Sunday Stamper's Challenge

This weeks Sunday Stamper's Challenge is "This old heart of mine." Here are my takes of using heart stamps.

Meet my handsome wonderful son, Curtis and his beautiful bride, Cassie. That is a picture from their wedding. I hand stitched the birds and branches onto the page. I stamped the hearts using red StazOn. The "leaf" hearts are Stamp Craft stamps, the larger hearts are from the Studio "g" series for Kolette Hall. The photo corners and die cut are stickers from "The Love Card stock stickers" from Flair designs. Then I added the pom poms and vintage rick rack.

I took this tag and painted it gold with acrylic paint, then stressed it with Rangers Tea distress pad. I stamped the hearts with the Studio "g" stamps and hand stitched the glass beads on the bottom hearts. I used my Stamp Craft markers to color the hearts in . Added the beautiful young lady from my stash and then added the fibers. I distressed the edges with the Ruby Cats Eye.

Have a wonderful weekend,

The Artistic Stamper

The June Challenge for The Artistic Stamper was Animals. I have finally finished mine, I was afraid I was late, and then seen that they extended it for people like me that's running behind. hehe

These are pictures of my beautiful Dachshund, Hollie Girl. The pictures were taken this Spring, she is 2 1/2 years old. I used my Stamp Craft Stamps to stamp the dog with bone and the paw prints onto the background paper with brown and black Stazon. I used my Stamp Craft markers to color the dog and bone in. The papers, vellum, embellishments, and stickers are all from Markings, by C.R. Gibson Collections.

Thanks for stopping by,

In My Pocket Challenge

Over at Ink on my Fingers - Hels new "In My Pocket Challenge" the theme was Buttons. You have to draw and make sure your pocket is 7"long X 3.75" wide. The only other rule is that you have to HIDE the theme inside of the pocket. You fold your card over at the 3" mark, and that's your pocket.

This is the front of my pocket. I took Quick Quotes Powder Puffs Bloody Mary and distressed and colored the background of the card stock. Then with Stazon I stamped the whole card with my Paris Moments Collage Stamp, from Hampton Art Stamps. I then colored them in with Derwent watercolor pencils and Stamp Craft Markers. I had some Vintage Wallpaper that I cut the stitching off of for the front panel, I used Prima paper flowers and Making Memories Brads. The tab and Charm are held on with the Brads

The inside was also distress and colored with the Powder Puffs. I also used the Paris Collage Stamp to stamp the background of the inside of the Pocket, then colored the stamp in with the same pencils and markers. I distressed the post cards, envelope, letter, and couple with Powder Puffs. Paris is from the Vintage Wallpaper, is also distressed with Powder Puffs. The collage papers are from Red Lead Paper Works - Mica Charm Collage Image Sheets. I used the Prima flowers on the inside also, along with Vintage Buttons from an Estate sale on the inside of my flap.

Hope you are having a great Sunday!

God Bless,
