Happy Birthday Day Cards with Inspired by Stamping and My Minds Eye

Do you ever need a few Happy Birthday Cards, well I sure did for the month of May. I can't believe how friends and family I have that are celebrating this month. I made these four for some of my friends and now will start thinking of the men I will need to have some for. I can't believe how fast these came together.

I used the Fancy Label Stamps along with the Fancy Circle Happy Birthday sentiment from Inspired by Stamping to make my card with. After I had them both stamped, I fussy cut the label out and placed it on a piece of brown card stock, cutting  it out a second time. Once they are adhered together place them on pop dots to the front of your card that you have made using My Minds Eye The Sweetest Thing paper and lace to.

I added some fabulous flowers from Mon Ami Gabby that I inked with a bit of brown ink, placed them to the front of my card along with a fun bow, some stick pins and bling from Want2Scraps. I hope you try your had a making some fun and fabulous cards. Hugs Pammejo

Inspired by Stamping Fancy Label Release - You Are On My Mind

Inspired by Stamping Fancy Label II is one of six stamps being released for May. The Fancy Label II Stamp Set has  labels and you are able to get a matching die to use with it. I used Inspired by Stamping  Trendy Sentiments to stamp my label with.

I stamped my images three times on to different pattern paper, I cut each piece out once I had them stamped and colored with my Copic Markers. I placed the sentiment piece on pop dots to give it the dimension that I wanted and added a metal butterfly to the front of the card.

I love finding paper that I create flowers with and that is what I did with my flowers. I first fussy cut two flowers out that are similar, making sure on one to cut into the petals. Rolling this flower on my molding mat and using a stylus to shape the top flower. Once I had the shape I wanted I glue it to the center of the other flower and placed it on my card front. I added an epoxy bubble to the centers of the flower and added a fabulous little bow. I hope you check out what some of the other Inspired by Stamping designers have done with the Fancy Label II. and to do that here is a list so you can visit their blogs.

Bo Bunny May Sketch Challenge using Prairie Chic and IBS Creative Tags

Today I am sharing with you the May Card Sketch Challenge from Bo Bunny.

This is my take on the sketch using Bo Bunny Prairie Chic paper pad along with Inspired by Stamping Creative Tags for my sentiment.

I added a bit of Glossy Accent to a few dots on the Prairie Chic paper so they would have a bit of dimension to them. I love dimension to my projects.

As you can see with my take on the Inspired by Stamping Congrats Tag that I made by adding a fun mustard colored sheer bow and a fun little roly poly flower.

I also added a few more of the roly poly flowers with my Want2Scrap Filigree Bird. I hope you like my take on the the Bo Bunny May Sketch Challenge using the Inspired By Stamping Creative Tag Stamps, check out both sites and maybe participate in the challenge. Hugs Pammejo

Hello Spring with Want2Scraps, Technique Tuesday and Teresa Collins

"Hello Spring Tag" is just a fun tag I made for my friend Ann. I recently did a Facebook contest with Want2Scraps ... all you had to do was "like" their Facebook page and tag a friend, so that is what I did. (I have liked/loved Want2Scraps for along time but I still tagged Ann and we won the prize package.) How exciting is that, so if you haven't liked Want2Scraps Page yet I would suggest you do that.

One of the items I won is the Vintage Phone die cut, it so cute. I painted it with my Tim Holtz Fired Brick Distress Paint and added a bit of Couture Creations Red Glitz Glamour. I also used  Couture Creations Scallop Circles and Rectangle to do my decorating with and to place my Technique Tuesday Beauty of Spring sentiments on.

I added a bit of Want2Scraps Swirl Rhinestones to the top of my tag along with adding a few more stamped sentiments from the Technique Tuesday Beauty of Spring. I have to also mention that my tag is made from Teresa Collins Stationary Notes papers.

Inspired by Stamping Release - For You Cards using Mason Jar Summer Add On Stamps

I just love the new Mason Jar Summer Add On Stamps that Inspired by Stamping will be releasing on May. I made a couple of cards showing you the fabulous jar two of the different fruits that are being offered on Mason Jar Summer Add On Stamp set.

  Here is the side view of my card to show how I have the "blueberries" layered on the outside of the card. Do you notice you I stamped them so they would look like they belong "in" the jar. I stamped the jar with black ink and then stamped the "blueberries" in Danube Blue stamping it once onto the inside of jar, then stamping again and again. Re-ink and repeat the steps always stamping three times with one inking, it will give you the shadows to achieve this look.

Make sure to notice the first card since I did the same techniques on the second, the only difference is I changed to a strawberry stamp and used different paper collections.

I colored both my lid and my "For You" Tag using the Creative Tag and Spring Fling Sets from Inspired by Stamping with my Copic Markers adding the tags to the cards by wrapping brown twine around the lid and tying a bow to the tag and placed the jars on pop dots.

I hope you check out  what some of the ohter Inspired by Stamping designers have done with the Mason Jar Summer Add On Stamps. here is a list so you can visit each of their blogs to continued to be inspired by some beautiful stamps and some amazing projects.

SinCity Stamps - Proud a s A Peacock Card using Tim Holtz Distress Paints

Today I would love to share with the Wild Life and  Metal Madness from SinCity Scraps Stamps using Tim Holtz new distress paints. The stamps from SinCity Scraps Stamps are just so unique and fun to use as you will see on my Proud as a Peacock Card.

I started by placing three different colors of distress paint on to my craft sheet, spritzed it with a bit of water and rubbed my tag through it. HINT: If you don't captured enough color on your tag, just repeat making sure to dry between swipes.

 

This is the looked that I achieved after two applications of the paint, drying between the application with my low temp heat gun.

Once my tag was dried I stamped the peacock border stamp down the left side using my black Memento ink, stamping over the top with the Metal Madness background stamp using Memento Rose Bun ink.

I distress all the edges of my tag with my distress tool and brown ink. To make the peacock, I stamped the image twice onto cream card stock, once with Danube Blue so I could fussy cut the bird part out and then the second with Danube Blue, Cantaloupe, and Pear Tart Memento Ink, fussy cutting the whole peacock out. place the bird on top of the whole bird, ink edges with the brown ink. Place on tag over the "Proud as a Peacock" sentiment with pop dots.

I placed my tag on top of a 5 x 7 card base that I had decorated with pattern paper. I hope you take time to check out the lastest and greatest new stamps that are being made available at the SinCity Stamp Store. Hugs Pammjeo

Happy Birthday with Inspired by Stamping

I found this sketch on the Mojo Monday Blog and what a fabulous sketch Teresa Kline has made for us to be inspired from.

I used My Minds Eye Springtime 6 x 6 paper pad to make my Happy Birthday card with. I know I will be making several more in the upcoming days.

The Fancy Circle Stamp Set from Inspired by Stamping is perfect for the sketch, don't you think? I stamped my Happy Birthday image with Lady Bug Memento Ink, fussy cut the circle out and placed it on to a 2 1/2" scallop circle punch. I hope you check out Inspired by Stamping Store to check out the other fabulous stamps they have. Hugs Pammejo
