Wishing You a Happy Birthday

Welcome by again, everyone.  It's Karen Letchworth, one of the new DT Members posting again today.  I have another pretty card that I hope will inspire you.  Blank Page Muse and I Brake for Stamps both have so many AWESOME stamps to help you get creative. This card uses just one stamp set and utilizes several of the awesome images within this amazing set to show its versatility.
This card uses the following Blank Page Muse Stamp Set:
And the following Blank Page Muse Stencil:

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

You can read all the details about my card and see additional photos here on my personal blog, My Cup Runneth Over.  I'd love to have you "Follow" my blog while you're there.  I hope that my creations for these AWESOME companies are inspiring to you.

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.

Admit One!

  Hi Stamping Fans!


Today I am sharing some tags made with some leftover "masterboard" card. I made this at an art journal class I attended here in Australia - I love making background papers with paint, stencils and stamps!
I used stamps available in store on this piece of card - there are so many great little stamps to choose!
And the focal images n the tags are some fabulous vintage style stamps - perfect for small projects and adding interest to anything!


Here are links to a few I used but really there are endless choices in the stores:
Diamond Border by Pam Bray
Ornate Medallions by Michelle Frae Cummins


And for the focal images these vintage style stamps:

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.

Journal Ephemera!

 Hi Stamping Fans!

Hope you are all getting in some creative time! I've been busy working in my journals which seems to be my go to creative outlet at the moment!
So today I am sharing some quick little word and image ephemera for adding to your journal pages or you could also use them on cards and tags - whatever you want!


All supplies available in store:



I've used word stamps and small image stamps from the clear stamp sets - any words and small stamps will word from any of the huge range of stamps available in both stores!

I love the 6 x 6 paper pads by Pam Bray - I cut strips and layered them on double sided sticky paper - makes it quick and easy and less mess than glue! Plus when you cut out your pieces you can just peel off the backing and stick straight on your project!


Hope you have fun with this quick little project! We would love to see what you create so remember to tag us on social media or make sure you have joined our Facebook group so you can share your creations!
