Blue Ribbon Birthday

I was going for a masculine and fairly simple birthday card with this one - I say fairly since I cut out the blue ribbon...  Midnight Muse will be missed when it retires, I paired it with Crumb Cake for this one and I really like the two colors together.

 



 

Supplies:

Blue Ribbon

Tape It

Off the Grid

Midnight Muse, Crumb Cake ink

Midnight Muse, Crumb Cake and Whisper White card stock

More undefined

 

Maybe I need to carve a different stamp to share with you, I seem to be using this musical note quite a bit!  My sentiment on this one comes from a brush stamp set in My Digital Studio called You are So Nice.

 

I added a couple images from Tape It along with the undefined carved note and made it a fairly clean and simple card (at least clean and simple for me, LOL!).

 

Supplies:

Undefined stamp carving kit

Tape it

You are so Nice stamp brush set

MDS

Coastal Cabana, Whisper White card stock

Coastal Cabana, Early Espresso and Wisteria Wonder ink

 

Can't thank you enough

I decided to pull out my Illuminate Glimmer Watermark Stampin' Pad and a sponge dauber for this card.  I used them on the background and the pictures don't really do the technique justice.

 

Next, I added some stamped images from Tape it, some baker's twine and a sentiment from Chalk Talk.

 

Supplies:

Chalk Talk, Tape It stamp sets

Illuminate Glimmer Watermark Stamp Pad

Old Olive, Rich Razzleberry, Tempting Turquoise, Island Indigo classic ink

Whisper White and Rich Razzleberry card stock

July Stamp Club projects

I went with some Birthday Basics dsp for this month's layout and paired it with the Perfect Pennants die and some Deco labels framelits.

 



 

On this card, we used the Tape it, Mosaic Madness and Sketched Birthday stamp set along with a few punches.

 

And finally, the Modern Mosaic folder, Mosaic Madness and Really Good Greetings stamp sets on this card.

 

We have so much fun!  Want to join us?  Just e-mail me here and ask about my Stamp Clubs.

June Stamp Camp Projects

Lisa and I were finally able to hold a Stamp Camp at the end of June, my schedule was the hold up given the wet and drawn out planting season.

 

These are the fun projects we created using some new catalog items that we love.

 

 

This fun pouch uses the Gingham Garden dsp and Chalk Talk stamp set and framelits.  It is made from a piece of 12 x 12 dsp and used the measurements from this video.

 

I CASED this idea from our Stampin' Success magazine using the Tape it stamp set and a couple of Paper Pumpkin stamps.

 

Lisa came up with this super cute card using the I Am Me dsp (love that set!).
