STAMPlorations~ Wanderlust Travel!

Hello Crafty Friends, there's a WANDERLUST Icons and Dies Inspiration post here...be sure to check out what the DT Gals made using the new Wanderlust Series!! Simply Amazing!!! Be sure to leave them some luv too! :o)

Today I'm showcasing two makes using the Airplane and Travel Suitcase,  and passport stamps..these are all the larger versions  from the  Stamp lab WANDERLUST Collection! Woot Woot!

First up, is a card I made using the "ROAD TRIP" Phrase die along with the Large Travel Suitcase Stamp. 

I started with Solar White CS and stamped the Suitcase image all around the base in Onyx Black Versafine Ink. I then stamped onto red CS and embossed it in Clear Embossing Powder. I then fussy cut the image out and adhered it to the card on top of one of the previously stamped images. I die cut the "Road Trip" phrase once in black and once in red CS and offset them onto each other onto the card. Once done, I added some black paint splatters and layered the base to red CS and a Black Card base. 

Next up I did a Travel Journal using the "Make Memories" Phrase die along with the large Airplane and Travel Suitcase,  and passport stamps. 

I started with a Journal Base, created from the Sizzix Journal Die, that was layered with TH Postale Tissue Wrap and colorwashed with Red JD Aqua Pastel. I then added a little map I created by cutting Atlas Paper and folding and adhering to the cover. I then added the Airplane I fussy cut out from Watercolor paper and watercolored with Distress Inks.

 I also stamped and embossed the passport image onto red CS and fussy cut out and adhered to the cover. The "Make Memories" Phrase didn't all fit, so I connected the M's in the phrase. :) 

I stamped the  Airplane and Travel Suitcase,  and passport stamps onto Shrinky Dink paper with StazOn Inks, fussy cut out and baked. I then attached them to TH Swivel Clasps and attached to the spine. Aren't they adorable? I just love how they turned out.  

I created Envelopes for the inside of my journal using Atlas paper and created the inserts using CS, Watercolor and Kraft papers.  

I sure hope I've inspired you to get crafty today! Oh and don't forget if you use code "STAMPGIRLAMY" you can get 20% off your purchase! :o)

Today I'm showcasing the WANDERLUST EXPRESSIONS 1 Sentiments and the Large Sailboat and Large Travel Suitcase  Stamplab Stamps! :o)

I started with 2 Tags from the Manila Tags Die Set cut out of Strathmore Mixed Media Paper. I  created a wavy stencil out of Acetate and used Distress inks (Worn Lipstick, Picked Raspberry, Salty Ocean and Mermaid Lagoon) with a blending tool to create my backgrounds. 

I then stamped the Sailboat and Travel Suitcase onto Book Paper and fussy cut out and adhered to my tags. 

I stamped the two of the sentiments from the Wanderlust Expressions 1 set with coordinating Archival Inks and finished with paint splatters. 

I sure hope you will join us this month for the FOCUS ON THE SENTIMENT Challenge.  Be sure to check out the other designers beautiful makes here for more inspiration using more of the newly released WANDERLUST sentiments. Be sure to leave them some luv too! :o)

Two Paper Divas~ Travel

Good Morning everyone, I'm back to share with you a lil' card I made for

using the newly released  Worn Ticket and Celebrate Life along with Doodle Alphabet from last month's new release. 

 I used DP from Recollections and distressed and inked the edges with Vintage Photo Distress Ink. I stamped the Worn Ticket with Tea Dye Distress Ink and the sentiments from Celebrate Life in Vintage Photo. I then inked the edges with Walnut Stain Distress Ink and fussy cut them out. I added some twine and a TH Globe Die Cut. The Doodle Alphabet in Vintage Photo finished off my "Travel" theme. :o)

Here's a close up of my tickets:

Of course I had to do the inside to match:
