 I used Rustic Pine (on sale!) and Gifts of Christmas (set of 5) I used ink pads to swipe ink onto my 

background in various colors and the used a paintbrush and bleach to remove some color. 

I stamped the tree image (Rustic Pine) in brown ink and then added some green to the tree.

I've made a card with some of the stamps available in this sale, plus it's a break from all the Christmas cards you've been seeing. 

Here are the stamp sets I used to create this great Father's Day card:

HATS OFF TO DAD

I cut the sentiment apart so I didn't have to mask it for this card, but kept it can easily be put back together on a stamp block or MISTI (you can save 10% on the purchase of the MISTI by using my code). 

INCREDIBALL LABELS, SET OF 2
Any of these labels would have worked on this card. 

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY

INCREDIBALL JAR, SET OF 2

This stamp is not in the clearance section; however, you can still save 10% on this stamp by using the code above. And it goes great with the Incrediball Labels set!






So, to make this card, I assembled all my layers (if you need more details, just leave me a comment) except for the cream colored CS. I stamped the jar image in a soft gray. I added the label in a dark brown. Then using sticky notes, I roughly masked off the jar and label so I could stamp the hats in various colors. 

I stamped the word "Hats" on the label, and "DAD" on the other piece of cream CS. Those were then attached in the proper areas of the card.

I even did the inside of the card:

For the inside, I added another piece of cream CS stamped with Happy Father's Day. I know that's a few months off yet. But this could easily be a guy's birthday card with just a little change of sentiment.

Hope you got some inspiration today. Go check out that sale! I'm sure you will find lots more inspiration and maybe the desire to treat yourself to a few cool stamps at a great discounted price!

Til next time,
Keepin' it inky!

Winter brrr

 Brrr is the word of the Day I think. Hello all, Kia here with you today to share this winter card.

I am using an image and sentiment from the "Let's Chill" set, which consists of  4 different Penguins and 3 sentiments, and is super cute.

 I stamped the Penguin using Memento Ink and coloured with Copic Markers. I then added the stencil from A Colorful Life called Heart Flakes to my background, brushing around the Penguin image, and using Distress Oxide Ink in Wilted Violet. 

The sentiment is stamped in the black again, and I added some Nuvo Crystal drops to the centre of the flakes for a bit of sparkle.

This was such a fun card to make and I hope you have enjoyed it as well. 

Winter Bouquet and Inventory Reduction Sale!

This card used three different Technique Junkies stamps.  The first is Winter Bouquet, then Victorian Greetings,  and Ornament 1.  I used markers to color the Winter Bouquet stamp.  Then the ornament stamp was heat embossed and then fussy cut out and layered.  The ornament stamp is on the Inventory Reduction  list!

You can save 35% off of a large number of stamps -- some of which are Christmas stamps!!  And you can use my personal Design Team code TJ10Judy   and get a total of 45% off your order in this category!

I used the same Ornament 1 stamp from the Inventory Reduction Category to create these cards.

If hugs were snowflakes

Hello friends!!

Giovana here today with a very simple card with a powerful message.

For this card I used Snowflakes, Set of 9.

I used patterned Paper to stamp the snowflakes in Versamark Watermark, then added White embossing powder, then stamped the sentiment in Blue ink.

Trimmed the piece to 5.25" x 4", adhered it to a white card base.

Finally, added White and Blue Nuvo drops.

Some of my favorites that are included in the clearance are:

• Cottage Rose (cards here & here) 
• Kingly Things (card here ... who doesn't love Elvis) 
• Valentine Love (card here)

Today I made a card for the current theme challenge at The Paper Players ... to make a Snowman Card.

I thought the adorable Snowman Stamp was perfect, since he is also dressed in a Scarf & Hat like the cutie in the photograph.

I started by creating a *snowy* background using the Grunge Dots Stencil from A Colorful Life Designs with white texture paste.

Next I stamped the snowman on white cardstock, colored his hat, scarf, buttons & nose with Spectrum Noir Markers, and added glossy accents to the buttons and his eyes before detail cutting him out.  I'm also joining the SNOW Challenge at Use Your Stuff (can't even tell you how old that Embossing Paste was from my stash ... felt so good to use it ... and that fabulous stencil was still sitting in my studio unopened).

How cute is that round little guy.  Sentiment is from Victorian Greetings.

Remember, even if stamps aren't included in the clearance, my discount code TJ10Stephanie still gets you 10% off.
