Be sure to comment on all the stops on the hop to be eligible for one of 5 VALENTINES GIFT PACKS and 1 $50  Scrap N' Stamp Gift Certificate. 

 PLUS there's a challenge over at the SCRAP N' STAMP FB Group- the theme is LOVE IS IN THE AIR...come join in the fun! ;o)

Here's my card for this hop:

I used the MFT- Tweet Friends stamp set along with MFT- Wonky Stitched Rectangle dies and Lawn Fawn's Scalloped Rectangle Frames.

I started with a piece of Bristol Smooth paper and blended Distress Oxides in Spun Sugar, Picked Raspberry and Seedless Preserves to create my background; I added some water droplets for more texture. I then used the  MFT- Wonky Stitched Rectangle die to cut the panel. To create my hill, I used Lawn Fawn Stiched Hillside Borders cut from MME "Record It" paper pad and inked it up with Mowed Lawn Distress Ink. A Mushroom die cut from Quick Kutz blended the edges with Antique Linen and Vintage Photo Distress Oxides finished off my little scene.

 

I stamped 2 of the bird images from the MFT- Tweet Friends stamp set  in Versafine Black Onyx Ink onto Bristol Smooth paper and colored up the images with my Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. I added some white Gel Pen for highlights and fussy cut them out. I stamped the song notes and sentiment from the set using Black Onyx Versafine ink and die cut the sentiment using the MFT- Slanted Sentiment Strip Die. Voila! One TWEET Card..lol.

Here's the inside of my card using another image and sentiment from the set:

I sure hope I've inspired you to get crafty and play along with our LOVE IS IN THE AIR challenge this month!

SCRAP N' STAMP~ All That Sparkles Blog Hop

Happy Friday crafty friends! Today, we have a fun little blog hop 

Be sure to comment on all the stops on the hop to be eligible for one of 6 SPARKLY GIFT PACKS and 1 $25  Scrap N' Stamp Gift Certificate. 

 PLUS there's a challenge over at the SCRAP N' STAMP FB Group- the theme is ALL THAT SPARKLES...so get out your glitter, shimmer ...anything that sparkles!! 

So here's the card I made using a Spellbinder's Snowflakes Die as a stencil, Nuvo Glimmer Paste and Distress Oxides. 

I started with Smooth Bristol Paper and applied Spun Sugar, Worn Lipstick and Picked Raspberry Distress Oxides. I love this color combo for an ombre effect! I used one of the curved MFT- Basic Edge dies on the lower half.

 I then die cut a Spellbinder's snowflake die onto cardstock and used it as a stencil with Moonstone Nuvo Glimmer Paste to create that sparkly effect, I masked off the center before I applied the past so I could add my sentiment. I used "MERRY" from  the Concord & 9th Christmas Cottage set and stamped it onto the center of the snowflake with Versafine Crimson Red ink.  I then die cut the "Christmas" Sentiment from Silver glitter paper using the Birch Press Christmas Sugar Script Die. I also die cut it out from White CS several times and layered them all together to give it more dimension.  I then adhered the 2 panels onto my card base with fun foam and added a strip of the silver Glitter paper in between the 2 layers. 

For the inside of my card, I used the same Distress Inks from my card front with TH Mini Weathered Winter Snowflakes stamps. A sentiment from an older Cornish Heritage Farm stamp set. 

I hope I've inspired you to get crafty and play along with our ALL THAT SPARKLES challenge this month!

SCRAP N' STAMP~ November Blog Hop and MOvember Challenge

Happy Friday crafty friends! Today, we have a fun little blog hop for 

Be sure to comment on all the stops on the hop to be eligible for one of three Impression Obsession Retro Masculine Die sets!!! PLUS Scrap N' Stamp will also be donating 10% of net sales today (Hop Day) to the Movember foundation- so be sure to check out the main Blog Hop Post for more information on this great cause!

 AND there's a new challenge starting over at the SCRAP N' STAMP FB Group- the theme is to create a MOvember card which features mustaches or a masculine theme! The prize for the challenge this month is a $50 Gift Card for the SCRAP N' STAMP STORE!! Woot Woot!

So here's the card I made using the Impression Obsession Retro Masculine Die  and the Tim Holtz Hipster Cat.

For my background I die cut all the mustaches in the Impression Obsession Retro Masculine Die  set from Kraft and black cardstock that had Stick It on the back. I found it easier to keep them all together, the way they came in the package, to run them thru my Big Shot, instead of handling the smaller dies. I ran them thru about 5 times each. With the Stick it, this allowed me to adhere them to my card panel easily, as I just had to remove the backing paper. 

