Creative With Stamps


November 1st brings a new challenge from Creative With Stamps.
and this month our Challenge is "Turkey". 

I don't have a turkey stamp in my vast stamp collection, but I  was able to google digi stamps and find this cute Baby Turkey.
Sorry, I don't know who the designer is, but will try to find out and post it here later.

Hope you will join us this month and enter up to three of your cards.  Please stop by HERE to check out the cards my talented teammates created and leave them some love then join in the fun to win some great prizes.

Laurie's Fabulous Favorites #14

October 23 ~ 30, 2019

I am joining  Laurie Schmidlin this week as she shares her inlaid die cut technique.
The challenge is to create a project utilizing this creative technique and join along at the Ink To Paper Blog HERE.

I cut PTI's Bold Borders-Yuletide die plate out of green and white cardstocks.  I inlaid the white border and the green sentiment.  The iridescent sequins and Wink Of Stella on the "Be Merry" add a bit of festive shimmer and shine, eh?
 Note to self:  add the WOS to sentiment before adhering it onto the card panel with spray glue :-)

Once I decided on a design and die cuts to use (like a 2 hour process-LOL), this card came together pretty quickly.
I will definitely make a few of these mailable Christmas cards with different color combos this year.

I am joining  Laurie Schmidlin this week as she shares her favorite way to use Kraft cardstock.

I used a favorite flower embossing folder from Sizzix for my Beautiful Butterflies to flutter over on Kraft cardstock. 
The peachy colored HB die picks up the small peach dots on the patterned butterflies. 
Thought the crystal sequins added just a touch of bling 😀

I made a Christmas card with my line of trees stamp by using the Christmas Words embossing folder on the base card.  
There is Wink of Stella sparkle on the bare tree branches to add to the winter scene also.

I love the color-combo Laurie used and was inspired to make this non-traditional Christmas card.  I really like how it turned out and may have to make a few more to add to my stash.💗

This stamp is an old Impression Obsession wood block called "Fall Scene" that I bring out every year to make Thanksgiving cards.  It reminds me of the houses in New England where I grew up.  

The sentiment is a die from Papertrey Ink: Counting My Blessings.  Cardstock panel is Fine Linen from PTI.
