ARTplorations Stencil Blog Hop

Hello!  I'm so happy you've made your way to my blog today!  If you've stumbled upon this hop make sure you click over to the beginning on the STAMPlorations blog as you won't want to miss a thing!

I've chosen to work with the Broken Glass Stencil in a fun way, take a look...

To create this card I've used the Happy Word Die, the Birthday Word Die, the Balloons and Banners Stamp Set as well as the ARTplorations Broken Glass Stencil.  I wanted to create a different look with my stencil so I angled it and used several colors of distress ink.  I then added some stars to the open corners and the sentiment dies in the middle.  I then layered this onto some patterned acetate.

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Make sure you head over to the STAMPlorations blog for more details and for the full hop list!

Happy Hopping/Crafting!

A Latte Holiday Cheer

Hello!  Today I am taking part in the Coffee Lovers Blog Hop with a few fun stamp sets by Mint Owl Studio...

To create this card I stamped my coffee image in the center of a white panel.  Now for my sentiment I used the Coffee Craze Stamp set mixed with the Trim the Tree Stamp Set.  I then used Copic® Markers for the cup and a white gel pen for the dish.  To create a fun bokeh effect I used the circle images from the Trim the Tree Stamp Set and various light inks.  After I diecut the panel I layered it with some Wood Veener (thanks hubby!).

Make sure you join in the fun and hop along!  All kinds of inspiration in one spot, hope to see you there!

How Did You Get So Old?!

hehehe... oh how I love snarky comments, and this one just tickled my fancy so I went with it.  I'm here and on the Mint Owl Studio Blog today sharing this funny Birthday Card that was created with a mixture of stamps...

To create this card I started by stamping my sentiment from the Snarky Birthday Sentiments set in the upper left corner.  I then stamped the dinosaur and crutch from the Get Well Critter Stamp Set on the same panel and die cut the bottom at an angle.  After I colored my little scene in with various Copic Markers I decided he needed one more thing... a birthday hat!  So I grabbed my Party Pals set and stamped a little hat to cut out and add to the top of his little head.

Thanks for stopping by today and Happy Crafting!
