Stampendous Blog Challenge


Stampendous has a sketch challenge running this week and this is my take on it. I used the ruffled bloom stamp- colored in w/ Lyra Water Color crayons.
I also used the same stamp to stamp on the acetate along the bottom edge using violet Staz-on ink. PP is from an old K and Company stack.

I just can't stop!!!


I know that I lean a bit to the OCD side (stop laughing NOW, Nancy!) but I got Cricut Create a Critter and Just Because Cards on Sunday and have NOT been able to stop making cards ever since. These cartridges ROCK!!! I love them soooo much.
And the images and sentiments work very well together to mix and match between the 2 as well.
I was really pleasantly surprised at how well the "tweet" cloud cut at only 1 inch- wow!
Patterned paper is a Die Cuts with View paper stack (songbird) that I also got at Mike's @ the big sale on Sunday)

(Lots more cards to come- but I'll just do one a day...)

Rolling Butterflies




My assignment for CX this month is to use the Clear Snap Rollagrap stamp system.

Here are 2 cards that I made just fooling around with it.
It's very fun and you can see the slight variation in the cards just based on where the wheel starts laying down the image. This is basically the same card just using a different border punch and color scheme.

I colored in the images with Tombow markers and gave them an over spray with Tatttered Angels glimmer mists.

The textured butterfly die cuts are from SU!
