Stamp Time Somewhere

OSAT Blog Hop - It's Spooktacular!

 Hi there! Welcome to this month's One Stamp At A Time Blog Hop - our theme this month is a stamping Spooktacular. The projects today should bring you lots of fun, Halloween inspiration!

 

Before I show you my projects, I figured I might share my inspiration with you! I saw the CUTEST Halloween line of products at my grocery store this year, and I LOVED the soft color combo. While it might not be very traditional for Halloween, it sure is sweet!

First up is a simple little card - 

 I cut the main image rectangle from the Stitched Rectangle Dies and stamped the cute little bats from To Every Season in Memento Ink before coloring the background with my Highland Heather Blend. I also created my own Soft Seafoam ribbon by coloring the Silver Edge Metallic Ribbon with my Soft Seafoam Blend! 

 My favorite part of this project by far is the little treat boxes I came up with!!! I seriously love them and want to keep creating more and more ideas with this Mini Curvy Keepsake Box Die!!! I did forgo adding the cute little faces so that they were a little more versatile in who the recipient might be.

EEEEP! SO STINKIN' CUTE!!! Allow me to introduce you to:

Halloween Kitty

Not quite a "black cat", more like a sweet little gray kitten - there had to be one in the mix. Her ears and nose are made from the star tag die in the Mini Curvy Keepsake Dies.

Halloween Vampire Bat

Not sure a Highland Heather mini Bat is very scary, but check out those fangs and wings! The fangs were cut from the edges of the bat punch in the punch pack, and the wings were 1" circle punches with snipets taken out by the 3/4" punch and the top of the heart punch from the punch pack as well!

Halloween Spooky Spider

 Also a little gray spider, his legs were cut from the corners of the square tag from the die set.

Halloween Frankie

 I think he is SO CUTE! I cut just the top of the curvy die from Basic Gray, so I knew I would have the right shape, then just gave it a little haircut! See his little bolts? Bat punch from the punch pack again!!! 

Halloween Punkin'

 I might need a whole patch of these little sweeties! I used my Petal Pink Blends to create the lines on the pumpkin, and the Soft Sea Foam Blend again on the ribbon "leaves"

 I hope that I have inspired you to play a little today and create. Make sure you check out the whole hop for even more inspiration.

OSAT Blog Hop - Welcome to our Holiday

 Hi there!!!! Welcome back! Hope you are having a good day. Hopefully you are also enjoying this month's One Stamp At A Time Blog Hop. We are hoping to inspire you with lots of great ideas from the Stampin' Up! 2019 Holiday Catalog.

 This is by far one of my favorite Holiday Catalogs ever! There are gorgeous suites and tons of inspiration. 

 Today I thought I would start out with a little Fall project. I like finding versatility with my stamp sets and when I saw the Frosted Foliage bundle, i knew I would be able to make not only some great Christmas projects, but Fall ones as well.

    I love the rich colors in the Come to Gather Designer Series Paper and used it for my inspiration. I stamped the Birch Background stamp in Crumb Cake ink on a piece of Crumb Cake card stock, then ran it through my die cut machine with the Subtle 3D embossing folder for some extra texture. The sentiment is embossed with Copper Embossing powder. I sent the layer with the sentiment through twice to create the small die cut. I love the little extra that the Copper Foil and Copper embossing adds.

 

    This cute little box  was made with our new Mini Curvy Keepsakes Box. Isn't it adorable? It is so tiny, but it fits a Lindt chocolate truffle perfectly. I wanted it to coordinate with the card, so I stamped it the same as above.

  *Here is a little tip if you want to stamp the die after you cut it, cover the area you don't want stamped (like the bottom)with a Post It note.

 I also found that if you take your Bone Folder and give the inside of the box a little curl, it gives it a little better shape.

 

 I can not wait to see all of the wonderful ideas our team has to share with you today! Make you stop by everyone's if you have the chance!

DESIGNER SERIES PAPER AND RIBBON SHARES

 

OSAT Blog Hop - End of Summer - Stampin' Up! Above the Clouds

 Hi there! Welcome back! The summer days are dwindling, the start of school is upon us. It brings mixed emotions for me. I wouldn't be honest if I didn't say I was ready for the boys to be back in school. It was a busy summer, and three active boys make summer pretty messy and pretty loud, but I know that these summers are limited, and soon I will miss them... Being as this month's blog hop theme was End of Summer, I decided to work on a project that I do every year for my boys' first day of school, an unofficial end of summer to me....

