Sister Stamps Chinese Zodiac Collection - Dragon

Happy Monday! This is the final image from the Sister Stamps Chinese Zodiac Collection! Can't believe it's almost been a year - the time sure is flying by as I get older. As promised, here is the ATC holder I made for all the AT cards I've made with the past Zodiac signs. I made it with the wonderful WRMK Envelope Punch Board.


You'll have a better look at the holder if you watch my video, linked below.  It's a simple project, but I'm really happy with the way it turned out. Thanks for stopping by today and be sure to check out the other projects from the Sister Stamps blog, and from these talented ladies - Patti, Eunice, and Laura. Again, Jenny will be giving away this stamp to one lucky viewer of my YouTube Video!  Be sure to check it out here and leave a comment on my video.  Hopefully I'll have the winners video up by Wednesday, October 2nd.  Good luck to all and until next time, happy crafting and take care!

Sister Stamps Chinese Zodiac Collection - Rabbit

I can't believe this is the second to the last image for the entire Chinese Zodiac Collection!  Well, here we go ... here is another ATC card I made for Jenny.  I'm actually missing two ATCs, since I didn't do the last Zodiac release.  I'll be sure to post those when I'm done.   This cutie is the Year of the Rabbit image.  Isn't she a cutie? 


I had to take this picture to show that I actually cut out her whiskers.  I'm definitely not hating cutting as much as I used to.  *wink*  Thanks for stopping by today and be sure to check out the projects from the Sister Stamps blog, and from these wonderful ladies - Patti, Eunice, and Laura.

As always, Jenny will be giving away this stamp to one lucky viewer of my YouTube Video!  Be sure to check it out here and leave a comment on my video!  If you don't win, you can purchase this stamp starting on October 1st.  I'll see you tomorrow with the last Chinese Zodiac image, and the ATC holder that I decided to make to hold all the ATCs!

Just A Few Designs, Release #2 - Devlyn

Happy Saturday everyone!  I'm sure glad it's the weekend, aren't you?  If you're hopping along with us today, you should've come here from Suzie's blog.  If not, be sure to start at Elsa's blog here.  Today I'm sharing another stamp from Elsa's Just A Few Designs Release #2, and her name is DEVLYN!  She is another sexy mama, don't you think?  I'm really happy with the way my card turned out.  It's a very simple layout.  The base is a black 4x6 card, layered with orange card stock and polka dotted designer paper.  The next layer is a piece of black card stock which I punched with the MS broken fence punch.  To that layer, I added some twine and a Pink Paislee Halloween flair.  Devlyn was stamped, colored with Copics, cut out and popped up on the card.  Finally, I added two glitter sticker bats on the right corner of the card.

I had a lot of fun making this card too.  Feel free to check out my YouTube video here for some rambling and more shots of this card.  Thanks for stopping by today and be sure to continue the hop by going to Michelle's blog here.  Until next time, happy crafting and take care.

Just A Few Designs, Release #2 - Venom

Hey everyone!  Welcome to Just A Few Designs Release #2 blog hop!  This month, Elsa is showcasing her Halloween stamps!  You should've come here from Suzie's blog, but in case you didn't, be sure to start at Elsa's blog here.  Anyhoo, I don't normally do anything for Halloween since my son is all grown up now.  However, I loved making this card using "VENOM"!  She is part of the Halloween stamp release and she is quite the vixen!  My card is 5x7 and is layered with black and orange cardstock, and the patterned paper came in my DT package from Elsa. That paper was perfect to use on this card, right? After stamping Venom, I colored her with my Copics, cut her out and popped her up with some pop dots. I added a strip of spiders at the top and a strip of mice on the bottom, both were punched using MS border punches. The BOO sentiment was also in my DT package.  Finally, I added the flying ghost and the purple hat buttons to finish off the card.

Be sure to come back next week to see another fabulous image from Elsa's Just A Few Designs Release #2! Until then, take care.
