Vino

Hello my crafty friends!  Happy Thursday!  

It's Lisa here today to bring you a fun way to get more from your background stamps. 

I originally created this background last August for our Stripes Challenge. I wanted to hand create stripes but then got sidetracked and designed a totally different card for the challenge. 

These stripes were created by marking off stripes with masking tape and then swiping a distress oxide ink pad along the paper. Remove the tape when the ink is dry and add white stripes with a gel pen. 

I'm still in love with my Wine Background stamp and use it many different ways.  For this card I stamped and colored the image then die cut it into a flag shape. Just add embellishments to finish off your theme. 

Just for Fun background wine stamp. Club Scrap papers. Cuttlebug embossing folder. Creek Bank Flag die. Melissa Frances wine bottle die. Ranger Distress Oxide inks. Nuvo drops. American Craft twine.

Have a fabulous day!  

Handprint Hugs

Welcome to Just for Fun Rubber Stamps newest challenge. Marie is challenging us to make a card that slides, wiggles, rolls, flips or folds.  We would love for you to join us in the fun! 

How awesome are wiper cards! If you pull the card outward on both sides a little sentiment flag pops up from the inside.  

Just for Fun hand print stamp and sentiment. Club Scrap papers, ribbon, button and stipple mists. Cuttlebug embossing folder. Impression Obsession die. Tonic Nuvo drops.

1. Start with two 4.5x7.75" card panels scored and accordion folded at 5.75" and 6.25".  One 3x3 sentiment panel. 

2. Fold 1/2" corner of the 3x3" panel at a 45 degree angle. Adhere the corner of the square 1/2" down from the top under the right flap. 

3.  Adhere the 1.5" flaps of each panel to the front and back of the card making sure the sentiment wiper is sandwiched on the inside. 

Pulling the sides outward pops up the "wiper" sentiment.

One Day at a Time

Paper Smooches Stamps is hosting a Heart Challenge for the month of February.  It was hard to narrow down which hearts to use. I've got so many to share!

Cheers!

Cheers my crafty friends! I've been experimenting with my handmade wreath builder stencil and thought I'd do something fun with this wine bottle stamp.  The spatter background stamp adds a fun, messy element to this card.  The spatters look like wine after a long day in my tasting room :)

Are You Kitten Me?!

Today I'm a guest designer for the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers. I won their last "B is for Book" challenge and am honored to start off the "K is for Kitten" challenge. Which is just perfect since I have two kitties running amok in my house right now.
