"BEE" utiful Sheena Floral Fantasy

TGIF!  Happy Friday!  We are lucky to be having a 4 day weekend that started today.  I wanted to show you a card I made using the new Sheena's Floral Fantasy EZMount Stamp Set - Violets.  

I fell absolutely in love with the gorgeous bee stamp in this set and rushed immediately to my scrap desk to stamp it out and get it colored!  I used my Spectrum Noir markers of course.  And then I decided that this little beauty needed some sparkle.

I pulled out my Star Dust Stickles and carefully added dots of glitter to each circle on the bee.  I set her aside to dry and got busy layering some purple and silver paper on to my white card stock base.  I had this fun purple and silver leopard print ribbon in my stash and it was just the perfect addition to this card.

I just love how it turned out. You need to go check out Sheena's new stamp collection.  It just launched in stores today. 

Thanks for stopping and looking.  Expect for projects coming soon using these cool stamps!  I've colored several other images now I just need to make something with them! lol

Until next time...happy scrapping (and Happy Memorial Day weekend to you folks in the US)!

Humphrey Father's Day

Happy Sunday!  I've been scrapping today and here is one of the projects I wanted to share with you.  I've made a Father's Day card for my kids to give to my hubby.  (shhhhh don't tell him!! lol)

I just had to use the Humphrey EZMount Stamp Set - Father's Day.  This set is so darn adorable.  I have been waiting patiently to use it since I received it.  I stamped out little Humphrey and colored him with my Spectrum Noir markers - TN1, TB2, TB3, TB4, TB9, GB8, GB9, IG1, IG3, GG1. 

I had some great masculine papers from Close To My Heart that just worked beautifully with my colored image.  I finished up the card with some blue flowers around the image.  I didn't want too much frou frou since I wanted to keep it masculine.  I think my hubby is going to love it!

I'm going to enter it in the Color Me Creative - Anything Goes Challenge.

AND it works perfectly for this months Crafter's Companion Masculine Challenge that is going on right now.  If you haven't already entered you need to pull out your Crafter's Companion goodies and get busy making a masculine project to share.  You could win the prize this month!

Expect more posts from me soon.  And while you are here be sure and sign up for my giveaway HERE.  Winner will be announced on May 25th.

Until next time...happy scrapping!

Camden Town Release!

Today there is a new stamp collection release at Crafter's Companion.  It is the Camden Town release!  There are two "male" stamp sets and two "female" sets.  I've decided to use a couple of the stamps from Female #1 set

 



I really loved the sweet little bird house and bird so I pulled out my favorite paper to use with my Spectrum Noir markers, the Ultra Smooth Premium White Cardstock and stamped out these two images with Tuxedo Black Memento ink.  I also stamped out the sentiment.

 



I colored them with shades of pink and rose and orange with my Spectrum Noir markers using CR1, CR2, CR4, PP1 and OR1.  I really thought that these colors would be really grounded with a bit of black.   So I added some a bit of black paper and black bow made from ribbon in my stash.

 

I think now I need to get to coloring some of the stamps from the Male sets!  They would be perfect for our Masculine Challenge this month at Crafter's Companion!    lol  Go check out these new stamps at Crafter's Companion.  And then be sure to join in the Masculine challenge this month!

 

 

 

Until next time...happy scrapping!

To end...here is a photo of my kid sitting next to me in my scrap room playing video games... 

 

He is so engrossed in the game he didn't even notice me taking the photo!!  lol  He played his final two lacrosse games of the season today.  Won one, lost one.   It will be weird to not have any more lacrosse until fall!!
