  July monthly challenge is "Anything Goes" and we would love for you 

to join us this month for a chance to win either a $25 or $10 gift certificate!

You can find all the challenge details here 

Have a great weekend, do what you love to do 

Be Creative!

Gift Card Set with Mini Pizza Box

I have a fun project to share today featuring  a yummy stamp called Blueberry Pie Slice from

 Stamp N Plus stamps (you can find it in the Kitchen Craft section)

I created a Mini Pizza box to hold some 3.5 x 3.5 cards 

for a cute gift card box.

Using my SCOR-PAL (inches) board and tool I created a mini pizza box 

by scoring a 6 x11 piece of DCWV card stock from the Le Tres Chic line

at 1 inches on all four sides, cutting along the top, bottom and middle to create my side tabs, I then folded into my box, adhering my side tabs.

The mini Pizza Box was then decorated using paper from DCWV Chateau Lavender stack. Spellbinders Lacy Square dies, a scalloped circle die to mat my stamped image of Stamp N Plus Blueberry Pie Slice.

Here you can see the mini pizza box holds 6 cards and 6 envelopes

(4 x 4 envelopes were made from yellow card stock)

Each card was created to match the mini pizza box using the a smaller 

Lacy square die, along with the stamped image matted onto a scalloped circle

Image was colored with Copic YR30, Y21, BG 70, B000, B02, E23,E25 and then highlighted with BG10

I then covered the white topping with STAMP N PLUS fine clear glitter and added a touch of 

Stickles Star Dust to the Frosting Crowns for added bling

Be sure to stop by Stamp N Plus blog each day for inspiration from the design team

Hope You Are Back on Your Paws Soon!

Hello Crafty Friends - It's a beautiful Saturday here in Northern Kentucky!!

We had beautiful weather for our yearly Relay for Life 

last night!! Each year my heart swells with pride seeing my daughter join the ever so many survivors as they kick off the ceremony walking the first lap!!

Luminary in  honor of her 5 1/2 years as a survivor  made by her sister 

My share today is a card I created for post on Stamp N Plus blog!! Each day  a member of the design team shares inspiration  using Stamp N Plus stamps that you can find in the store !!

I fell in love with all of the cute Puparazzo Pup collection, and couldn't resist this sweet little guy with his adorable sentiment! 

Doesn't he just melt you heart? This is Puparazzo Pup F-PP68 with sentiment 

D-PP 69. Such a sweet stamp to brighten someone's day when they aren't feeling 

their best!

I inked up my stamp with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and then colored him with Copic markers.

My design papers are from two Basic Grey 6x6 paper packs. Once colored I used Spellbinder Nestabilities circle and scallop circle dies then layer on to my card background.

Added some gross grained ribbon, button, twine and black pearls using a Viva Decor pearl pen.

Thanks for visiting and have a great weekend!
