17 Awesome Years - Labeler Alphbet

November 3, 2016

My oldest is 17 today! It's amazing how quickly the time has passed. He is such a wonderful young man and I am so very proud of him. We are exited to celebrate him today.

This is the cute card I made for him using Labeler Alphabet and the large number framelits. I always find it a bit hard to make a more masculine handmade card. They still end up looking cute and crafty to me. Ah well. I like how this turned out and I am happy to find additional uses for the Warmth and Cheer paper stack!

Totally Trees - WWYS88

October 31, 2016

Welcome to another week of What Will You Stamp? To participate in this week's challenge and to see all the great projects from the Design team using this set be sure to visit the What Will You Stamp? Challenge Blog or simply click the photo below.

This week we were challenged to use the Totally Trees Stamp set. I created two cards with this set using the same basic supplies. I have found my new favorite stamp image ... the image of 7 random dots. What a great piece to create backgrounds, and there is no need to line it up. The circles looks great randomly repeated, even when overlapping. I paired both of these cards with a sentiment from Better Together.

Labeler Alphabet - WWYS87

October 24, 2016

Are you ready for another stamp set challenge?! Labeler Alphabet is one of the first stamp sets I purchased from the 2016 catalog but never quite got around to using it. It happens to be this weeks What Will You Stamp challenge set. WOOHOO! I finally busted this little guy out and started to play.

When I stamped the letters I wasn't totally happy about the space between each letter. Easy to fix, I trimmed the edge of those stamps down just a tiny bit until I got the equal spacing I was looking for. I'm always looking for that perfect verse or saying. No excuses now. You'll be seeing a lot of this stamp set in the future.

Check out the other fabulous creations on the WWYS blog. Play along!

Cookie Cutter Halloween - WWYS86

October 17, 2016

Yikes! Better a few hours later than never. This weeks What Will You Stamp challenge set is Cookie Cutter Halloween. This is a darling Halloween set that coordinates with the cookie cutter punch! See all the amazing projects on the WWYS blog and play along if you have this set!

My card this week is all about the mummy, gauze and wrapping. I used the seaside textured embossing folder to mimic the wrapping of a mummy. I heat embossed the mesh gauze pattern from Ghoulish Grunge, white on white to enhance the effect. I added just a few tiny specks of silver emboss powder, for a little sparkle, and to match the ribbon. I can't decide if it looks deliberate or just messy.
