Brick Wall

Hello everyone, Donna here!

It's my turn to post today, and I've got an ATC to share with you. I used the Brick Wall tutorial from the December 2010 newsletter. I did mine a little differently, though. I used hexagons instead of rectangles and I used scraps of neutral colored papers instead of reds making mine look like a patio rather than a wall. It's an entirely different look, but the technique is exactly the same. I'm not sure about the stamps credit on this one because I ditched the packaging, but it's a clear stamp and I believe it's from Stampendous.

To my fellow U.S. junkies, have a fun and safe Memorial Day holiday!  To everyone else, have a great weekend!

Here is a page with a technique that is called

For this page Club Scrap Cruisin' paper is used

and alphabet stamps from Michael Strong and

in the background and the little car stamp are also

by Club Scrap.

It was so much fun to see al these old cars and I picked

one of my favourite cars: an MGA 1600,

isn't it a beauty?! If only.... one can have a little dream....

Below you see those connected tags close up.

They are fun and easy to make.

Graduated Color by Judy Jackson

No, the ink isn't faded -- yes the color tones are the same family, and yes you can create this card with the use of the Graduated color Technique form the current April/May 2011 newsletter! My focal image stamp is from Stampotique and the sentiment is from SmART Works. A few layers, some ribbon and beads, a punch and voila, your card is completed. This sentiment works for a Thank You card, a birthday card, or just a Thinking of You card!

When you need a card quickly, this is a "go to technique!"

Happy stamping and get those fingers inky!

Gingersnap Creations with Scene Stamping by Judy Jackson

Scenic Stamping from the August/September 2007 newsletter continues to be a favorite technique of mine. I don't use it all the time because I just need a little inspiration from time to time. But I thoroughly enjoy creating a scene with my rubber stamps and some ink! I purchased these stamps from Seaside Stamping, Stamps 'n' More, Inkadinkadoo, and My Sentiments Exactly just for the purpose of the Scenic Stamping technique, I was very pleased to be able to use these stamps with the Scene Stamping challenge this week from the Gingersnap Creations blog!

Summer weather and the beach just seem to go together. I love sitting by the beach and reading a book -- and just relaxing. Of course spending time at the beach with my little grandchildren is always a delight.

What scene will you stamp this week?
