April Showers

Supplies: Stamps: Stampendous Ink: Memento tuxedo black Paper: Gina K heavy base weight white Accessories: Copic markers, Doodlebug twine, My Favorite Things stitched arch stax

Hello Stampers!  Today's clean and simple challenge on Splitcoaststampers is the theme "April Showers."  I thought of this cute image when I read the theme.  To make the card I diecut the arch die, placed it on the card base where I thought it looked good, then I gently traced the inside of the arch.  Next I used my stamp a ma jig to stamp my focal image onto the card base.  I colored in the image, added some twine to the focal panel, and then adhered the focal panel to the card base with some dimensionals.

That's all for now, thanks for stopping by!!

Happy Easter!

Supplies: Stamps: Inkadinkado Paper: Gina K heavy and light weight white and SU melon mambo Ink: Memento tuxedo black Accessories: SU stitched square die, SU ribbon, Copic markers, Simon Says Stamp detail ringlet plate
Hello Stampers!  Today is the Featured Stamper challenge on Splitcoaststampers.  The Featured Stamper is Heather.  Here is the card that I CASED:


To make my card I stamped, colored, and die cut my focal image.  Then I added the ribbon treatment and added a melon mambo mat.  For the background I used a piercing plate instead of an embossing folder, so I couldn't stamp a sentiment on mine.  

That's all for now!  Thanks for stopping by!!

Ho! Ho! Ho!

Supplies: Stamps: Essentials by Ellen Holiday Characters and SU Good GreetingsPaper: Gina K heavy base weight white and kraft Ink: Memento tuxedo black Accessories: Essentials by Ellen Alpine Snowfall and Holiday Characters dies, SU linen thread, Copic markers, pom pom

Hello Stampers!  It's been a tiring week as I went back to school after Spring Break.  Needless to say I was too tired to make cards after school.  I cannot wait until summer, the countdown is on!!

Today is the Featured Stamper challenge on Splitcoaststampers.  The Featured Stamper is Mary Ellen.  And here is the card that I CASED.

For my card I used kraft paper instead of light blue behind my Santa.  And instead of adding a tree I used snowflakes in my circle.  I kept the same sentiment flag, and added some linen thread at the top of the card to tie it altogether.  I'm happy to add another Christmas card to my stash! :)

That's all for now, thanks for stopping by!

Sunflower Birthday Wishes

Supplies: Stamps:  Gina K Ink: Memento tuxedo black Paper: Gina K heavy base weight white and black onyx Accessories: linen thread, Copic markers, and Spellbinders rectangle nestabilities

Hello Stampers and Happy Easter!!  I am at the tail end of my Spring Break, it was wonderful having some time off.  Especially the last couple of days have been in the upper 60's!!  So I was able to get some Spring cleaning done in the shed and the garage, and even cleaned out all of the salt from my car.  So it better not snow any more!!  

Today is the Featured Stamper challenge on Splitcoaststampers.  This week's featured stamper is Cara.  I selected the following card as inspiration for my card:

To make the card I started by die cutting the rectangle out of white paper.  Then I used my stamp-a-ma-jig to stamp my sunflower image and the sentiment.  Next I colored the focal image with Copic markers.  For the ribbon treatment I decided to place it in the corner since my sunflowers didn't have as long of a stem as Cara's did.  I matted the focal image onto black like Cara, and then adhered that to my card base to finish the card.

I hope you all have a wonderful Easter!!  

Thanks for stopping by!
