RainyDay Stamper

Since today is the last day

of May and the last day of National Scrapbooking Month, how about a Scrapbook page made in My Digital Studio.

When we were away, my friend Sue, told us about Galletta Meadows in Borrego Springs so we took a drive out there.  My word, the sculptures are amazing. 

 This is a Jeep, complete with driver, passenger, spare tire, gas can, the back seat looks just like it was made out of vinyl.  Richardo Breceda is the magic behind the steel and Dennis Avery (yes, Mr Avery Label guy) is the money man.  It was a wonderful way to spend an afternoon and yes, you will get more pictures.

Happy Stamping,

 

Recess

was a great part of my school day growing up and having fun on the playground.  Love the images in this set,

 I loved my Hula Hoop, it was yellow but I wasn't allow to take it to school!
This simple card uses a Marina Mist for the base and then a piece of So Saffron DSP from the Subtles Collection and Melon Mambo punched with our 2 3/8" Scallop Circle punch. The image is stamped with Black Stazon onto Whisper White and colored in with my markers.  Loving the Tasteful Trim Bigz Die to make interesting borders.

Happy Stamping,

 

Happy Saturday

Hard to believe, the last Saturday of May, did this month go quickly for you too?  Summer just around the corner now, my favourite season.  Sun and warmth and of course travel for some.  How about a trip to the Eiffel Tower?  Ok, maybe not but 

 .

a girl can dream right?

Beautiful Butterflies

 

 I just love the butterfly from the Strength & Hope set so much detail in the wings.  I have made this card very simple, just stamping the butterfly three times using Pretty in Pink ink and then the matting and card base are Blushing Bride.

Flowers, Birds, Summer

 This card is for the Sketch Challenge this week on SUDSOL, and again I am using Chic Boutique, the set that won't get put away till I make five cards with it.I love this DSP, Beyond the Garden, and I have layered it with on a thin strip of Whisper White and then Melon Mambo.  I stamped the bird cage onto Whisper White with Versamark and then embossed it using Gold Embossing powder then coloured the bird with my Melon Mambo marker and the leaves and perch with Wild Wasabi marker.  I rounded the opposite corners on both the image panel and the Melon Mambo mat, popped it up with dimensionals and Voila, we are done!

Pretty in Pink Roses

 

 Just like the card I posted a couple weeks ago using the Flower Garden Impressions folder but this time using the Manhattan Flower folder.  I used Pretty in Pink DSP choosing the small polka dot pattern and don't the roses just pop off the page.  Sanding the DSP is simple, use a circular motion and lightly sand until the core of the paper can be seen.

 

Happy Stamping,

Reinker technique

Yes, such a easy but WOW technique I had to teach it again.  While you can do this technique with so many of Stampin' Up's beautiful images, I love the rose from Fifth Avenue Floral.

 Very similar to the card we made at the last card, but this time using Perfect Polka Dot impressions folder for the background.  I love White on White, so elegant but adding the texture really makes it pop.  A strip of Rich Razzleberry and the beautiful rose finish of a beautiful card.

Happy Stamping,
