Busy day!

Two of my grandsons are graduating from sixth grade today and I just have to go to lunch with a couple of friends too! What’s a girl to do? Well, she is to stamp something fast! lol

CC324

This may not look like a quick card, but it really was.

I inked the Rubbernecker image with markers before stamping 3 times onto vanilla cs. I then added the punched flowers and butterflies and the big ol' bow. The bow is seam binding, colored with tumbled glass reinker and coffee shop glimmer mist. The card front is layered onto soft suede cs. I then sprayed the whole thing with the coffee shop glimmer mist.

I’m still here . . .

Yay! Monday! Mmmmmm, well, whatever. It’s the beginning of a new week.

I just haven’t been able to leave this card alone. I keep making what I hope are improvements to it. Here is what I’ve done with it today!

#1 I created the card and it was fine, but I thought it needed a little something above the panel, so I embossed the little scallop. That was nice.

TLC326 closed 2_edited-1

 011_edited-1

I decided that it needed a little break at the embossing, so I cut a very small strip of the Basic Gray card stock and added it just above the embossing. Oh yeah, I like that better. What do you think?

TLC326 w gray _edited-1 TLC326 w gray 2_edited-1

This card was created for the SCS challenge to create a card that is hiding a sentiment. Every time I hand a card to my husband to see what he things, he carefully looks it over and then, if he can’t figure it out, asks, “What does it do?” lol Too funny. Well, he will be happy to see that this one does something.

I stamped this cute raccoon image onto white cs with Tuxedo black ink before coloring with Copic markers. That is backed with Basic Gray cs. The butterfly is the hinge which is stamped with black ink onto the yellow cs and carefully cut out with scissors. The card is a 140 lb. paper from MFP that is the bomb for card bases. It is sooooo heavy. I love it. But don’t try to use your punches on it. NO WAY! But as a card base, trust me, it is the best.

Thanks for stopping by! Please come again soon!

Oh my goodness, I had more fun creating these projects. Maybe it is because of the colors, but I don’t know, I just love the look of these. I hope you do too.

So, I started out making this card by stamping the leaves. 

First I inked the medium sized leaves (you get three different sizes in the set) with Peeled Paint Distress Ink, stamped it once and then without re-inking, stamped again, moving it slightly. Next I inked the smaller leaf stamp with the same ink and stamped it over the previous images. Nice. I then punched the flowers using Martha Stewart’s 3 in 1 hydrangea and two shades of purple card stock. I added dimension by using my stylus and pressing the centers into a mouse pad. Those were glued onto the image, then I added the small pearls to the centers. The sentiment (also included in this set) was stamped using Lavender Lace ink. Now, what to use in that upper left corner? I used diluted reinker in a plastic bag to color my seam binding, scrunching it up and then drying it with my heat tool. I love the different shades it takes on when you do this. I tied a simple bow, leaving the ends nice and long and adhering them where I wanted them with glue dots. Hmmm, I wanted more! So, I punched the edge with the Martha Stewart Swirling lace punch. The inside of the card has the smallest leaves stamped there as well. You can see them peeking out if you look carefully. Ahhhhh! I love this girly girl card. How about you?

I love this one so much, I created more using basically the same ideas.

another 560

Thinking this would be a great gift set, I created a little holder for several of these cards using the same punches and a Spellbinders dies.

I added a bit of shimmer to the sentiment of this one with AtYou pens.

This card features the new set Poppies 3. Whenever I see poppies like these, it reminds me of the olden days when I was a little girl. When stopping for red lights while driving around town, men would come by our car selling these poppies to help support our veterans. To check my memory, I did a google search and found more information which I have put at the end of the post.

Poppies 3 532-13

I stamped the image and sentiment onto white card stock using Tuxedo Black Memento ink. It is colored with Copic markers. The bottom right corner is punched with a Martha Stewart Swirling Lace corner punch. I adhered a piece of red gingham ribbon around the card, used another length of ribbon to tie a bow and added a button before gluing it to the ribbon. The white panel is matted onto the black card front. I added black brads to the centers of the flowers. This sentiment even fits our great veterans, don't you think?

