SCRAP 'N Stamp~ You Betcha!

Happy Friday Y'all! Super excited to share a couple makes for the

There are some crafty prizes along the way- $50 Gift Certificate to the Scrap N' Stamp Store and 7 Ephemera Packs...one for each stop on the hop! 

So happy hoppin'! :o)

We got to play with the Photo Play O' Canada products and omgeeeeee! They are so adorable!!

  

  

Cute EH? hehehehe

Up first is a card I made using the Stamp, die, Ephemera Pack with the Canadian Critters & Strong & Free papers.

I started with a piece of woodgrain DP from my stash and added circles I punched out from the Canadian Critters  paper using different sized circle punches.

I added some ephermera from the Ephemera Pack and created my little "Eh" banner. I added a Maple leaf I die cut using the Maple Leaf die and finished with some red twine.

I stamped the uber cute Beaver from the Stamp set onto Strathmore watercolor paper with Scattered Straw Distress Ink using my TH Platform. I then used Frayed Burlap, Vintage Photo & Walnut Stain Distress Inks to watercolor the image with a Waterbrush. I then die cut him out using the corresponding  die. I used the stamp again and stamped onto the  Strong & Free paper and fussy cut the vest out and adhered to my colored image. I finished him with some White Nuvo Drops.

And there we have the first card- ready for Canada Day! :)

Up next is the CAS Tag I made using the Maple Syrup & Strong & Free papers with  some of the Ephemera pieces.

I die cut a tag using STAMPlorations Stitched Tag die from  the Maple Syrup paper and then added a piece of the Strong & Free paper but using the red/white maple leafs side this time. The little patriotic Moose and Happy Canada Day Banner finished off my tag with a little button and twine from my stash.

Annabelle Is All Ready for Canada Day!
 
I did up this adorable image as a Birthday Celebration!

 I used Perfect Pearls with a Firework Stamp from my stash (sorry couldn't locate the Designer) to create a BG that went with the Sparklers in the image. 

CS is from American Crafts and used MFT's Die-namics Blueprints 3 to Die cut the image. Made it into a tag with an eyelet and American Crafts Twine. Created a Border with my Chameleon Pens Fine Liner Pen. Added a "Celebrate" Die Cut as a sentiment. 


I colored the image with SN Markers:

And here's the inside with the same design as the front and Sentiment from Mama Elephant's "Happy Everything" Set:
