Stamp Time Somewhere

Artisan Wednesday Wow - All About Mosaic

 

Hi there, welcome back the 2012 Artisan Design Team Blog Hop! Hope you are having a great week and enjoying all the projects if you've already been to a few.... if that's the case, you probably came from Jane Lee's Blog... I LOVE that girl! She rocks!

 I used three sets on this fun little card, but I love all 3! Gorgeous Grunge in the background - that is seriously a MUST have! Mosaic Madness and Really Good Greetings are so fun too. I think I might be addicted to Smokey Slate... I've been using it a LOT!

To get the nice little edge on the puches, I ran my cardstock through the Mosaic Embossing Folder first, then punched out the shapes.

 

Hope you enjoyed my card today and I hope it inspired you. To see even more inspiration, make sure you check out the rest of the hop - the next stop is the talented Marisa!

 

MDS Blog Hop - Summertime and Baseball of Course

Hi there!!! Happy Wednesday. I love these Wednesdays - because I am lucky enough to participate in TWO blog hops - this one and the Artisan Blog Hop!!! DO you follow both? You totally should!

This week our theme is SUMMERTIME. For us, Summertime definitely means BASEBALL! I mean of course we do lots of other things, but baseball seems to be our favorite!

So I kind of played around with the whole "Subway Style" look on this. What do you think? Do you like this trend? Do you use it in your crafting?

Please take a few and check out the rest of the super fun summer/vacation projects this week!

Artisan Wednesday Wow - Stampin' Up! NEW Alphabet Love

Hi there! Welcome back to this week’s Artisan Blog Hop! I hope you have been enjoying the blog hops over the past year. It’s hard to believe that there are only a few more weeks of regular weekly blog hops with this design team!

  So, you might be starting here with me, or maybe you are visiting from Jane Lee’s blog. Either way – happy to have you along on the hop. Make sure that you check out everyone today!

 Getting to play with all new colors and stamp sets this month was FUN! I LOVE the new Mosaic Madness collection and I think I will use it a lot!!!! I wasn’t sure at first, but once I started playing with the stamp set with the coordinating embossing folder and punch – I totally fell in love with it! SO one of my new fave techniques is to eboss with the folders and then smoosh my ink pad on the raised parts - *Jane taught me that* I love the way it looks!!!

 I also LOVE the new alphabet! How fun to be able to have the outline and a little scribble to fill it in.

Now, head on over to Marisa’s blog and check out what the rest of the team has in store for you this week!

Thanks for sticking with me!

MDS Blog Hop - What I'm working on - May

HI!!! Welcome back! Glad you could join us for this week's MDS Blog Hop. This is one of those weeks that we are sharing with you a variety of MDS projects - kind of whatever we each  might be working on. Honestly, I have been working on a ton - just nothing I can share with you yet! I'm sorry for the tease. One thing I have started playing around with is my swap cards for Convention! I know it sounds early, but I have so much coming up - I have to get a head somewhere!

Now, this may or may not be a design that makes it. But I would love to know what you think about it. Would you like to receive this card at Convention?

 It uses the Digital Exclusive kit that was released last week (May 14) You Are So Nice . There are some fun papers, stamps and embellishments in this one - and there is even the FREE coordinating little backpack download - Packed For You.

So - what do you think? I'd love to know.

Make sure to check out some of the awesome projects that the other designers came up with this week.

Artisan Wednesday Wow - One for Him and one for Her

 

Hi there, Happy Wednesday! Hope you are having a great week, it has been a busy one around here! Did you join is from Jane's Blog, or are you just jumping in? Either way, I hope you'll take a few minutes and hop all the way around.

This week I have two cards for you - one for her and one for him :)  First let me share with you the "her" card. I used the Best of Flowers Stamp Set and the Amazing Family set. It's a simple layout and one I like to rely on when I want to focus on a smaller image. I stamped the flowers in Early Espresso on a scrap of Whisper White cardstock and sponged Summer Starfruit and Calypso Coral to fill in the flowers. After that, I cut them out, adhered them to the card and used the Natural Designer Buttons for the centers. The Friend is embossed with Early Espresso Embossing Powder

 

and I was also playing with the Dapper Dad set and wanted a mix of a very simple card with an extra special element to it, so I went a little nuts on the shoe and kept the rest of the card simple.

 

Head on over to Marisa's Blog now and check out what she created this week.

 

Hope you have a great day!!!!

 

I love these and don't want you to miss them!

 I will admit, there are some weeks where I am more excited about the MDS downloads that Stampin'Up! releases than others. I guess it might have something to do with is going on in my life at that time, I'm not sure. One thing I do know, was that THIS week, I was VERY excited about the downloads! I think you will be too - especially the FREE one!

Because I like to make things easy for you - you can just click on the names and go right to instant downloading!