Thanks for stopping by! Now go hug a veteran!

Q. Why are red poppies worn on Veterans Day, and where can I obtain them?

A. The wearing of poppies in honor of America's war dead is traditionally done on Memorial Day, not Veterans Day. The practice of wearing of poppies takes its origin from the poem In Flanders Fields, written in 1915 by John McCrae.



In Flanders Fields


In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly.
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved, and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

This was the poem written by World War I Colonel John McCrae, a surgeon with Canada's First Brigade Artillery. It expressed McCrae's grief over the "row on row" of graves of soldiers who had died on Flanders' battlefields, located in a region of western Belgium and northern France. The poem presented a striking image of the bright red flowers blooming among the rows of white crosses and became a rallying cry to all who fought in the First World War. The first printed version of it reportedly was in December 1915, in the British magazine Punch.

McCrae's poem had a huge impact on two women, Anna E. Guerin of France and Georgia native Moina Michael. Both worked hard to initiate the sale of artificial poppies to help orphans and others left destitute by the war. By 1920, when Guerin, with the help of the American Legion, established the first poppy sale in the U.S., the flower was well known in the allied countries — America, Britain, France, Canada, Australia and New Zealand — as the "Flower of Remembrance." Proceeds from that first sale went to the American and French Children's League.

Guerin had troubles with the distribution of the poppies in early 1922 and sought out Michael for help. Michael had started a smaller-scaled Poppy Day during a YMCA conference she was attending in New York and wanted to use the poppies as a symbol of remembrance of the war. Guerin, called the "Poppy Lady of France" in her homeland, and Michael, later dubbed "The Poppy Princess" by the Georgia legislature, went to the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) for help.

The poppy was adopted as the official memorial flower of the VFW at its national convention in Seattle, Wash., in August 1922, following the first nationwide distribution of poppies ever conducted by any veterans organization.

In 1923, faced by a shortage of poppies from French manufacturers, the VFW relied on New York florists to make up the difference. This was a huge setback, however, and led to the idea by VFW officials to use unemployed and disabled veterans to produce the artificial flower. This concept was approved in late 1923 and the first poppy factory was built in Pittsburgh, Pa., in 1924. This provided a practical means of assistance to veterans and also ensured a steady, reliable source of poppies. Veterans at Department of Veterans Affairs medical facilities and veterans homes help assemble the poppies, and each year the VFW distributes roughly 14 million worldwide.

It was around the same time the first poppy factory was built that the VFW registered the name "Buddy Poppy" with the U.S. Patent Office. The term "Buddy" was coined by the poppy makers as a tribute to their comrades who did not come home from the war or who were scarred and crippled for life.

The VFW celebrated the 75th anniversary of the Buddy Poppy as its official flower in 1997. While profits from its sales have helped countless veterans and their widows, widowers and orphans over the years, the poppy itself survives as a perpetual tribute to those who have given their lives for the nation's freedom.

This one uses Wild Garden Corner 539-01

539-04 Wild Garden Corner 01

I don’t often use orange, but I really like it on this card. The card base is orange cardstock which was embossed with a Sizzix Happy Birthday folder and the corners rounded. The next layer is green to match the greenery in the image just cut in a square to really show off the main panel with those lacey edges. I colored the stamp with markers and then stamped onto white card stock before cutting/embossing with Spellbinders Lacey Squares. I added a little yellow shimmer to the centers of the flowers with an AtYou pen. The sentiment is only part of a sentiment, inked with a marker to omit the rest of it. That is from the Butterflies are Free set 538. I stamped onto the orange cardstock using pumpkin pie ink and that is matted with pumpkin pie cardstock before being adhered to the white Lacey Square. To embellish, I punched a 1/4” circle from the green cardstock and adhered the shimmery orange dome to that before adding it to the top of the sentiment panel. I also added three loops of the green ribbon for some balance.

