Sweet Stamp Shop New Release!

Hi all!  I'm back with another card featuring a NEW Sweet Stamp Shop set!  I am so thrilled to be a part of this release!  God Bless our military!  I colored both images with Copics.  In case you're wondering about my color choices, I made him an Airman.  ;)  I fussy cut both images and attached them with foam adhesive.

Sweet Stamp Shop - New Release!

Hi all!  I'm so excited to be a guest designer for the Sweet Stamp Shop!  I absolutely love the stamps they are releasing this month!  I previously served in the Air Force (nope, not a pilot) and my husband retired from the Air Force after 23 years of service last year.  To say we love our military is an understatement!  I colored the image for this card with Copics, adding 'shine' to his glasses with a white gel pen.  The stars on the background are from the same set, as are the sentiments.

Lil' Inker Designs New Release Blog Hop - Day 3!

Hi all!  Welcome to the final day of the Lil' Inker Designs New Release Blog Hop!  Hopefully you arrived here from Chrissy's Blog!  I have two cards for you today, so let's do THIS!  :D  First up, I used the Clean Lines for the Guys stamp set and matching dies.  This is such a cool set for any man in your life - and so Perfect with Father's Day quickly approaching!  I colored the engine with Copics.  I used this particular sheet from the Tribal Chic paper pack because I thought it kind of mimicked the engine shape.  I'm a nerd like that, lol!  I used the super cool Pointelle cover up die for the front of the card base for extra interest.  Love. It!!!  How fun is that sentiment??!

Next up is the SUPER FUN Tribal Chic stamp set!  I mean, seriously, the possibilities are endless with this set!  I used 3 of the images to create the background with Versamark ink.  The sentiment is also from this set {love that font}!  Then I cut out some of that awesome Tribal Chic paper using the Dual-Stitched Triangle dies and staggered them.  A little twine and some gold sequins help anchor is all together.

TAWS New Release Blog Hop!

Hi all!  Welcome to the LAST TAWS New Release Blog Hop!  I know, so sad, but we have some great sets we're releasing this month for you so let's get to it!  I am featuring the new set called Point of View.  It is such a FUN set!  I decided to create a masculine birthday card {because I need them fairly often} and it was so easy to do with this set!  I stamped the chevrons in cornflower blue ink, then layered over them with the open chevron stamp in sweet tooth pigment ink.  That's it!  A cool look in minutes! The sentiment is from the new Happy Everything stamp set.

YNS Fun Friday - Happy Father's Day

Hi all!  YAY for Friday!  Time for a new sketch and inspiration challenge on the YNS Blog!  I love this sketch!  I decided to flip it because it worked better for this image from For the Boys stamp set and the sentiment.  I colored the remote with Copics and decided to stick with the gray and yellow from the image to keep it masculine.  I love the extra little detail the notebook edge die gives to the dp layer.  And of course, I had to use the stitched rectangle dies again! A few sparkly silver gumdrops and done!

Thanks for stopping by!  Be sure to check out the rest of the DT's take on the challenges over on the YNS BLOG and play along for your chance to WIN!!!

Have an awesome weekend!

Your Next Stamp April New Release Blog Hop!

Hi all!  Welcome to the YNS April New Release Blog Hop!  We have SO much in store for you so let's get to it!

I am beyond excited for this set because it just PERFECT for masculine cards - it is called For the Boys, after all!  ;)  Because these are masculine cards, I kept them pretty CAS, only adding gumdrops for embellishments.  I love the new Stitched Rectangles dies, so I also used them a lot on these two cards.

How fun is that pitcher of beer?  Lol!  I went for more of a Shiner Bock beer (color wise), rather than say, a Coors Light. ;)

The hop only lasts until 17 April so be sure to comment before then for your chance to win!

And look!!!  Here's a code for 20% off your entire order!!!!

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the rest of the hop!!!!

Happy Buff-day

Hi all!  Here's a card I made using the TAWS set, Buff, which is FREE when you spend $40 this month!  I colored this big guy with Copics and followed the FMS179 sketch.  The sentiment is from the Yappy sentiment set.  I stayed with the masculine feel and only added a few black enamel dots.

Thanks for stopping by!  Stop by the TAWS blog for more inspiration!

YNS Fun Friday - Get a load of this!

Hi all!  Happy Friday!  Time for another Fun Friday post with some fun challenges over on the YNS Blog!  I used both the color and sketch challenges this time to make this cute boyish birthday card.  That adorable truck and the sentiments are from the Keep on Trucking set.  I colored him with Copics, then used the matching dies to cut him out.  I added some extra interest by using the Tiny Stitches - stitched line die on the card base and sides of the larger layer.

Here's a peek at the inside...