I then stamped the Hipster Cat onto White Cardstock with Memento Black Ink and colored him with Copics. I then fussy cut him out as I do not have the coordinating die. I die cut two circles using my Stax Cirles from Black and Kraft cardstock and then stamped the Hipster Cat onto the Kraft circle to get all the details I may have lost when I fussy cut him out. I then adhered my Hipster Cat onto my circle piece. I stacked 3 of the mustaches I had die cut from black cardstock together to get some definition- this was quite easy as the pieces still had the Stick It on the back. I then used one of the hats in the die set to give him a sharp hat to go with his retro hipster look. lol. I added  some white gelly roll highlights and added some Nuvo Crystal Glaze to his glasses. A Small Talk Sentiment finished off my cat. I then adhered the circles to my card with foam tape. 

For the inside, I kept with the same relative design that I used on the cardfront but used a Tim Holtz Random Thoughts sentiment and another stach and glasses from the die set. ;o)

I hope I've inspired you to get crafty and play along with our MOvember -stache and/or masculine challenge this month- don't forget there is a $50 gift certificate up for grabs for one Randomly chosen participant in the challenge!

 Also, be sure to hop along ALL the blop stops and COMMENT to be eligible to win one of the 3 Impression Obsession Retro Masculine Die sets!

For the monsters I blended Carved Pumpkin and Wilted Violet Distress Oxides onto Bristol Smooth Paper. I the splattered some water and once dry, some white and black splatters. I then die cut the sheets with the Silly Monsters Dies. 

I embossed some American Crafts Foil paper in Silver with a Tim Holtz Alterations die, which is similar to the 3D Foundry Embossing Folder. I added some Meadow and Black Alcohol Inks to grunge it up, because come on, they are MONSTERS...lol  I cut a slit for my one monster to peek thru and a sentiment from TH Halloween Script cut from bristol paper with Peeled Paint Distress Oxide finished off the front of my card. 

For the inside of my card, I blended Peeled Paint and Black Soot Distress Oxides and used another sentiment from the Halloween Script set along with another monster. This guy, Norm, cause he looks like a Norm, is my favorite with that look on his face..hehehehe

SCRAMP N' STAMP~ Autumn Leaves Blog Hop

Hello Crafty Friends, it's time for 

There's 3 $25 Gift Certificates to give away...to be eligible hop along all the Designer blogs and comment to win. 

Also, this weekend we have a $20 coupon for orders over $100 - Use the code "LOVEFALL20" at checkout. 

Here's my Autumn Leaves inspired lil' makes:

I used the new Lawn Fawn THANKS A LATTE set and Tim Holtz Funky Florals #3 Die Set for both tags- I just used them differently. ;o)

First, I used the smaller Mug from the set and stamped it onto Prima Vintage Emporium paper and fussy cut as I don't have the coordinating dies- I then inked the edges with Vintage Photo Distress Oxide. I then die cut florals and leaves from the Funky floral sets in oranges, reds and browns. I cut a slit inside my mug lip to create my Autumn Bouquet.  

I then used the stamp from the set for the insde of the mug upside down to create my shadow using Archival Ink in Potting Soil. The sentiment "You matter to me" is from Concord and 9th's Hugs set, also in Coffee Ink. The "LOVE YA" is from the Thanks a Latte Set in Carnation Red Archival Ink. I used Bazzil Cardstock with some Fired Brick Distress Oxide for my tag base. A little white Dylusions Paint Pen to add highlights finished off my tag with some crinkle ribbon. 

For the second tag, I used the same Bazzil Cardstock for my base, but this time, covered the larger tag with the same Vintage Emporium Paper from Prima. I stamped the second mug from the set using the same steps as above but added the Coffee Swirl Stamp inside my mug. I then stamped the Leaf from the set and fussy cut it out and adhered it to my mug to cover the heart so it would tie into the Autumn theme. 

I added the leaves from the Funky Florals #3 set behind my mug and adhered the mug to my tag with 3D foam Tape. I then added Tonic Crystal Glaze to my Mug to create added dimension and it looks like liquid. ;o)  My sentiment is a combo of the "FALL" from the set and "Happy" using the TH Shadow Scripts  #2 set. A little wood button from my stash finished off my tag. 

I sure hope you had fun, and I've inspired you to use your stamp sets differently. Now you are onto Karen's Blog for her fantastic make.
