Runway Inspired Challenge

Hi there! I'm finally joining the Runway again for their latest challenge. Here was the inspiration photo!


For my take on the challenge, I definitely wanted to use stripes. I used two different stamps, one from Simon Says Stamp and the other from Avery Elle. The deer head is from Kelly Purkey's new release. Thanks die cut is from Simon Says as well. I covered the deer in black enamel to help it shine more! :)


Thanks for stopping by!! :)

November Release for Sweet Stamp Shop

Hi there! Welcome to my blog! Today, Sweet Stamp Shop released some amazing products. I'll be showcasing three of the new sets. First up is Monogram It. This set can not get anymore adorable. I am just in love with it! 


I'm in love with Christmas so of course that's what my first card focused around. I stamped the deer head in black ink and used Ranger Stickles to make the flowers into berries. I cut my vine stamp in half so I could widen it a bit. They're easy to put back together if you need to. Last, I stamped JOY using Monogram Alpha which I'll showcase next! :)


The next stamp set works well with Monogram It or can even be used alone like I'll show below! It's call Monogram Alphabet.


I was so excited when Nicole told me she created a set like this. I had been basically begging for one! For this next card, I white heat embossed CHRISTMAS and the sentiment.  The snowflake is actually a die that I covered with Star Dust Stickles from Ranger. This card was so easy to make and would be one I'd like to recreate for mass production. :)



Last is Panda Face. I chuckle when I see this set. It's so cute and funny! 


For the card, I stamp the head and body separate and then attached then afterwards. Super CAS card! :)


Well, what do you think!?!? Fun, right? Here's a coupon for you: NRN20. It ends on the 15th so don't delay! 

Thank you so much for stopping by the blog and I'll see y'all soon! :)

Avery Elle Challenge

 Today I'm joining Avery Elle's Challenge. We were to come up with a card based on this sketch.


Here is my take on the sketch.


The stamp I used Happy Camper. I first stamped the mountains on some masking paper. After placing the mountains the way I wanted them, used distress and hero shadow inks to blend the sky. I then colored the mountains with Copics. I then used Simon Says Stamps banner die and stamped the sentiment on it. For a finishing touch, I added dash lines, cropped the edges and added glitter to the tops of the mountains.


Here's a close up! :)
