Pumpkins and more Pumpkins!

 Pumpkins and more Pumpkins!

It's Sue here bringing on the pumpkins!


I do like all pumpkins in the fall, and this pumpkin trio stencil from Blank Page Muse fits the bill. For this card I only used the big pumpkin from the stencil but there are actually three on the stencil.
I used Pearl White stencil butter for this card.  It's a smoother style texture paste that does go on like butter.  It comes in lots of colors but I only have a couple but, you know, you can always shop at Blank Page Muse to get whatever color you like.

How to Create a Watercolor Stamped tag

 Hello!  Chris here today and  I am excited to share this colorful tag I created using both rubber and clear stamps! How fun it was to mix both kinds of stamps on my project.




I started by layering distress inks on my surface. 

After spritzing inks with a bit a water I laid my tag into the ink. 


Just look at the gorgeous colors! 


I then grabbed two of my favorite stamp sets. 

I Brake for Stamps Florals Sheet Flowers for you Bouquet Happy Birthday Thank you SB132B

Using the  Florals Sheet Flowers for you Bouquet Happy Birthday Thank you SB132B  from I Brake for Stamps, I stamped the floral image repeatedly onto the tag and then heat embossed the images.


Grabbing my Beyond the Border Mixed Media Set 1 CLEAR Stamps designed by Pam Bray from Blank Page Muse, I stamped two borders onto the tag. You can see the first border below. 

I finished my tag by matted the tag onto black cardstock and then adding a die cut butterfly and a die cut "hello" 

I hope you are inspired to get creative with your stamps and papers from Blank Page Muse and I Brake For Stamps.  Don't forget to use my discount code BPMChris.

One Stamp, Three Ways

Hello! Welcome back to the BPM blog!
This is my first post here as a DT member. I am so glad to be a part of the team. 

As the title of this post says, today's project is all about using a stamp in different ways.
This is a  great way to stretch out your supplies. 


I used the following BPM stamps on this project:

Floral Spray Sunflowers Chrysanthemum Words Border Art Rubber Stamp Set-The large floral spray from this set is the stamp I used on all three cards.


Beyond the Border Mixed Media Set 1 CLEAR Stamps-I used a border stamp from this set on the monochromatic card.


The three ways I used the floral bundle stamp are:

  • I stamped it on a blended portion of the front panel of the card as seen on the photo above. Great technique for a one layer card. If you are not into coloring, this is one way of using those detailed stamps that looks intimidating to color. 

  • I stamped and colored the image with Copic markers as seen on the card below.

  • I embossed the image on vellum as seen on the bottommost photo. This card has a happy turn out. If you are curious to know it, please visit my blog and you will find out. 

I hope today's project inspires you.

I used some old Doodlebug patterned papers and a piece of white cardstock.  I used several colors of Tim Holtz Oxide Inks to stencil my fun background using the Butterfly Trails Stencil.  All the other images you see on the background (confetti, balloons, sentiment) are found in the Special Day Birthday Hugs Stamp Set by Pam Bray

Sunflower Wishes

Hey there, friends!

It’s creative team member Walter back on the Blank Page Muse blog today.  The sunflower is a definite symbol of summer and early fall.  I’ve always enjoyed them - they stand so tall basking in the sun and gently swaying in the breeze.  They also happened to be a favorite flower of my mom.  She always enjoyed a sunflower bouquet; they always made her smile.  Today’s card, Sunflower Wishes, was inspired by her and is dedicated to the memory of her.


Sunflower Wishes was made with the following items:


The gold embossed sentiment really stands out and shines against the purple card stock, as does the gold butterflies.


The butterfly sits so nicely on the sunflower and serves of a reminder that those we lose are always around us.

You may learn more about my creative process on my blog.

Gnome and Pumpkins

Hello it's Sue

This month it all about the Gnome and pumpkins!
I was never a fan of gnomes before,  but this guy with a pumpkin in hand has grown on me. 

You just have to take one look at him to love him. This card is in the classic black and white style, that I am liking lately.  In both cards I used prisma color pencils to color the gnome.
But I also had to do him in colors, too.  Check out the background of these cards ... do you see all those pumpkins?  That is a stencil and we all know that stencils are a great tool to use in our card making.

Check out my blog for more details here .

How to Create a Funny Masculine Card

Greetings! Chris here today I am excited to share this funny masculine card I created for my dad's birthday!  As the oldest daughter of an avid fisherman (with no sons), my dad and I spent lots of time fishing over the years.  While we don't get to fish together as much as we use to, I know he will love this card.  because what else do kids do but wait for dad to find the fish and then steal their spot!  



To create this card I paired the Fishing Spot stamp set from I Brake for Stamps with papers from  the Cyan Consortium 6x6 inch sheets Paper Pack designed by Pam Bray.  


After stamping my image onto stamping paper, I colored my images with watercolor markers and a water brush. You can see below how the image comes to life. 



I matted the colored stamping and sentiment onto my Cyan Papers .
I then cover my card base with a map tissue paper.  

I added a scrap of burlap and then layered my images to complete my card. 

I hope you are inspired to get creative with your stamps and papers from Blank Page Muse and I Brake For Stamps.  Don't forget to use my discount code BPMChris.

Card & Envelope Set Using Digital Printed Paper

 Hello! Welcome back to my blog. Today's project's focus is on the use of printable digital paper. Although I am not new to this, this is the first time I have used one on a project. 



This digital download is by Blank Page Muse:
Digital Download Fall Teal Flowers & Leaves 

The download offers three zipped files. I am using the 8x11 file and a half sheet file for my project.

I printed the full page image on a light weight cardstock. This is what I used for the envelope. I minimized the margin to 0, hoping I can print the image edge to edge. But it didn't print that way. There was still an eighteenth of an inch margin around the image. I used Microsoft Word to print my images.

Click here for the full tutorial.
