But First, Coffee

Happy Wednesday!

I hope you're having a crafty kind of week! We are halfway through another fabulous week and nearly at the end of April! I can't believe how quickly time flies these days! Speaking of flies...LOL I wanted to share this fun card with you today! **No flies were harmed in the making of this card, but no doubt coffee was involved. LOL

I created this card using Frankie from Unity Stamps. This little guy just makes me laugh. We can all use a little laughter in our day, right? I've used this stamp quite a few time and I always try to create more than one card while I have sets out. Sometimes, I make the same card or very similar and other times, I make two completely different ones. How about you? Do you make more than one card while you have a stamp set out?

Here's my version of Frankie...

Supplies used:

• The card base is Neenah 80#.
• I stamped the image on Neenah 80# as well.
• The image and sentiment are from Frankie - a stamp set from Unity Stamps.
• Colored with Copic Markers:
• Frankie; YG09, YG17, YG67, G07
• Shadow; C2, C3, W1
• The cattails are a retired die from Spellbinders named Cattails D-Lites. I cut 2 of them and slightly over lapped them behind the image. I used black 65# card stock from my stash.
• The background papers are all from my stash of miscellaneous card stock and patterned papers.
• I used a Gelly Roll Pen to add white spots to Frankie.
• The image and sentiment were stamped using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink.
• I always use my MISTI to make sure I get a great stamped impression every time.

I had a great time creating this card and I hope you get a chuckle from Frankie. Checkout more great images and sentiments at Scrapsalot and you can find Frankie at Unity Stamps.

Vintage Vibes

Hi Crafters! 

Thanks for stopping in to check out my post! I missed an entire week of posting - I know, I know! Sometimes, life happens and we have to rearrange priorities and this past week was one of those times. Sunday before last, I was moving some bins around and I hurt my shoulder. By Monday, I was in so much pain I could hardly stand it. It hurt to move it in any direction. After a quick (haha) visit to the orthopedic ER, they confirmed I had a minor tear in my left rotator cuff. This is the absolute worst pain I have have ever experienced! #donotrecommend LOL 

I was moving bins to prepare for a craft retreat where we set up with some products from Scrapsalot. The retreat started last week on Sunday and we arrived on Wednesday. I didn't have any posts ready ahead of time - sooooo lesson learned! I need to have some ready to go and scheduled to post so when life happens, I don't have to worry about not being able to post for at least a day or two.

I'm sharing one of the cards I was able to complete at the retreat. I stay pretty busy there helping fellow crafters/shoppers and conducting a Make n Take. I hope you enjoy this card! I was thrilled to be able to incorporate one of my wax seals. I just love those! Supplies are listed below the photo.

Supplies used:

• The image is stamped on Bristol Smooth paper.
• The green layer is 65# card stock from my stash.
• The card base is Neenah 80#.
• Vintage Daisy Collage background stamp from Technique Junkies. (Scrapsalot doesn't have this in stock currently, but Technique Junkies designs will be added soon!)
• Colored with Copic Markers:
• Daisy; Y11, Y13
• Daisy Center; E25
• Small Flowers; R30
• Leaves/Stems; G40
• Moth; E42, E97
• Background; E40
• I spattered the front of the card with Hero Arts Gold Paste, 4oz. 
• White & gold twine from my stash.
• Black was seal from my stash using a bumble bee wax stamp. I used flat glue dots to hold the sting in place on the front and the wax seal on top.

I kept the coloring very simple since I wanted a faded vintage vibe for this card. I didn't use a sentiment on the front, so I can use this card in many ways. The link provided is to my online store, Scrapsalot. Other products may be found online. 

Again, I thank you for stopping by and I hope you're having a craft-filled week!

Keep it Crafty!

Tiered Tray Love

Hi Everyone! :)

Thanks for stopping in to check out my makes today! I'm in love with tiered trays and these dies from Spellbinders are right up my alley. These sets are so easy to assemble to make a great little scene. I know tiny die cuts aren't for everyone, but just look how cute these are! I also know cuteness is not a factor if tiny die cuts are not your thing. LOL But I hope you enjoy my tag and the cards anyway. ;)

I made 3 projects for today! Two cards and a tag. All of these products are from Spellbinders including the background embossing folder used on the cream colored card. Supplies are listed below and please remember my links are not affiliate links - However, they are links to my online store, Scrapsalot. This is my small business and we sell a variety of papercrafting and mixed products. If no link is provided, we do not carry it but you should be able to locate the products online and almost always on Amazon.

Supplies Used:

• Now the DIE SETS and the Stamp Set!!!

