You Had Me At Woof

Well hello there again! Today I have the last card from my marathon craft day, phew that was a lot of cards. As I'm sure you know by now I love my fur babies so I was super excited when Sweet Stamp Shop came out with some doggy stamps, I'm sure you'll get sick of seeing them before I ever get sick of using them :) I'm using the Doggy Dog, You Had Me At, and Speech Bubbles sets today. I saw this adorable card by Chrissy Larson on the Sweet Stamp Shop Blog one day and just had put my spin on it.

I kept the layout of the card very similar, and the little heart eye patch on the pup that stayed for sure!

We know a pup that has an adorable patch over one of his eyes so I had his owners in mind when I made this card, his patch is dark so I went with grey ink for it. I used some patterned paper from DCWV's Pet Stack to make my 3"x4" card. Both the pup and the speech bubble are cut out and popped up on foam dots. I'm also linking this up to the Simon Says Monday Challenge: ATG. Until next time happy crafting!

You Had Me At Vino

Hello there! I have yet another card I created on my marathon craft day. I really need to have those more often, I got so much done it was awesome. Today I have a fun card I created using the You Had Me At set from Sweet Stamp Shop and the Wine & Friends set from Unity Stamp Company.

I used some nesting cloud dies to cut out the image and sentiments. The designer paper is from Fancy Pants Designs (it's the little things). The word vino is popped up on foam dots to add dimension and for a little shine I had some flat sequins I had laying around from an old shirt. Yes you know the extra ones they give you in case you want to replace one that fell off...I'm never going to do that so I just throw them in my craft stash!

Meow Meow Meow

Hello again! Today I have another card I created from my marathon crafting day. It is another super CAS card that I just love. I created the patterned background by stamping each image over and over and over again...it took awhile but I love the way it came out. I used stamps from the new Kitty Cat and You Had Me At sets from Sweet Stamp Shop (I think I have an obsession with their stamps :P).

The meow meow meow sentiment is popped up on foam dots for some dimension, the edges are also shaded with purple to add a little more pop. To create the ombre effect I just inked my stamp once and stamped it three times. I love how this card turned out and I just might try another one with a dog theme :) I'm linking this card up to the Simon Says Monday Challenge: ATG. Until next time happy crafting!

High Five Dude

Hello again! It is a gloomy rainy/sleety/snowy day today here. All the schools in the area and my husband's office were all closed because we're having a blizzard, yes a BLIZZARD the day before April 1...

Anyway, I thought I'd pop in quick and share a card I made for the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge: The one with lots of rules (really it's anything goes!). I used the new High Five and Just the Basics sets from Sweet Stamp Shop. It's a super CAS card perfect for any dog loving guy (guy cards are so hard sometimes)! I think the best part about this card was it was created with a good friend of mine that wanted to have a crafty day. So I brought out a bunch of craft supplies we just spend the entire day crafting and chatting! It was so much fun and I have a few more cards to share from the day later on.

I just love the mustache paper I had in my stash and though it was perfect for the cool high five dog paw. The paper has a little shimmer to it in person which makes the card a little more dynamic. The sentiment and the paw print are popped up on foam dots as well. I used my Stampin' Up! Bitty Banners dies and a Spellbinders circle die to cut them out. This is a super short post but I'll have a few more cards later this week. Until next time happy crafting!
