Craft Stamper November Challenge ~ Take a Stamp


Hello Friends

Welcome to the new November Craft Stamper challenge.  This month our theme is Take a Stamp. So as long as you use a stamp on your project anything goes. This is what I came up with for this challenge. I am hanging on to the Autumn theme as long as I can. Even though the trees around me are becoming pretty bare and winter is approaching. I made this card with this lovely Tree Poem stamp from Stampendous. I fell in love with this stamp as soon as I saw it. I love trees and I have a huge one in my back yard.

  I used my Brusho  paints to colour this tree.  I really love the way that they blend so well together.  I also used some patterned vellum and a real dried leaf and layered them all together.  I went around the edge of my card with some distress ink and then finished it off with some twine.

 We have another great prize up for grabs this month from our lovely sponsor Magenta.


They are giving away some lovely masks and stencils as part of the prize package. These include large pic  Poinsetta Rectangle MC15, top row left to right:  Mini Poinsetta TM125, Christmas Ornaments TM135, Mistletoe Wreath MC14, bottom row left to right  Poinsetta MC13,  Mini Holly TM124 & Stylized Holly TM127.

Friends with Flair @ Unity

Here is my Unity Friends with Flair entry.  I used my Feel the Joy stamp and used the generation stamping technique with memento ink. I then sponged the background in purple and deep pink pigment ink.  I mounted it on to white card and added the Happy Birthday sentiment at the bottom. It looked too plain so I added teeny weeny little butterflies from the butterfly punch from Martha Stewart.  P.S I ran out of daubers and all I could find was a magic eraser it did the trick as a makeshift sponge :)                                        If you want to take part hop along to Unity and enter  here I just had to make another card I just love this stamp I wish I had gotten it sooner it is so versatile. I think it may be my new favourite Unity Stamp :)                                                                           Thanks for visiting :)

Love You - Hot Pink

Happy Friday Friends :) I hope you all had a good week. Here is the card I made for this weeks friends with flair today.  I used two stamps on this card. The hearts are from the  You are my Main Squeeze stamp set. The sentiment is from the Strength & Dignity KOM 11/13 .  The vibrant pink colour is Picked Raspberry distress ink that I sponged all over the card. I embossed the hearts with white embossing powder. I really like he effect it created it looks almost like chalk.  Have a great weekend :)

Craft Stamper May Challenge

Hello Friends! I hope everyone is doing ok during this crazy time.  I just wanted to remind you that we are still running the Craft Stamper Challenges.  The May challenge is well underway but you still have time to come and join in.  Here is my card I made for this month's project.  I made this clean and simple floral card with Unity stamps.  I used two different kits to create this card. The jar with the flowers is from the  Strength & Wisdom  stamp set and the sentiment is from the kit called  His Words .  I kept my card really clean and just used my watercolors to colour the flowers and jar then tied a little twine around it to finish it off. If you have the time come and play along with us this month.  You can use any stamps you wish on your project.  Here is the prize we have on offer this month this fab Eileen Hull die.  All of the details of the challenge can be found on the  Craft Stamper Blog . Hope to see your project