• Tiered Tray Decor from the Becky's Tiered Tray Collection by Becky Roberts
• Tiered Tray Sentiments from the Becky's Tiered Tray Collection by Becky Roberts
• **Please contact me if you are interested in this stamp and die combo as they are out of stock on my site at the time of this post. The link provided is to in stock Spellbinders products we carry. Thank you! (CLICK HERE)
• Sentiments were stamped using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink.
• The Puff Dotty 3D Embossing Folder from Spellbinders was used on the cream card background.

I inked some of the edges, the flower center and the background of the cream card with Distress Oxide in Antique Linen. I also used Distress Oxide in Frayed Burlap for the lighted brownish color used on the edges. I finished them off with a white Gelly Roll Pen (0.8) to add some additional interest.

I hope my creations inspire you to pull out some of those tiny die cuts sets you have and give them some love. :) Until next time...

Keep it Crafty!

Open Roads

Happy Thursday Crafters!

Our adventure today takes us out on the open roads winding along the seaside. This layering stamp stamp set is all about the freedom of the open road, at least for me. I love coloring layering stamp sets! It's exciting to me to see the project come to life with each layer of color. Whether building a scene like this set or layering up an image like the hummingbird in one of my earlier blogs (LINK HERE), the creations are unique and beautiful. 

Supplies and links are provided below. My links are not affiliate links, but where provided, they are links to my online store, Scrapsalot. Leave me a comment below, letting me know what you think of the cards for today.

Card #1

Card #2

Supplies:

• The images are are stamped on Hammermill 100# Premium Color Copy Cover.
• The background card stock is a woodgrain print from my stash.
• The card base is Neenah 80#.
• I always use my MISTI stamp platform when stamping cards. You will find the Original MISTI HERE and the Mini MISTI HERE.
• The stamp set is Seaside Highway HeroScape Stamp Set from Hero Arts. (CM655)
• Various inks were used as follows;
• Ground
• Light layer is Archival Wendi Vecchi Mini Ink Pad in Leaf Green.
• Dark layer is Archival Distress Mini Ink Pad in Rustic Wilderness.
• Water
• Light layer is Archival Wendi Vecchi Mini Ink Pad in Forget-Me-Not.
• Dark Layer is Archival Distress Mini Ink Pad in Prize Ribbon.
• Road
• Archival Wendi Vecchi Mini Ink Pad in Watering Can.
• Car(s), Dolphins, Sentiment
• Memento Tuxedo Black Ink Pad
• Sky for Card #1
• Blending Brushes were used to place a light layer of Archival Wendi Vecchi Ink in Forget-Me-Not.
• Sky for Card #2
• Blending Brushes were used with the Cloudy Stencil from Lawn Fawn starting with Archival Distress Mini Ink Pad in Speckled Egg. I decided that color was too dark and drab, so I quickly changed to the Archival Wendi Vecchi Mini Ink Pad in Forget-Me-Not to finish up the clouds.

These were easy to create and sometimes we just need a quick and easy card for a special occasion or just to get our crafty mojo going. Either way, I hope you enjoyed the cards for today and I hope this inspires you to pull out those layering stamps from your stash and give them a whirl. 

Until next time, Keep it Crafty!

Sunflowers

Well, Hello Sunshine!

Sunflowers always remind me of warm sunny days at my grandparents house when I was a kid. My Grandpa grew the tallest sunflowers I had ever seen. Although, I was smaller back then and maybe my perspective is a little off. LOL Either way, I loved them and thought they were the prettiest flowers ever.

Today I'm bringing you my creations using a beautiful layering stencil set from The Ton. Her stencils line up so well and creating beautiful images with them is as easy as 1, 2, 3...and maybe 4, 5, 6, 7 LOL if you have one of the large layering sets. If you've never tried a layering stencil, I assure you that you will not be disappointed with any from The Ton.

Here's a look at my cards. All four cards were create from one, yes ONE, stenciled run. What I mean by that is, the two A2 sized cards were made from the original stenciled image I created. The two slimline cards were created from the left over ink I wiped through my stencil to clean it off! How cool is that? They are lighter images since I didn't add any ink, but I think they are stunning just the same.

Here are all 4 cards together. Following this group photo, you will see each card individually.