 Come the first day of school, I'll make the boys pose with these, in front of the same cabinet as always... Last year I decided to make their signs in their school colors, so it's SUPER easy for me to slide them into their scrapbooks as a divider of sorts! Dual purpose! (They'll all pretty much look the same, just the different colors.)

 I thought that the Above the Clouds bundle would be perfect for this project. The balloons were a great way to showcase the school colors! I loved coming up with different ways to bring them to life with our Stampin' Blends. Not only did I try to make the balloons pop, but I had some fun with them for the letters of each of their grades! Creating ombre looks is so easy with their blending abilities!!!

 I thought that this year I could also create a card for each of them to give them on the first day of school!

 I kept with the same color scheme, but wanted to play with another balloon! I used the Night of Navy Blends along with the Seaside Spray Blends to create the same ombre look as the letters on the sign.

 You are going to LOVE this month's hop - there are so many great ideas! Make sure you check them all out!

OSAT Blog Hop - Something Old - Something New - Stampin' Up! Geared Up Garage and last minute Father's Day Idea!

 Hello! I am so excited about this month's One Stamp At A Time Blog Hop!!! Why? Well, it's letting me play with stuff I got to keep from the last catalog and stuff from the BRAND NEW ONE!!!

I had to really think outside of the box on this one though. You see, I don't have a TON of new stuff to play with yet. I also tried to use what I DID get for an occasion I knew was coming up. Well, what better reason than to make another Father's Day card?

 What's new and what's carried over you might ask? Well, I used the new 2019-2021 In Color Designer Papers in the AMAZING new color Pretty Peacock, and a new twine. For the "old" I used the Geared Up Garage stamp set that carried over from the Occasions catalog into the new big catalog.

 I thought I would add in a quick little gift idea for anyone that might have put off shopping or maybe just needing something super budget-friendly!

 I thought that it would be great way to give Dad a special "coupon"

 Add a little extra on the inside - remember, we want to make it special!

 You are going to LOVE this month's hop - there are so many great ideas! Make sure you check them all out!

Have you seen the new catalog? It's awesome!!! Let me know if you would like me to send one to you. It's full of great new stamp sets, new accessories, and of course, the new In-Colors!!!

I truly appreciate the opportunity to be your Stampin' Up! Demonstrator. When you place your order this month, please use the hostess code N9PNMGW6 for a special thank you treat from me!

OSAT Blog Hop - Simple Stamping with Stampin' Up! Humming Along

 Happy Valentine's Day! I LOVE today - I love it for so many reasons, but the main one is that it's my son't birthday!!! Today he turns 13!!! So hard to believe! I have been one busy Mama. SO glad I was able to get in some stamping time this week, I NEEDED it - OSAT and simple stamping to the rescue! I created this set of Thank You cards for my youngest son's GATE teacher to send to a few organizations that helped pull together their recent field trip to the local bird sanctuary. Humming along seemed like a natural choice.

 I found a picture of one of the hummingbirds that are in our area, and fell in love with the colors of this one, and knew that it would make for a stunning card!

  The watercolor pencils are perfect for getting great blending on this bird. Keeping it simple, I didn't use any punches or any Big Shot items, so I needed to find ways to add visual interest. Adding the large tone-on-tone stamped image on the card base, and matting the sentiment strip with Silver Glimmer paper were two easy ways to do this.

 I did use 2 circle punches on the jar though, but I figured it would make a super cute little gift for his hard working teacher. I found these great little plastic jars at the Dollar Tree in the Valentine section. I think I need to see if they have any more....

I can not wait to see what everyone else on the hop has created - make sure that you check them all out - there's bound to be some amazing ideas!

 

As always, I want to remind you how much I truly appreciate the opportunity to be your Stampin' Up! Demonstrator. When you place your order this month, please use the hostess code K9K9X7QJ for a special thank you treat from me!

One Stamp At A Time Blog Hop - Sale-A-Brate Every Occasion - Stampin' Up! So Hoppy Together

 Hi there! Hope you are doing well. I am fighting a stupid cold...ugh. Good thing is, I've been able to stay inside and get a little stamping done. Perfect time to work on this month's One Stamp At A Time projects, featuring our favorite Sale-A-Bration and Occasions products! That's a HARD choice - the catalogs are amazing.

