Stempel Spass

The wonderful Darnell from djcardkreations  is celebrating her birthday today!  HAPPY BIRTHDAY you sweetheart! I wish you many more. I love seeing your new creations and your blogposts - they are a treat to read! You have inspired my at so many levels - thank you! I am sure everyone knows Darnell - if not you better head over to her wonderful blog..... Darnell, this is for you: I hope you like it! I got inspired by this weeks "Masking with die cuts" over at  Make it Mondays . The super talented Erin Lincoln is showing us how to do this expertly. Its a great video to watch! So I went to "work" on this card. I diecut post it notes for masking, sponged around them and then stamped in the flowers, deliberately leaviing an off center white border around the stamps. the happy is die cut from a paint chip. All supplies are by Papertrey. Added some tiny white dots and some sprinkles of Mr. Huey. There is a linky Party going on over at Ardyths b...

This week's  Make it Monday is a really cool one - the talented Heather Nichols has a tutorial about cluster stamping - I just love how this came out: You start with the sentiment  - stamp it with Versamark and clear emboss it. Then you take small stamps and cluster them around the sentiment. Easy peasy...... Mounted the white cardbase onto a green card. The colors I took from the Cupcake Inspirations  challenge And the lay out I got from this weeks CASE this Sketch  I am also linking this card with Seize the Birthday - anything Birthday Materials: all stamps by  Papertrey  - Polka Dot Basics, Sketched Shapes, Reasons to Smile

Papertrey  7 year Anniversary - Day 3 A challenge of my linking! 7 minutes to choose 7 supplies do a project in 17 min. or less! Darn, I did not count my supplies.... whatever.....  Card one  took me 11 minutes and 56 seconds to make - grabbing some paper, ink and one stamp set did not take long and since I had plenty of time left I added the butterfly, which I also stamped Card two took me 8 minutes and  48  seconds to make - again the supplies were a non-issue and I had lots of time to add some sequins... I love quick cards :)

It's Blog Hop Day at Papertrey ! The theme is a pink card. I am having a lot of fun with that Stencil class. Today Julie Ebersole used a sticker sheet as a stencil. I don't use stickers, but I made my own sticker sheet stencil with that triangle cutting plate from Papertrey. I sponged mainly on the upper right with different pinks - just like Debby Hughes showed us on day 1 of the class. I used a fine black pen to outline parts of some triangles to give them more definition. I used two of the cut outs and stamped them with Papertrey Tiny Triangles as accents, added some sequins.  The sentiment is from Papertrey - Reasons to Smile.
