Oh My Goodies 01

This card features the new  Striped Scallop Framelit and the really cute Oh My Goodies stamp set.  The framelit is very easy to use but you need to put wax paper between your die and the card stock.  Then you can gently pull it away.  (If you don’t use the was paper it will still come apart – just not as easily!)  I embossed the sentiment with Basic Black embossing powder and die cut it with the Modern Deco Framelits.  The strip down the side is the Sweet Sadie washi tape over some Basic Black card stock.  Use your bone folder to burnish it down.  Add some Glimmer paper stars and you’re ready to go!

Supplies

Stamp set – Oh My Goodies

Cardstock – Crumb Cake, Basic Black, Silver Glimmer paper

Ink – Versamark

Etc – Striped Scallop framelit, Modern Deco Framelit, star punch, Sweet Sadie washi tape, Black embossing powder

 

I am in the process of having my blog moved (by Angel Elmer!) from one platform to another so if things seem a bit wonky, this is why.  (Not to mention, I’m learning a new system!)  Hugs, Fran

He’s decked out to play in the snow with his snappy scarf.  The sentiment is from Christmas Messages (131790/131793)which is still available!  It’s a great sentiment for this card

Here’s a new set called Hot Diggity Dog (page, wood 134021/clear 134024) with a new DSP – Confetti Celebrations! (133692)  I used the Label Card Framelit to make him “flip.”

When I do the inside label, I try to leave enough space below the sentiment to write – at least – a name!  If you want to say more, you can do another label that will hide behind behind the first. I decorated the strip of Strawberry Slush with some little dog bones.

Supplies
Stamp Set – Hot Diggity Dog
Cardstock – Basic Gray, Whisper White, Strawberry Slush, Confetti Celebration DSP
Ink – Memento Tuxedo Black, Pistachio Pudding
Etc – Label Card Framelit, Tangelo Twist ribbon, Neutral Candy Dots, Brights Candy Dots

I think I need the “cat” set too   Hugs, Fran

It’s bright, isn’t it?  I used the new Sizzix Thinlit dies, Little Letters, and the numbers from the File Tab Edgelit die to create this card.  File Tab Edgelits only has the numbers 1-3, so if you can use that combo you can combine it with the letters.  The Word bubble is from Age Awareness. 

Supplies
Stamps – Age Awareness
Cardstock – Tempting Turquoise, Pumpkin Pie, Strawberry Slush, Rich Razzleberry, Delightful Daffodil, Whisper White, Sweet Taffy DSP
Ink – Memento Tuxedo Black
Etc – Little Letters and File Tab Edgelit dies, retired arrow punch, Dotty embossing Folder, Strawberry Slush cotton ribbon, 1 3/4 circle punch, Word Bubble Framelit

I keep forgetting to order the new arrow punch!  Hugs, Fran

Dotty Angles 01

Just playing around with some new stamps!  The background on this card is done with Dotty Angles – a new photopolymer stamp.  I stamped it first in Strawberry Slush and then stamped it again without reinking.  The next color is Blushing Bride and then Pink Pirouette.  The sentiment is from Fabulous Four – which is aptly named because it’s fabulous!  I used some of the new 1/4″ cotton ribbon and the new Fun Flower punch as an accent.

Supplies
Stamp Sets – Dotty Angles, Fabulous Four
Cardstock – Blushing Bride, Strawberry Slush, Whisper White
Ink – Jet Black Stazon, Strawberry Slush, Blushing Bride, Pink Piouette
Etc – Fun Flower punch, 1/4″ Cotton ribbon, Soft Subtle button

It’s fun to play around with new stuff!  Hugs, Fran

I stamped these placemats with Larger Than Life Alphabet & Numbers and Stazon ink!  After seeing many placemats done with cute sayings on Pinterest and Etsy, I thought I’d give it a try.  I purchased some cotton/poly blend placemats – ones that have a very flat weave – and stamped away! 

Here are some “tips” – use a Stamp a ma jig.  I know that these are photopolymer stamps – but you need to stamp them 4-5 times and a Stamp a ma jig makes sure you are stamping exactly over the letters.  And make sure your Stazon pad in well inked.  Fun, fun, fun!  Hugs, Fran
