Popped Background by Judy Jackson

Hello from Judy Jackson.

Wouldn't it be great to take a good book and sit in the warm sunshine and have the time to read and enjoy the book? That is the kind of day this stamp from Rogue Redhead reminds me of.

This is a great technique from the SU companion CD. And like many of the techniques on this CD, it is adaptable to other stamps! I did use a marker to add some highlights to the stamped image!

I hope your day is filled with creativity and wonder!

Tri Shutter Leaves



Hi Friends~

Kathie McGuire here with a TriShutter card from the Fancy Folds and Motion CD.

This was a fun project because I had a chance to use all kinds of odds and ends in my stash. I chose a "leaf" theme because the recipient loves all kinds of leaves. TriShutters are fun for that reason~there are so many pallettes and nooks and crannys where you can embellish to your heart's delight!

Stamp credits are: Close To My Heart, Stampendous, Hero Arts, and probably several more I can't identify.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Random Coloring by Judy Jackson


I am think of you from Judy Jackson.

I have loved this giraffe stamp for years now. It is one of my "go to" stamps when I need a solid image stamp.

It was certainly a fun stamp to use for this Random Coloring technique in the February issue of the Technique Junkie newsletter.

Stamps credits for this card are from Stampendous and Stampin' Up.

Have a great day!

Oscar Night

Hello stampers, Hetty here and  I am into the Oscars this week.
Yes on Sunday we will know the winners and all of us will have fun watching 
the red carpet dresses and the big show.

I made this card with a fun technique from Aug/Sept 2009
called Punched Window.
It is a pitty that gold and silver are not such good colors 
to either scan or photograph,
but I hope you can imagine these colors on the right spot.

 I have used the cloisonné mini star by Michael Strong
embossed in silver or gold and the images and sentiment are
 Have a creative day!

Christmas Black and White Tri Shutter Card



Hello my friends!

Kathie McGuire here on your stamping weekend. I'm hoping my Tri Shutter card from the Fancy Folds and Motion CD will inspire you to make one, too!

All stamps are from The Rubber Cafe--I thought they were a perfect fit for this non-traditional colored Christmas card. I used a nice, sturdy black cardstock for the base from The Paper Temptress.

The clear crystals below the candle image are also from The Rubber Cafe; the hanging beads were a dollar store purchase. They come on a long piece of ribbon, so I cut them into individual pieces and taped each piece on the back side of the thin panel. Most people think I strung the beads by hand and are always surprised to learn it's a cheap and easy trick to use to embellish a card.

The black and white paper is a flocked pattern paper I purchased.

I hope you've enjoyed today's project and thanks for stopping by.
