Craft Stamper TIMI Reminder October



Hello Friends

I am back today with a wee reminder of our Craft Stamper challenge this month.  This is Take a Technique month where you have to use one or more of the following  in your project along with stamping. This is from the strapline from the Craft Stamper magazine.

 Ink Stitch Paint Collage Print Paper

I made this card for my project today which incorporates ink, stitch, paint and paper.  I went with everything I love about Autumn. The leaves are just beginning to give us some colour here in Maine.  It is really pretty. I love Autumn, I used the same stamp as my last project called Maple Girl. The Girl is another stamp called Dream of Being. I started off by painting in some sky on a white card base then made a border with the leaves around the edge.  Next I stamped and painted the girl with my watercolours then cut her out.  Finally I typed us some words cut them out and inked them around the edges and glued it all down. 

There are some great prizes to be won this month from Calico Craft Parts. Hop on back to the Craft Stamper blog for all of the details. 

Thanks for stopping by my blog today!

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 November Challenge

Hey Friends Welcome to a new  Craft Stamper  challenge for November. Can you believe we are almost at the end of the year already!!  Where did time go?? It has been pretty cold and frosty up here in Scotland for the last few nights.   But I am hanging on to Autumn as long as I can. I took a wee walk around the park and collected some lovely Autumn leaves.  I wanted to incorporate them into my project today.  I put the leaves in some paper and put them inside a heavy book overnight to press them down.  I started off with a white card base and used this sentiment stamp from Unity and repeat stamped all down the side of my card using Potting Soil Archival Ink. Then I went around the edges with Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide Ink.  Next I took my leaves and my paper punches and punched a heart shape out from the yellow leaf and then stuck it to my card with fabric glue.  Then I punched some hearts from the red leaves and put one inside t