Thanks for looking.

Both of these card were created with the new set American Made!

American Made 2 ksh_edited-1

This one features that great image of the Statue of Liberty. Love it. I stamped the image with versmark ink onto red cardstock and embossed with silver before mounting onto white and dark blue card stock. The red and white panels, as well as the blue star are embossed with the Cuttlebug Stars folder. The USA is inked with versmark ink and embossed with white before being cut and popped up. I added the blue star with the white brad in the center.

American made ksh

This card utilizes some dp by Kaiser Scrapbook. The wonderful eagle image is inked with Black Tuxedo Memento ink but the flag colored blue with a blue marker. The image panel is matted onto the starred designer paper. I added more panels of the designer papers and used machine stitching around all of them. The sentiment was added to the bottom right corner with star brads embellishments. The brads were ivory so I colored them with Copic markers to match. The bow is actually regular old cotton twine with one length colored with my blue marker.

I need to send some cards to some military men I know. These will be perfect.

Here are two cards I created using this new set: Big BoyToys! I love this set with such great images for those masculine cards we have such a hard time creating. Also included is a great big rig image and lots of wonderful sentiments to go with them.
Big boy toys 2_edited-2

For this one, I stamped the image using Rich Cocoa memento ink onto white and then colored with Copic markers before cutting/embossing using Spellbinders Deckle Rectangles. I mounted it onto a light blue mat with the corners punched. That is popped up onto a brown strip and then onto a dp layer which are both embossed with Sizzix Woodgrain folder. I added the clip with the sentiment and then a bit of baker’s twine (also from MFP) knotted onto the clip. No bows – it is for men after all.

Big boy toys_edited-2

Now, if you don’t like to color you can still create a fabulous card like this. I stamped the same image using Black memento ink onto a caramel colored card stock and sponging the edges with Vintage Photo distress ink before mounting onto the red cardstock. The black panel behind the truck is embossed with Cuttlebug diamond folder. Under that is a bit of designer paper mounted onto the red card front. The sentiment panel is created by stamping the tread mark with Vintage Photo ink, stamped off once and then the sentiment added using black ink, mounting onto black and then cutting the ends. I added black brads and popped it up.

So you see, you can create great manly cards coloring or not. Easy Peasy!

Here comes the grad ksh3_edited-1

Isn’t this a great graduation set? YES! I used three of the images from the set, stamped with dark blue ink onto this great textured ivory card stock (also from MFP). The images are cut/embossed using Spellbinders Rectangle dies and matted with dark blue card stock before being mounted onto the card front. Now – see that sentiment . . . it is the name of the set and each stamp set comes with one of those, but isn’t it just perfect for this year’s grads? Oh please say yes! Smile I added three dark blue brads for balance and – tah dah!

I hope you like it.

Happy Mother's Day


I wish each of you ladies a very happy Mother's Day!

Wednesday, May 4, 2011

And now . . .

It is time for some previews of new sets being released next week by Mark's Finest Papers. Both sets are very timely with the recent world events and graduations just around the corner.

American made 3_edited-1

This card shows a fabulous new patriotic set which is called American Made. It has lots of great patriotic images. For this card I used markers to color the stamps to get both the red and blue on them. I love the star embossing folder with these patriotic images. Let me just give a shout out to our magnificent troops!

Here comes the grad ksh_edited-2

This card is for a graduate, of course. This set is called Here Comes the Graduate. I used the cap stamp to create my own dp for the card front, coloring only the tassel. The “book” is created by stamping the wonderful sentiment onto some textured vanilla cardstock and cutting/embossing using Spellbinders Labels Seven. After scoring it in the center, I popped each “page” up a bit to give it more dimension. I then added the tassel which was stamped and embossed with black onto red cardstock and I added a brad. The card front is also scored for just a little more interest. This is an easily mailable card which is my goal lately.

Thanks for stopping by. Keep coming back to see more previews of the stamps and then the blog hop begins on the 10th!
