Stamp of the Month Blog Hop- What a Hoot

Welcome to the August Stamp of the Month Blog Hop for What A Hoot

If you have come here from Pamela's Blogyou're on the right path.  This month we have over 50 amazing artists' blogs for you to visit.


What a Hoot is such a fun stamp set to work with, it's a build-an-owl set.  

Today I have a fun layout to show you featuring NEW product and What a Hoot.  



This layout features papers from the Whimsy Paper Fundamentals set (pink) as well as from Chalk It Up (lagoon).  I cut the title from Artiste then stamped some of the small images onto the title in black and flaxen ink.  



I stamped the owls using black ink, directly onto the patterned papers and card stocks, then paper pieced.  I added some silver sequins to the eyes of the large owl.  


I used the new ShinHan Twin Touch markers- Tender Pink, Cherry Pink, Turquois, Peacock Green to color and shade the sentiment.  

The August Stamp of the Month is available from August 1-30.  It is only $5 with a $50 purchase on my website!

The next blogger in our hop is Joy I know you will see amazing artwork there.  

Happy Hopping!!!

CTMH- Washi Tape Card

Do you WASHI???   Washi Tape is one of the new and super trendy products being used.  I'm not afraid to jump on the bandwagon :)  CTMH now has a Slate Polka-Dot Washi Tape (and I HOPE there are lots more to come!!!)  I also have picked up a couple others at Michaels recently. This weeks Color My Heart Color Dare is JUNIPER.  I decided to use Juniper as the accent color for my card today. I used the black banner stamp set from Artiste Kudos , CTMH's Slate Washi Tape , CTMH's Silver Shimmer Trim and a black arrow washi tape.  The sentiment is from Artiste Birthday , stamped in Juniper, then popped on foam tape. A simple card like this, called for some dressing up of the inside too.  I stamped Happy Birthday from Perfect Fit Birthday and added some Slate Washi Tape to the bottom. Head over to Color My Heart to check out the other color dare entries :)

CTMH-- September Stamp of the Month- Fall Favori

Welcome to the Close To My Heart Stamp of the Month Blog Hop for September 2012, featuring Fall Favorites   All artwork on the hop will feature Fall Favorites!  This is a set of 11 stamps and it's really making me want FALL---- NOW!!!  How cute is this set!?  If you have come here from  Susan's Blog y ou are on the right path. For my card today, I used the new Clementine paper pack, which is so versatile!  I cut the tag from Art Philosophy and stamped Fall Favorites in Brown Staz-on ink, then colored the pumpkin and leaves with my new markers.  I found that they don't blend and shade terribly well on Kraft cardstock- but the color showed up.  I added some of my favorite Burlap Ribbon to the card :) Do you think I like pumpkin pie???  Just a little bit ;) The September Stamp of the Month- Fall Favorites is available September 1-30th.  With any $50 purchase, this set is yours for $5....
