You are Beautiful Stamp Set

Taking the risk of sounding corney . . .  I wanted to share with you a little story about the You are Beautiful Stamp Set.

I created it because I really wanted to put a stamp set out there for crafters that had the kind of sentiments that YOU would want to hear. It's absolutely wonderful to receive a card that let's you know someone is thinking about you, but imagine getting a card that says "You are beautiful strong, and enough" or how about "Take time to do what makes your soul happy. You deserve it". I wanted there to be sentiments that would truly raise someones spirits or remind them how important they are.

I took my color choices from this Doodlebug stripped paper from
their 6x6 Kitten Smitten paper pad.

I've experienced challenging times in my life, as I am sure we all have I thought those moments can be hard to get through, and if a friend or family member was experiencing the same thing I would want to tell them something special to help them through it. Imagine a time where you had a deeply trying personal time in your life, wouldn't it have been nice to hear:

"Do you realize how many events and choices, that had to occur since the beginning of time, leading up to the making of you? You are perfect exactly the way you are."

 

I hope that this stamp set can help communicate the words you would like to tell a friend or loved one. I hope you find it as special as I do.

I hope you this set inspires you to send a loved one or friend your own card with a heartful sentiment. Be sure to check out our blog all this week for lots of inspiration!

Cupcake card you could almost eat!

This is my last cupcake card, I swear!
Okay we both know that's a lie. We determined early in the week that I indeed have a cupcake obsession problem! Here is my final card using Designer Cupcake Stamp Set.This one had to be a bright and happy card because who doesn't want a happy looking card for their birthday?

I used my copics to color this sprinkle cupcake, and for the sprinkles I stamped them and cut them out. I know right now you're thinking this girls NUTS! But to be far fussy cutting is a relaxing activity for me so I love doing it...LOL! If you didn't want to do that then I would stamp the sprinkles in between the frosting lines so you can avoid all that.

I used the "Happy Birthday" sentiment on the inside of my card and colored each letter in to bring all the color from the front into the inside!

I hope you enjoyed my Cupcake fun and be sure to check out our blog all this week for lots of inspiration!

(I get my Copics HERE because the price is so good)

I wanted to create an easel card so it could stand up and you could see the yummy cupcake. I also stamped the sentiment and embossed it with white embossing powder.

I love the pink and red color combo and I used my Layered Circle Stencil to make matching background paper.

I finished it out with some buttons, lace Dazzle stickers, and twine!
I hope you enjoyed my cupcake card and

Tropic like it's Hot!

It's Tropical Party week and I couldn't resist making a pineapple card!

 

I used Doodlebug Fun in the Sun 6x6 paper pad for this card. I love the tropical prints and I think they go great with the Tropical Party Stamp Set. I used Squeezed Lemonade Distress Ink to shade the outside of my circle. This creates a little frame for my pineapples.

To make the glasses on the pineapple look refelective I used Copic markers.

When you want that reflective look you simply take 3 colors to create a sky, mountain range, and ground. In this sample I used B00-sky, E77-mountain, and E42-ground. You are going to draw a blue line at the top, a zig zag mountain range line in the middle, and a light brown line on the bottom for the ground. You can add a white gel pen line or plus shape as a highlight. That's it!

Tropical Party Week!

It's Tropical Party Week! I am kicking things off with some Tropical goodness! I absolutely love the versatility of this  Tropical Party stamp set. You can make so many different cards with this set. 

I used our Background Building Stencil & Stamps to create this next card

Of course I wanted to make a flamingo card because she's adorable! But I also wanted to make some cards using the smaller stamps as well.
For my first card I used the Layered Leaf Stencil to create this bright paper.

I used the leaf stamp to create a tone on tone paper to go with my pink and green leaf paper. I of course added a ton of rhinestones, and colored my flamingo with Copics.

For my next card I wanted to create some patterned paper using the smaller stamps. I stamped the smaller stamps randomly on kraft paper, and colored them in with Prismal colored Pencils. When I was done I took a white colored pencil and outlined each stamp. I think it really makes the images POP!

 This next card I had to channel Miami Vice to create a retro patterned card!

Lastly here is a card making my flamingo girl the star of my card!

I stamped her and some tropical leaves and colored them. Once that was done I cut them out and added them to my card.

I hope you enjoyed my Tropical fun and be sure to check out our blog all this week for lots of inspiration!

Brutus Monroe Sentiment Blog Hop

We all have sentiment stamps right? We use them on every card to compliment another stamped image, but what about using them as a stand alone stamp?Just think of all the different cards you can make just by using your sentiment stamps!

For this weeks blog hop that's exactly what we are going to do! For my card I chose to use the "Happy Birthday" sentiment from the

Super Sentimental stamp set.

I used my Distress Ink Oxides in a rainbow of colors to repeatedly stamp my sentiment to make this super fast 10 minute card.
Then I stamped, and embossed the sentiment on black paper, and thew on some bling! Done! You can make this colorful card focusing on sentiments in a matter of minutes!

 

Let's see what the Inspiration Team created with this week's theme! Follow the links below to hop along!

Kindred Stamps Prehistoric Alphabet

Super excited to share with you this fun Prehistoric Alphabet from Kindred Stamps! If you are asking yourself "What can I do with an alphabet set"? The question you really need to be asking "Is what can't I do"? You can create fun background paper, spell out titles for a scrapbook page, or do as I have done here and create a sentiment card!

I used craft paper and colored pencils to create this fun "RAWR" card, and a volcano digi stamp to complete this fun. I mean come on, who doesn't love a dinosaur card, right?

This fun set comes with little extras like dinosaur feet, dino eggs, and all the letters have little dino spike backs. Too fun!

I simply stamped the images on Kraft cardstock, and colored the sentiment in with Prismacolor pencils. Easy and simple but it has great whimsical qualities making this simple card DINO-MITE! (sorry, I just had to).

Try adding some DINO-RIFFIC goodness to your projects!

Father's Day Card

It's Fathers Day weekend! I have always wanted to have a stamp that's more geared towards the technology or computer geek dad, so . . .  I made one! LOL. I designed this stamp for the amazing Brutus|Monroe company and I made sure to add lots of geeky sentiments and graphics. 
It's called Reboot and you can get it HERE

My husband is software developer so I thought that this set would make the perfect Fathers Day card.

I stamped the computer and then masked it. I used Distress Inks to add color to the background, and then stamped a graph pattered on top. Then I colored it with Copics!

 I hope you all have a wonderful Fathers Day weekend and I hope this set inspires you to make your own tech card!
