August Stamp of the Month - Feather Together

The stamp set that everyone voted on and the one that won was Feather Together.  This stamp set was a challenge but I am pleased by how they turned out.  This stamp set was a two stamp stamping and really was a lovely stamp set.  I also liked how many greetings were also included in the stamp set.

 Here is the first card that I came up with, Think of You with a Pacific Point Base & Smokey Slate Layer.  The feathers were stamped in Pacific Point, Melon. Mambo, Rich Razzelberry and Hello Honey.  Next cut out the feathers and attach to the card by using a dimension and rhinestone.

 Now for the second card, because the feathers are a two step stamping I stamped the first feather image in Cajun Craze and then stamped it again in Cajun Craze BUT stamped it off the second time for some of the feathers.  I wanted a random arrangement of the feathers, so for some of the feathers I stamped off with Chocolate Chip ink. 

 The third card featured a Smokey Slate card base with a Marina Mist layer.  I wanted just a simple birthday card so I stamped 3 feathers but made each one a little different.  The two step stamping made this task very easy as each feather is slightly different.

The last card that was included in the kit.  I was thinking of feathers which made me think of a feather pillow fight.  This is how this card was born!  Random feathers everywhere.

I hope that you enjoyed the stamp of the month and will join us in just a few days to vote on the September Stamp of the Month.  The card kits are available for $24; this includes the stamp set and everything that you need to make the four cards above. 

Happy Stamping!
Cindy

August Kit Card Class

I haven't forgotten to show you the August Kit Cards, my little sweethearts were over this past week and it is kind of hard to get alot done!  I wonder why that is?!!

I have some great cards to share with you, so let's get to it!!


Our first card is just a cheerful kind of card that you sometimes need to send someone just to let them know that you are thinking of them. The stamp set that we used is Flourishing Phrases, I think the card just really was great with the flower buds stamped in Flirty Flamingo on Flirty Flamingo Card Base.

 Our second card is such a cute card, these two little raccoons are just peeking in to say Happy Birthday.  The stamp set for the greeting is so popular right now and is from the Tin of Cards.  The little guys are from the Foxy Friends stamp set.

 Our next card is a baby card, and I am in love with this three step stamp Teddy Bear.  The white doily is a great addition.  The stamp set is called Baby Bear.

 Our next card is a sympathy card using the Petite Petals stamp set and the Flourishing Phrases stamp set.  What a easy card to make when you use the Blooms and Bliss Designer Series paper.

 Our last card is a beautiful card using the Jar of Love stamp set and matching framelits.  I just love this card, the color combination is perfect and the Pop of Pink Designer Series paper adds just the right amount of pop!!

I hope that you have enjoyed the Kit Class Cards, below is the listing for the stamp sets that were used.

August Technique - Plastic Wrap & Reinkers

Another fun technique was shared and learnt at our August Technique Classes.  Plastic Wrap & Reinkers, what fun!!  I always smile when I see the reaction of the ladies when I announce that I went to the kitchen to get the supplies needed to make our technique class.

The Plastic Wrap and Reinkers create a "tie-dye" background on our Whisper White cardstock.  By starting with a plastic lid (we used cottage cheese lids) and adding a couple drops of reinker (we kept each color separate by using a separate lid for each color); taking our plastic wrap and scrunching it together and dabbing it in the ink.  By dabbing the plastic wrap all over the plastic lid, distributed the ink so that we didn't have blobs of ink in only one place.  You want to have even color distribution, it just makes for a nicer card.

Let's get started!!

Card #1 - Happy Birthday to a Classic!  (I am thinking I will be using this card for my husband's birthday in September, he is definitely a classic!  LOL!)

Stamp Sets:  Country Living, Birthday Blossoms
Ink:  Memento Black; Reinkers--Soft Sky, Pink Pirouette, Daffodil Delight (for sky), Mink Macaron (for grass); Markers--Dapper Denim, Marina Mist, Mint Macaron, Grey, Black, Hello Honey
Paper:  Marina Mist Base, Dapper Denim Layer & 4 x 2 3/4 piece for layer of truck piece, Whisper White 3 3/4 x 5 & 3 3/4 x 2 1/2 (for truck)
Accessories:  Dimensions, Denim Ribbon, Wink of Stella

Helpful Hints:  I found that using lighter colors is best so that you do not have the "muddy" look and by dabbing the ink on the plastic lid also kept blotches from happening.

Card #2 - Puppy Friends

Stamp Set:  Bella & Friends (I just love this stamp set!!)
Ink:  Black; Reinkers--Pear Pizzazz & Garden Green; Markers--Melon Mambo, Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie, Tempting Turquoise
Paper:  Pear Pizzazz Base, Whisper White Layer & 3x3 piece for puppy, Garden Green layer 3 1/8 x 3 1/8
Accessories:  Dimensions, Wink of Stella-Gold, Green Sequins

Card #3 - Festive Fun Fold - Happy Birthday!

Stamp Set: Better Together, Timeless Textures
Ink:  Black, Melon Mambo
Paper:  Melon Mambo Main Base 5 1/2 x 4 1/4, & 4 1/4 & 2 1/4 (scored at 4" for flap); Sparkle Designer Series paper 2 5/8 x 3 1/2 and Pop of Pink Designer Series Paper 2 x 3 3/4, Whisper White 2 3/8 x 3 1/4 (front) & 2 1/4 x 3 1/8 (inside)
Accessories:  Gold Star Sequins, Star Embossing Folder

This is a pretty easy fold, the Melon base is only 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 and has the Black layer taped to it, taking the other Melon piece, glue the scored flap behind the main Melon base.  It will have the Happy Birthday sentiment taped to only half of it so that when you raise this piece you will see the inside sentiment.  We glued star sequins to add just the right amount of bling to our black embossed layer.

There you have it!  Another technique in the books, I hope that you like it and will want to try it at home on your own.  Join me next month for the September Technique class, our technique will be Faux Illusion.  Just in time for fall, won't this be fun!!  Can't wait to show you how it is done!

As always, thanks for stopping in!
Cindy
