The Silver Stamper

Hi, Stampers!      Can you tell I'm fond of the Animal Outing Bundle?  Of course, this doesn't have to be a Valentine, but I love the Grapefruit Grove 2018-20 In Color and also wanted to use some of the new Gingham Gala DSP from the Occasions Catalog.  Could be a thank you, anniversary, too.  Anyway, I just love this kind of haughty little giraffe from the Bundle and the heart Thinlits from Sunshine Wishes, which I die cut from the SAB FREE Grapefruit Grove (iridescent) Foil.  There's also Lovely Lipstick in the foil pack for those of you who want to stick to the more traditional Valentine colors.  And, there is a perfect "love" die in the Sunshine Wishes set.   The giraffe was stamped with Memento on Shimmery White and colored with Stampin' Blends.       The leaf on which I stamped the sentiment is a die from the Tropical Thinlits (part of the Tropical Chic Bundle).  And, of course, I couldn't use one of my animals without the Leaf Ribbon!  See my Jan

Hi, Stampers!      I just love these critters!  Have you noticed that in the 'Roo's pouch is a baby Koala?   How cute is that?!   Yep, another, easy  card from January Stamp Camp. Happy Stampin’!

Hiya, Stampers!      Yes, it's Home to Roost again.  I saw a wonderful watercolor card with this set and had to CAS!  Well, I attempted, to CAS this card by Emma Goddard, who is a member of the SU! 2019 Artisan Design Team - silly me!  Emma's looks much more like art.  Click the photo below to go to her blog for more info.  In the meantime, I will list products below - I used the same colors as Emma, but added a strip of DSP at the bottom.. NOTE:  these cards were water-colored, so Emma and I both used Jet Black Stazon on Shimmery White.  You could also use Watercolor Paper. Happy Stampin’!

Version 1 Hello, Stampers!      I love this stamp set - not just because it's FREE during Sale-A-Bration, but because it's just different and it can be colored in so many ways!  The rooster was stamped in Memento and we used a combination of Stampin' Blends and Stampin' Write Markers at stamp camp, but since we used Shimmery White CS.  You can also watercolor this handsome fellow on Shimmery White or WC paper.  We used the retired Snowflake Doilies in gold as an accent because my customers already have them and they, to me, look like feathers!  We added Gold Faceted Gems as an additional accent.        The card base and Tin Tile embossed layer are Tranquil Tide - both the embossed layer and the oval are popped up with Dimensionals.  In Version 1, the oval is the largest of the ovals from the Stitched Shapes Framelits.   We masked the rooster in order to stamp the background wheat (?) in regular and stamped-off Crumb Cake.   You'll have to vis it my B