• Sunflower Fields Layering Stencil Set from The Ton. I also used the coordinating die for the stencil set.
• The Script Hello Die used on the slimeline cards is also from The Ton. I used black and golden yellow card stock, 65#, from my stash to cut this out.
• I stamped 'hello' from the Fairy Tale Rose Stamp Set from Altenew using VersaMark Ink and heat embossed using Gold Embossing Powder from Ranger on both of the A2 cards. (This stemp set hasn't made it to the Scrapsalot online shop yet, but here's a link to similar products. Click HERE. It should be added by the time you are reading this blog. YAY!)
• The sunflowers are stenciled on Bristol Smooth paper.
• The card stock layers in black and green are 65# card stock from my stash.
• The card bases are Neenah 80#.
• The inks used are as follows:
• Light Yellow = Hero Arts Reactive Ink Cube in Lemon Drop.
• Dark Yellow = Archival Distress Mini Ink Pad in Wild Honey.
• Light Green = Archival Distress Mini Ink Pad in Rustic Wilderness.
• Dark Green = Hero Arts Hero Hues Ink Cube in Moss.
• And last, but not least, Archival Wendi Vecchi Mini Ink Pad in Potting Soil.
• I used my Pink Chrome Blending Brushes from Scrapsalot to blend the ink over the stencil.
• I finished off the slimline card with the black die cut Hello by using the Rose Gold Aqua Flow pen on it from Tonic.
• The A2 cards both have doodads from Scrapsalot - one has clear dew drops and the other has flat yellow/green sequins. *These will both be available soon at Scrapsalot!
• For the A2 cards, I cut the stenciled image in half vertically and trimmed to fit the card front.
• For the slimline cards, I cut the image horizontally and trimmed to fit the slimline designs you see above.

I appreciate you stopping by and checking out my creations! Links provided above are to my online papercrafting store, Scrapsalot. Other items, not linked, may be found online in various places and almost always on Amazon. Thank you for supporting me and my small business and for reading my blog!

Until next time, Keep it Crafty!

Cozy Kitty

Hi Crafty Friends!

Today, I'd like to share this cute little cozy kitty with you that I used to make a sweet birthday card. I used a lot of different Copic Markers and I'll list them out below stating what colors I used for the different elements of the image. 

I thought the colors in my glittery cat ears matched the card perfectly so I couldn't resist taking that first photo. LOL The second is a closer view and then the final photo is the card alone. Let's take a look...

Supplies are as follows:

• For Mom Stamp Set from Colorado Craft Company
• The image is stamped on Hammermill 100# Premium Color Copy Cover.
• The pink layers are 65# card stock from my stash.
• The card base is Neenah 80#.
• The image and sentiment are stamped with a Memento Tuxedo Black Ink Pad.
• Copics used:
• Dishes: C1, C2
• Tray: E13, E34
• Napkin: C1, C2, RV00
• Leaf/Stem: G07, YG45
• Rose: R08, R17, R35
• Vase: BG13, BG32
• Fish: B91, B41
• Teapot: E01, R01, R11, RV10
• Kitty: YR12, YR15, YR21
• Pillow: RV00, RV02, RV10, R81
• Comforter/Quilt: RV11, RV32, R81, R83

I only have one item linked to my store in the list above. We do not currently carry Colorado Craft Company Products. However, if you'd like to see them in our store in the future, let me know in the comments. We work very hard to bring you stamps and other papercrafting goodness that you can't just pickup at your local big box stores. Don't get me wrong, we do carry some of the same items, but many are very different. We can't possibly stock everything out there so I like to hear from you - who you love, what brands and what type of products you're on the lookout for. Check out what we carry here, at Scrapsalot! :)

Well, that's all I have today my crafty friends. Until next time, Keep it Crafty!

Hot Stuff!

Happy Monday!

Thanks for stopping in to check out the cards for today! They are on FIRE and I LAVA them a lot. See what I did there? This is a color layering stamp set and it was so fun and easy to create these HOT cards. I hope you like them too.

The set has two layers for both the volcano and the lava. The smoke is a single layer stamp but you have two different ones to choose from. I did find this set worked best on a landscape A2 or larger sized card base. It's not super large, but it was too big, in my opinion, to use on a portrait A2 card.

Anywho, let take a look at this card making HOTTNESS! LOL Details on products used follow the cards below. Links provided are not affiliate links. However, they are links to my online store named, Scrapsalot. More details about Scrapsalot are provided below and I thank you all in advance for supporting my small business. Items without links can be found online in various places and almost always on Amazon.

• The images are stamped on Hammermill 100# Premium Color Copy Cover.
• The black card stock is from stash, likely Recollections 65#.
• The white card base is Neenah 80#.
• The stamp set used is the Color Layering Volcano HeroScape set from Hero Arts. It can be found HERE.
• For the volcano image, I used a Smokey Quartz Dye Ink Cube from The Ton as the light color and Memento Tuxedo Black Ink Pad as the darker top layer. 
• For the Lava, I used Hero Arts Core Ink in Butter Bar and Ranger Archival Ink, Wendy Vecchi in Carnation Red.
• I stamped the sentiment with the Memento Tuxedo Black Ink Pad. The sentiment is part of this set.
• Now, I had a couple of white spots in the lava where I didn't quite line up the layers very well. That's ok those because I used my Copics to fill it in. I picked a yellow (Y08) and a red (R05) that matched pretty close and lightly touched the white areas. *The areas were so tiny though, you could use just about any shade and it would still blend right in.

