Loves Rubberstamps Design Day

I'm back with another card for Loves Rubberstamps which in the store, features some new stamps from JustRite that Laura has brought in and should be up on the site fairly soon. A month ago I asked Laura if she would bring in diferent stamp companies like JustRite, so she asked for a list of the stamps I owned and OMG I didn't realize how many stamps I had. So here is my first card using one of the newest release from JustRite called "Christmas Vintage Labels One" and "Snowfall Background". I started off with using Metallic Silver for my base which is a 5"x 7" finished card size. I then used S.E.I collection called 'Silver Valley' for the rest of my papers. For the first layer I used a dark navy paper and then ran it thru a Spellbinder's E-Bossabilities called 'Holiday Magic', I used side A. I then used my Brilliance ink pad called Moonlight White to the embossed areas of the paper. I then added one more layer of paper from the same collection before adding the background which I made  using the Snowflake background stamp with white pigment ink and embossed using white EP. I ran blue iris over it make some of the snowflakes show up (quite hard to see). I stamped 3 times using a Vintage label from the Christmas Vintage Labels 1 using white crafters ink and embossed using silver EP for one and using Lullaby Blue EP for the other 2. I coloured the labels using Lindy's Gang Magicals in the following colours 'Afternoon Delight Denim' and 'Tiffany's Blue'. I cut out different parts of the label and attached them using foam dots. I stamped "Winter Wonderland" using white crafter's ink onto white stripe lustre paper and embossed using deep blue EP. I punched it out using Stampin'Up scalloped oval. I cut the snowflake using various papers from the 'Silver Valley' collection and using Spellbinders 'Create A Snowflake' die. I added some blue ribbon by Michael's.

Stamping Dragon Designs - Music Theme

I'm back with another card for Stamping Dragon Designs and this week's theme is music. I used Jiggy with IPod and printed him onto shimmery paper. I colored him using Prismacolor pencils. I started off using basic black for my base which was a 5"x 7" finished card size. I used striped paper from the Mocha Morning Specialty paper by Stampin'Up. For the second layer I used Flower Gold Foil by Penny Black. I cut a tag out using the same collection using Tim Holtz Tag & Bookplates and then cut out another tag smaller using black music Newsprint collection paper by Stampin'Up. I then cut out a doily using Cheery Lynn die called English Tea Party Doily using Penny Black's paper called 'Music Foil White'. I  sponged Aquamarine, Tangerine and Chestnut Roan Fluid Chalk on the tag and the doily. I added some gold crochet netting by May Arts and some music ribbon by Michael's. I then cut a frame out gold metallic paper using Memory Box die called 'Tiffany Frame'. I added 4 basic pearls where shown.

Loves Rubberstamps Card Challenge - Inspired by a Photo

 I'm back with another card for Loves Rubberstamps card challenge which is inspired by this photo. I used Soft Suede for my base which is a Double Zig Zag Card. Which I found the directions here: http://mariannespapir.blogspot.de/2012/06/double-zig-zag-card-tutorial.html

I used Stampin'Up retired paper collection called 'Le Jardin' for the rest of my papers. I used Stampin'Up eyelet punch to punch along the edges of the Soft Suede paper and different papers of Le Jardin as well.

Here is a picture of the inside of the card. I stamped the Girl from the Mo Manning stamp set called "Talk to the Bear" using Ranger's Archival Coffee ink. I coloured her using the following Stampin 'Up reinkers; Old  Olive, Lucky Limeade, So Saffron, Daffodil Delight, Chocolate Chip, Soft Suede and Early Espresso and a water brush to give her watercolor look. I cut her out using Spellbinders 'Curved Rectangles' and sponged Soft Suede around the edges. I then outlined the edge using Lettuce Smooch ink by Clearsnap. I added some light yellow roses by Prima Marketing as shown. I stamped the sentiment 'Talk to the Bear' using black crafter's ink and embossed using Stampendous 'Pearlustre Emerald' EP. I used 3 small roses by I AM Roses and sprayed them using Lindy's Stamp Gang Starburst sprays 'Icy Primrose God' and 'Royal Peacock Fire'. I punch this out using Stampin'Up large oval, then I punched a larger scalloped out of gold glitter paper and then used a larger scallop punch out Soft Suede. I placed this on a belly band to help keep the card closed. I added some basic pearls as shown.

For the third layer I used the paper Sandalwood and ran  it thru Spellbinders M-Bossabilities folder called 'Framed Labels One' and then used Pumpkin Spice and Blue Iris to highlight the embossed areas. Then I used the Spellbinders 'Label One' to cut out 3 frames that fit inside the embossed label. I used the sentiment from the Ornamental Beauty LL-6018 using black crafter's ink and embossed using deep blue EP by Clearsnap. I coloured the flowers in the sentiment using Pumpkin Smooch ink and outlined the edge as well. I printed the Corner Lilies twice onto shimmery white paper and colored them using Prismacolor pencils.