 I needed to create something bright and cheery (for me) and something cute and simple for an upcoming class...so I pulled out our great new Gingham Designer Series Paper and this adorable frog stamp set!!!

 First off is a simple, but cute card that makes this new Gingham Gala shine, and This happy little froggy the star! The strips of Paper (Grapefruit Grove, Daffodil Delight, Lemon Lime Twist, Balmy Blue, and Highland Heather) are cut to 3/4"x4" and spaced 1/4" apart. You can use our Grid Paper to make lining this on up super easy! Being as there aren't any embellishments on this card (GASP!!!) I elevated the main image on Stampin' Dimensionals to add a little interest.

   Being as I am still not feeling well, I am trying to keep it pretty simple in my stamp room. Thank goodness Stampin' Up! makes it easy with things like our little Acetate Boxes. I simply slipped in some 1"x 2" scraps on the inside, to the front one I added the little froggy and a hand cut word-bubble. A quick tie with the coordinating FREE ribbon and DONE! I think this should be a prize at the stamp class, what do you think?

 Can't wait for you to check out what everyone else created today!!!! Make sure you visit everyone and we love when you let us know that you like what we've made!!! Have a great day! (Oh, you can check out today's shopping list and extras below the link list!!!)

OSAT Blog Hop - Creature Comforts

   Hi Stampin' friends!!!! Believe it or not, it's time again for the One Stamp At A Time monthly blog hop! I know that I have been MIA for a few months from this hop due to a string of issues, but hopefully I won't miss any in the future.

  The theme for the month is "Creature Comforts" - inspired by animals. I am going to guess that a lot of people have pets they will be inspired by - not here...danged allergies! I actually decided to use this theme for a BABY!!!

   Honestly, because of not having animals of my own, I almost skipped out on this  month's hop. I am so glad I didn't, I LOVE my projects. My Sister-in-law's little sister (who I count as a niece) is due with her first baby at the end of August, and she is an animal lover, so....well, hopefully she appreciates this.

 

 I REALLY hope she loves it, because I know I DO!!! This was a true labor of love. I thought it would be fun to step up a stamp set that's been in the catalog for a few years, and bring a nice touch of sophistication to it.

 Sorry about the slight shadow, this silly card did not want to stay flat! Here is a close up so you can see some of the detail...

 I stamped the little fox in Smoky Slate on Shimmery white paper after stamping off once. Then, using Smoky Slate and Gray Granite ink that I picked up with my aquapainter from squishing some into the lid of my ink pad, I started adding the details and shading. I used the same technique on the sweet little branches. Then I lovingly, and painstakingly started fussy cutting, but I think the end result was worth it!

 I figured I would want a cute little gift holder to go with the card, so I used the new Lustrous White Gable Boxes for a way to hold a little something for baby.

 I followed the same steps for the details on this box as I did for the card above. On both the box and card, This sweet little fox is surrounded by a wash of Petal Pink.

 I hope that you enjoyed my projects today, and maybe I even inspired you to pull out some of your "older" sets to see what you can do to make them fun and new again! I've included a full list of supplies at the end of this post to make things a little easier for you if you'd like to order any of the items that I used.

 Enjoy the rest of this month's Blog Hop, I am sure that you'll find tons of great ideas!!!

One Stamp At A Time Blog Hop - Don't Go Breakin' My Heart

 Hello, it's time again for the One Stamp At A Time monthly blog hop! I was so sad to miss last month's due to internet issues, so hopefully I've made up for it with this month's!!!

 This month's theme is "Don't Go Breakin' My Heart" - kind of centered around Valentine's Day, but I suppose it doesn't have to. Being as I am a mom to a Valentine boy, and I have the most handsome Valentine in the world, I kind of LOVE this holiday!

 Honestly, I had a BLAST creating these!!!

 They're so SPARKLY!!!! I LOVE THEM!!!!

 I came up with the card idea first. I cut a heart out of Whisper White cardstock with the Sweet and Sassy thinlits, then outlined it with the Fine Tip glue pen to attach the GORGEOUS Iridescent Sequins.