 Check out Because I'm the Dad

I am going to have so much fun with this one! There are 33 very cool stamp brushes in this one! And it's only $4.95!

Then there is the super adorable Faces I Love Swatchbook Template

I LOVE the cute stamp brush set in this one. It even includes "Nana", "Papa", "Oma","Opa" and what I loved - "Memaw" and "Papaw"!!! Plus it has some cute overlay and frame style stamps!

The You Are So Nice Kit - Digital Download is ADORABLE! I love the embellishments and papers!

Artisan Wednesday Wow - Brotherly Banner

Hi there! Welcome back to this week's Artisan Design Team Blog Hop!

Are you joining me from Jane's blog? If so, I am sure glad to have you! She creates the most awesome projects! If you are starting the hop here, make sure you follow it around so you can check out everyone's projects!

I know I warned you last week that this box was definitely not an easy one for me. This card is a very different look from what I usually create - so I hope you like it!

I think it feels a little more like what Jane might create....LOL although her's would probably kick mine's booty! I stamped the Beyond Plaid randomly for the background and then on Whisper White to create the little banners....being as it's a "guy card" I didn't want to add too much to it. My hubby said it was good - no need to girlie it up by adding anything :)

 Sorry for a short post today - tons and tons going on!

Head on over to Marisa's Blog and check out her project this week, then don't forget to keep going!

Enjoy everyone's creations for you this week!

Artisan Wednesday Wow - Amazing Mother

Hi everyone! Welcome back! I know I have only been posting on Wednesdays lately, hopefully that will change soon, although we did find out hubby has to have surgery on the 24th, so that might put a kink in things!

Are you joining me from Jane's blog? If so, I am sure glad to have you! She creates the most awesome projects! If you are starting the hop here, make sure you follow it around so you can check out everyone's projects!

 This month we received a few different stamp sets, some custom color pallettes and some fun accessories. However, I will say I am not sure that they are in my comfort zone, so I hope I can create some projects that you will like. This card is being sent in the mail TODAY.... to a seriously amazing woman!

 

I really like the antique look to this. Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake and Early Espresso always make for a beautiful, calm, vintage look. I stamped the Hydrangea from Best of Flowers (March - Best Od set) in Early Espresso ink on a Crumb Cake layer in the lower left corner, then stamped it multiple times on Very Vanilla. After adding some shading with my Blender Pen, I carefully cut out each one. Several of them are adhered directly to the card and others are popped up on a dimensional. I embossed the Sentiment in Early Espresso Embossing Powder. I was thrilled when I realized I could add both stamps to the same block and stamp it all at once. A touch of crochet ribbon and a Natural Designer Button tied with a snippet of Linen Thread and there you go!

Best thing about sending a card to your Mom is that she is always going to love it no matter what!

I hope you enjoyed your visit, and I hope that you will also enjoy the rest of the hop this week. Make sure that you check out Marisa's blog - you know she rocks, right?

Anyhow, I really debated submitting this scrapbook page for the Stampin' Up! Facebook project because, well, it's kind of personal. The reason I chose to, is simply because I know so many of us forget to scrap about ourselves, and sometimes it's HARD!

MDS Blog Hop - What I'm working on - April

Hi there! Welcome to the MDS Blog Hop! Happy to have you join us! Whether you are just joining us, or you have already been looking around, I am happy to have you here!

 

So it has been an intersting week here in our home (In case you didn't read about it - you can HERE) Well, I've had some wonderful friends bring me dinners and offer to help with kiddos and such. Being as I am still a little "down", I thought one nice way to show my appreciation woud be to create something for them. The Momma of these three darlings brought us a yummy pasta dinner one night, so this is what I came up with for her....

Such adorable kids! Isn't this a fun photo idea too? I believe the photos were taken by Tesher Diamond Designs photography in Las Vegas. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the red corduroy buttons - they are so FUN!

So, take a few moments and check out the rest of the team's fun projects!

(You can read about it HERE) Are you just joining us, or did you just come from Jane Lee's Blog? I was SO excited to be able to hang out with her last weekend at the Stampin' Up! Regional event - she is so awesome!

Here is my last project for the month using the Sunshine and Sprinkles kit. These are my cute little neighbor girls. They are just the sweetest!

Aren't they adorable? I especially love Miss Sassy (number 3) LOVE HER! The photographs were taken by the talented Erin Fonnesback - a photographer in the Las Vegas area.

Now I know you might be thinking that this doesn't really look like Sunshine and Sprinkles, but it IS! The Melon Mambo background is a given, but the polka dot pattern is also in the Sunshine and Sprinkles kit - I just recolored it from all the fun, bright colors to match the browns in the photos! FUN! The "Sweetness" stamp is also from the kit. I love being able to tweak my supplies in MDS. If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a comment!
