CC Designs June Release Review…

Pam Sparks17 Comments

Today the All That Scraps DT gals are reviewing stamps for the June release on the ATS blog, HERE.  I used the new Amy R Magical Wishes set…very fun sentiments for in and out!

I used the new Magnolia Doohickey’s  flower petals die from the Butterfly Dreams Tree die set for my flower… cut three, layered them up and a Lasting Impressions brad in the center.   The leafy branch on the front is a Sizzix Sizzlet die,  the leafy branch on the inside is from the Magnolia Doohickey’s Bon Voyage Foliage set.

I used the October Afternoon Thrift shop 8×8 paper pad, flower paper is from the Campfire pad,  some SU stripe twill, some Technique Tuesday twill, some cotton cord, a button,  some flower trim I purchased on etsy a couple years ago (I found it when I was going through a pile a couple weeks ago – that’s why we make piles… it’s so fun to find stuff later!!! lol),  Hero Arts small pearls, another Magnolia Doohickey’s die from the Butterfly Dreams collection called Dream tag and a scallop circle nestabilities die.

Linking my card to some challenges… Paper Sundaes Challenge blog – girly girl is the theme… Stamp Something Challenge blog – something punched (or die cut)… Stamp With Fun Challenge blog – pearls and flowers…

Here’s the stamps and stuff I used…

Stand beside her… and guide her… I miss singing these songs! Can you tell?! lol   This is what I came up with for the shoebox card party today… I LOVE this stamp!  I found it at the new stamp store 30 miles south of where I live… if you want to know about it… email me… it’s called the Craft and Hobby Connection.  The stamp is by Stampabilities… I’m calling it Lizzie Faith and Jace!  That’s our youngest daughter and DH’s two children.  Lizzie is getting close to four and Jace will be one later this month.

The postal frame is from Stampington and Co. and the Statue of Liberty is from an old Hero Arts set.  I keep my stamps!  You never know when you might need one of them!  Makes me happy! lol  Yes, the pattern paper is vintage too! hahaha  Pebbles is the brand…. 2004 or 5!  I’m sure there is a lot of knew out there that would be really fun with these stamps,  but I need to use this stuff!  ugh! lol  Martha Stewart star border punch… I think it might be hard to find…sorry I don’t have a link for most of this stuff!  The star is the smallest star from the Star Nestabilities set cut out of a thin coaster.  I did write up instructions… if you want me to email them to you,  holler!

Linking my card to some challenges… Flourishes Challenge blog– The Star Spangled Challenge… Papertake Weekly Challenge blog – Anything Goes… A Spoonfull of Sugar Challenge blog– Here Comes Summer…Inspire Me Fridays– Anything Goes… Totally Papercrafts – Summer…

I know…you’re wondering why I’m showing you the inside! lol  I ran out of time to do it up right! boo!  I love this stamp though, by DeNami Design 46K is the number on it! Wouldn’t it be fun to stamp it on red card-stock and cut out the stars and paper piece them on the blue?!

ok – I’ll shut up…have a great Friday…I’m off to the shoebox card party.  ttul!

 fa la la la la!

I used Mimi from Penny Black and pattern paper from a Christmas pad by Little Yellow Bicycle.  The little white cardinal brad is from Making Memories,  the JOY border punch is from Martha Stewart,  the border around the blue rectangle is a Fiskars border/corner punch, the little buttons are from Lasting Impressions and the music notes are a punch from All Night Media.  I did some backstitching in the holes of the scallops of the rectangle with Coats and Clark’s button/carpet thread (JoAnns).

Mimi is stamped on Papertrey select white card-stock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copic Sketch Markers. Hair – E30, 23, 25, 27, Skin – E000, 00, 21 and diluted R20 for cheeks, Coat & earmuff band – R24,  59, E07, Ear muffs & mittens – YG91, 93, 95, 97,  Boots – W3, 5, 7.  Frosted Lace stickles here and there.  The falalala stamp is from Impress rubber stamps.