• In addition to the same supplies I used on card #1, I added Crystal Pewter Dye Ink from The Ton for the smoke.
• The sentiment is from the same stamp set and I used the same Archival Red Carnation Ink that was also used for the lava to stamp it.

• The same supplies were used on card #3. I did, however, decide to matte this one red card stock from my stash.

I always use my MISTI stamping platform when making cards so I can make sure I get a great stamped image every time. When I'm making cards like these, with multiple layers, I always go ahead and make at least two while I have the stamps out and lined up. Why not, right? Here's a link to the MISTI.

Color layering can be tricky, and you can end up with misaligned images. I've learned to use my Copic Markers or colored pencils to fill in any white gaps. I've even used a fine tip paint brush and the ink color used to fill in where needed. You can even tell and the cards look great. So if you have any color layering stamp sets sitting in your stash, I encourage you to pull them out and try them again today! Let me know in comments if you do the same thing or something different to tidy up your images.

As mentioned earlier, Scrapsalot is my small business. We carry many brands of stamps, dies, inks and other mediums for all of your creative needs. We also carry scrapbooking paper and embellishments. If you don't see something you're looking for, just ask and I can let you know if we carry that particular item. We are only online, except for when we attend local papercraft shows. We are located in Central Florida on the Gulf Side of the state. We strive to keep shipping costs low and we're happy to do local meetups if you're in the area.

That's it for today. Thanks again for stopping by and checking these out! Until next time, Keep it Crafty!

Little Hummingbird

 Hi Everyone!

Thanks for stopping by! I've got a great card to share with you today and I owe it all to my son, Joey. So, before we get to the card details, let me tell you a little about this adventure in crafting, as I call it. My son came by earlier this week and said, 'When are you going to start streaming and uploading videos?'. Now, he asks me every so often because I literally just disappeared from YouTube and another Blog I previously started. I've been 'planning' the restart for far too many years now. Yes, years. LOL Procrastination is our worst enemy, am I right??!!

Anyway, his inquiry got me thinking...no time like the present, as they say. So, here we are! A brand new Blog with brand new posts to share with you. I will also start live streaming and working on those video uploads too! 

Without further ado, if you've read up to this point, here is the card creation for today...

I made this card at a craft retreat for a dear friend's birthday after forgetting her original card at home! Have you ever done that? You make or buy a card for someone and then forget it or misplace it - ugh, I'm really good at that! LOL But I believe this one turned out pretty nice and I know she loves hummingbirds. :)

To make this A2 card, I used two Hero Arts stamp sets, Copic markers, ink pads/cubes, and some bling from my stash. Links to items or similar items are located below. The links provided are to my online store, Scrapsalot. Other items, not linked may be found online and usually through Amazon too. Here's a specific list of what I used to create this card:

• The images are are stamped on Hammermill 100# Premium Color Copy Cover.
• The background card stock is a woodgrain print from my stash.
• The card base is Neenah 80#.
• The hummingbird is from the Hero Arts Color Layering Hummingbird Stamp Set (CM498)
• Stamped using Hero Hues Reactive Ink Cube in Pool Party and Hero Arts Core Ink Cubes in Amethyst and Pink Grapefruit.
• The beautiful flowers are from the Hero Arts & Gina K Friendship Blooms Collab Stamp Set (PR101)
• Stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink.
• Colored with Copic Markers, using T0, T1, RV00, RV10, RV21, RV23, YG45, YG63, G07 & G46.
• The sentiment is part of the Color Layering Hummingbird Stamp Set and is stamped with Hero Arts Core Ink in Amethyst.
• The silver bling is from stash. They are adhesive flat back silver dots, but I no longer have the packaging.

Here's a link to Scrapsalot in case you'd like to take a look at the supplies and crafty goodness we carry. :) If you'd like to learn more about my Scrapsalot adventure, let me know in the comments.

I'd also like to thank all of my crafty friends for their support and encouragement in getting things started again. :) It's takes a village and sometimes we all just need a little...or a BIG nudge in the right direction.

Thank you again for stopping in and checking out this card on my Blog. I appreciate your comments and inquiries so please feel free to comment below and also ask any questions you may have.

That's all for now - until next time, Keep it Crafty!
