Craft Stamper Inspiration


Hello Friends

Welcome back with a wee reminder of the Craft Stamper Challenge. Anything goes this month! So as long as there is stamping on your project you can make whatever you like. You still have plenty of time to make something if you want to join in. We have two prizes up for grabs. Our prize winner who will receive these lovely stencils and masks from our sponsor Magenta.


 Then there is our design winner chosen by the design team. The winner will be published in the magazine and featured on the blog. You can head back to the Craft Stamper Blog for all of the details.

  Also remember Magenta are very kindly offering a $5 flat rate shipping deal to all CS readers on all stencils and cling stamps! Simply use the code: Promo CSUK at checkout. This offer is available from 7th-30th November.

 Now on to my card that I made for today's inspiration. I made a wee snow scene on kraft card. I used this lovely wee moose stamp from Unity called Happy Kiss-Moose Everett. The trees are also from Unity from the Kit of the Month 12/14.  

I started off stamping the trees in black archival ink and then used a white gelly roll pen to colour them. Next I used some white acrylic paint to create the falling snow. When it was dry I stamped my moose and sentiment on top with archival ink. I then stamped the moose again separately and coloured and cut it out. I paper pieced him and used foam dots to to make him pop out a little. I love the way he turned out :)

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today.

Unity & Misti Blog Hop

Hello My lovelies :) Welcome to the Unity and Misti blog hop! I  hope you are enjoying seeing all of the projects so far. I just had my first wee play with the Misti tool the other day. It is a very new to me tool and wow do I LOVE it!! It is awesome! Just for the simplest of things like positioning a stamp.  One time is all you need with the Misti!! I am not one of those crafters that gets my stamped images crisp first time. I usually have wasted a card or two before I end up with a perfect image. This tool totally eliminates all of that.  Here is my very first card that I made with the Misti tool and Unity stamps.  I used a stamp called  Scattered Pieces . I LOVE this stamp and the sentiments that come with it.  I positioned the feather and the sentiment at the same time on the Misti.  I totally love that you can do that too!  It lets you stamp several at once instead of just eye b...

Happy Valentine's Day - Craft Stamper Inspiration

Hello my friends happy Valentine's Day!  I made this stamped jar for my inspiration project for the  Craft Stamper Challenge today.  This is my husband's old coffee jar that was heading to the recycling bin. I always like to save them and make something with them.  I gave it a couple of coats of white chalk paint and let it air dry. Next I stamped it with memento ink.  The stamp I used is from Unity called  Smooches and Stuff  by Phyllis Harris.  I just love all of her art work. I let that completely dry then used my alcohol markers to colour it.  While I was at the craft store I found this nice heart kraft ribbon in the Valentine section.  I tied it around the top to finish.  I love the way it turned out. I hope you have some time to come and join in this month's challenge with us.  As always we have wonderful prizes up for grabs.  All of the details ca...
