All That Scraps May Preview, day 1…

Pam Sparks17 Comments

That time of the month… NEW stamp release from All That Scraps!  Today the DT is showcasing the new images,  Cute Birgitta, Stone Wall and Lamppost. Click HERE to go the the All That Scraps blog to see the other DT gal’s fabulous creations! Be sure to add your name to the linky tool for a chance to win these stamps!

I used the new Lamppost for a Christmas card!  I know, crazy! lol  I just associate lampposts with carolers at Christmas… so my next card with the post will be for Spring,  since I got the Christmas one out of my head! lol  I used the bow from a Sugarplums stamp kit, I don’t see it in the store anymore and a couple sentiments from  Amy R’s Christmas sentiment sets… I’ll link them below.

The bow is colored with R02, 05, 08 and E07,  the post is colored with the Warm Grays.  The pattern paper and card-stock stickers are from Basic Grey’s Jovial pack.  I used the largest Labels One die from the newest size set. Edged everything with ink and the ink blending tool.  Added a couple pine branches from the Martha Stewart punch.

Inside I cut the Magnolia Doohickey’s Vintage tag die (link below) and stamped the sentiment on it and used a few of the card-stock stickers again from the Jovial paper kit.

I’m linking my card to the Crafty Hazelnuts Christmas Challenge blog… use a little yellow.

Stamp “stuff” I used on this card…

Thanks for stopping by!  Don’t panic… lots of days before Christmas! : ))

Penelope and Fibonacci…

Pam Sparks20 Comments

I LOVE Amy Young’s Sweet November Penelope and Darby images…now there is Briar too! Three new wonderful, charming and delightful images (and their pals) in the April CC Designs release.  You can see more of the fabulous design team creations HERE and HERE. I used Penelope and Fibonacci… link at the end of my post.

I stamped on Beckett Expression Super Smooth 80# cover Card-stock  with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored with Copic Sketch Markers… ok – I got a little carried away with that E87  around the stem… I am loving the new E80’s markers… crazy… I know,  they weren’t “quite” the right colors for this pattern paper but… I’m stuck in a rut of using the YG90’s and the two new E80’s! ugh!  oh well, she’s a doll and I’ll have to do her up in more girly, sweet colors another time!  You’ll see when you go look at the links above!

copic colors used…

  • skin – E000, E00, E21
  • cheeks – R20 diluted with R00 refill and E00 to soften the edges
  • hair – YR30, 31, 21, 23, 24
  • dress – E81, YG93, 95, E87
  • shoes – E81, 87
  • stem – E43, 44, 47
  • toadstool head – E 40, 41, 42, 43 and R02, 05, 08
  • Fibonacci – E40’s and E80’s

The sentiment is from Amy R’s Get Well sentiment set… link below. Not sure why I couldn’t get the sentiment to photo clearly but it stamps and looks wonderful IRL!

I edged all the papers with Antique Linen Distress Ink and the Ink Blending Tool.

Linking up to the following… Cute Card Thursday Challenge blog… Weather Inspired is their theme right now… FUN!  Stamp Something Weekly Challenge blog…April Showers is their theme. Copic Creations Challenge blog… your favorite copic coloring card-stock.

April NEW Review…

Pam Sparks23 Comments

Here’s Tulip Birgitta on the Spring Bench…both are new stamps for April from CC Designs at All That Scraps.com. I stamped them on PaperTrey Ink white card-stock with Memento Black Ink and colored with Copic  Sketch Markers and a couple Promarkers on the Tulip.  The image is die cut with Rectangle nestabilities. Have you tried the new Copic Sketch Marker colors yet?  I love them!  Today I used two, E81 and 87… love them!  They blend in great with the YG 90’s!

  • Hair – E50, 53, 55, itty bitty touches of 57
  • Skin – E000, 00, 01, 21
  • Cheeks – diluted R20 (diluted with R00 refill)
  • Dress – E81, YG 90’s, E87
  • Shoes – E 42, 43, 44
  • Bench – E 40’s
  • Grass – YG 90’s and E 80’s
  • Pinks – Promarkers Bush and Sunkissed Pink and Copic R22

Martha Stewart Butterfly punch…punched twice out of green and pink and layered…very thin strip of brown card-stock for the body and antennae…Parisian Accents Spellbinders border cut four times and layered up for a chipboard effect.  I embossed the top one while still in the die and then touched it with the Blush Promarker on the high points.  The pattern paper is from the new Butterfly Garden set by Pink Paislee.

I’m linking my card up to the Lollipop Crafts Challenge blog…this week the theme is “all girl”! Sweet!

Stamps and stuff I used to make this card…



Hope you’re having a great week!   Our Central air for the main floor went out so we’re getting a new one installed…that means cleaning the basement! blech!  It will be SO worth it in the end! : )  Gotta keep cool! lol

Day #4 April Release…

Does she make you laugh?  She makes me chuckle…she looks sweet but kinda on the tough/tomboy side of sweet!  Like…  my mom made me dress up and hold this balloon! lol  Meet Little Loli,  one of two new images from the Love Lolita line by  CC Designs and available Sunday, April 3rd at All That Scraps.com, HERE.

I stamped her on PaperTrey Ink white card-stock with Memento Tuxedo Black dye ink and colored her with Copic Sketch Markers.
  • hair – E50, 41, 43, 44, 47, 49
  • skin – E000, 00, 01
  • cheeks – R20, 21, 22
  • eyes – E23, 25, 27
  • dress, socks, shoes – R20, 21, 32
  • ground and shadow – W0, 1, 3, 5

I created the card and paper pieced her heart with the Hazel paper pad.  The sentiments are from parts of two stamps inked up with Versafine and stamped with the stamp a ma jig. I like to use the little square Versafine stamp pad for this… it’s really easy to get in and ink up just what you want!  Flowers are from Hero Arts with Bazzill Bitty brads in the center, that I colored with Copic marker R21.  The pink flower layer is the EK Success small Retro Flower punch.  For the corners of the scallop rectangle nestability, I used some old Making Memory button brads and colored them with Copic marker R21 too.  I used a regular nestability and cut her out of the box.  The cute little banner cuts at the top and the bottom are from a NEW CC Designs banner die set the gals will be showing tomorrow and will be released Sunday, April 3rd too.

Below are the links to the products I used on this card… hope you find it helpful… it looks nice but I’m curious what you think!  Christine has been busy adding lots of new in the store,  HERE… stamps, paper pads… lots!!!

Have a great weekend! Looks like Spring! ttul!