 

  I knew I wanted a coordinating gift, and I really tossed around a few ideas before I settled on this Popcorn Box. I thought it would be cute to add the window! To do that, I just cut out the popcorn box first, then used the Sweet and Sassy thinlits again, and backed it with a window sheet.

Here is the list of supplies that I used. By clicking on the images below, you can the items directly to your cart so that you can create this card, and MANY other projects too!!! Please enter DQJDZBVF as your hostess code, and I will send you a special thank you gift with any purchase of $35 or more! (U.S. only)Don't forget that all purchases of $50 or more will earn you FREE SALE-A-BRATION items!!! This year's offering is AMAZING!!!!

OSAT Blog Hop - Throwback Thursday

Hi!!! Welcome back. Today is our monthly One Stamp At A Time blog hop, and I am so happy that you are joining us! Our theme this months is Throwback Thursday. We are each taking some of our older projects, ones that might have used products that aren't currently available, and giving them a fresh update with products that ARE!

 I actually found 2 projects that were not created to go together that actually did, and that made it a little easier for me! I LOVED both of these projects when I created them, so I really didn't mind giving them a redo!

 

 

 Well, this sweet little lamb isn't available anymore, and he was SO CUTE. I do however have another cute animal on my shelves... my THIS LITTLE PIGGY!!!!

 I really tried to recreate the original projects as best as I could, think I did pretty well!!!

 I love these little 4" canvases, they make great little gifts. I think this would be great for maybe a new student that just started her first year in college, or maybe a friend that worked for a promotion...or maybe just a JUST BECAUSE you're gettin' through the days kind of gift!

 I sponged a little Bermuda Bay on the canvas and let it dry. The image is just colored in with Stampin' Up! Watercolor Pencils, and just softened with a Blender Pen.

 

 I kept the layout the same, changed up the colors a bit and switched out accessories on this one. I love how cute, quick and simple this was.

 I want to encourage you to maybe take a moment and revisit an older project that you created. See how you can re-imagine it. It's especially helpful when you are dealing with a creative block!

 

 I am really excited to see what the rest of the team has created this month! Make sure you hop all the way around! Next up is my wonderfully talented friend, Marisa Gunn!

OSAT Blog Hop - Very Vintage - Stampin' Up! Country Livin'

 Hi!!! Welcome back. Today is our monthly One Stamp At A Time blog hop, and I am so happy that you are joining us! Our theme this months is Very Vintage, and although I love a vintage decorating style, it can often be a challenge for me to create in a vintage style. I knew if I was going to pull it off, I was going to need a new standby - Country Livin', and my trusty Wood Textures Designer Series Paper!

 I always try to coordinate my projects, like a gift and card to go to the same person, but this time one of the projects is for ME!!! LOL

 My new office/guest room is still pretty bare when it comes to decor. I have an idea for a beautiful gallery wall with quotes, pictures, and such. I want it to have a lot of personal meaning, so I thought it might be a nice idea if I created a few things for the wall myself. This is just a little 4" canvas. I LOVE them, I use them a lot. I actually stamped on to a piece of Watercolor and glued it to the block, then added some Wood Textures paper to the edges. It really does look like a wood block now!

 I LOVE how it turned out!!! I am going to be so happy when I can complete my wall!

 I did a card as well of course, but I won't be sending it to myself with the block :)LOL!!! I do love the card though. I think I even know who I would like to send it to.

 I added the sentiment from Sheltering Tree to the boots, as well as to the Pool Party background. Really, this card could be sent to almost anyone, for almost any reason. That's probably why it's one of my favorite sentiments.

 I received the sweetest comment, wanting to know a little bit more about how I watercolor, so here is a little more info if you want to know too! I swear by my Aqua Painter from SU. I used quite a few colors on this one! For the ground and grass - Crumb Cake, Old Olive, and Always Artichoke. For the sky, Soft Sky and Smoky Slate. For the truck, Pool Party, Bermuda Bay, Soft Suede, Chocolate Chip, Early Espresso, and Cajun Craze. For the boots, I used Crumb Cake, Soft Suede, and Early Espresso. I also just use ink that I have smooshed into the lid of my ink pad.

 I am really excited to see what the rest of the team has created this month! Make sure you hop all the way around! Next up is Justin Kreiger!
