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,

Sunday Stampers Challenge

I used my Grungy tags that are tea stained and scented
with vanilla.
I stamped them with my stamps from "Close to Heart" they
are acyclic stamps.
The background is a description about, "family, friends, love".
Then stamped those words on top of their description's.
I used my Powder Puff ink from Quick Quotes to stamp
the descriptions of each word.
I used my Color Box Pigment Cat's eye, in Rose color
to stamp the words, "family, friends, love" on the top
of each tag. I used the same Cats eye, and distressed
the edges of each tag.
Thanks for visiting my site.
Love,
Deb

Sunday Stampers Challenge

My ATC is for a challenge I seen on, Ink on my Fingers
blog. The Sunday Stampers Challenge was "WORDS".

Dedicated to a New Friend

Looking at others blogs, I guess the newest thing
is to make ATC's. So I am going to dedicate my
first ATC to a dear friend that I just met a few
months ago.

We met at a Scrapbook Retreat that my Dear
Sister Paula was having in Pinkneville, Illinois.
Although I (we) have only known Cat these
short months, we have connected in such
away, that we feel we have known her a lot
longer. She is a very sweet lady, a wonderful
mother and wife.

With her husband's job though, they are going to have
to move to dear ol' London for 4 years. I know that would
be a wonderful place to move too. We will miss her
dearly. I almost feel as if she is a family member moving
away. But I wish her and her family the best.
Alright, Enough of that before I start crying, didn't mean to
make it that serious.
So here is my first ATC:


Front Side
I used a Color Box cat eye, Rose color, to distress the edges and top of
the ATC. I used a Friend stamp from "Close to Heart". I have a small
clock face under friend, to show that time is flying by
way too fast. And a small calendar under friend also, with June
circled, representing when Cat has to leave.



Back Side

I distressed the back side with the same cat's eye. I used the word "cherish". Because we do cherish her friendship.

We will miss you Cat and wish you the best and safe

traveling mercies when you go.

Huggles,

Deb
