Reasons to stamp.....

The Gingersnap Creations blog does a monthly post which gives you a reason to stamp every day of the following month.

Coming up on september 28th is "ask a stupid question day" So I made this card with one of my favourite stupid questions

"What if the Hokey Cokey really is what it's all about?"

Think about it, really what if it is?

Always On My Mind

Here's a card created for a "Favorite Board Game" challenge over at the Cutting Garden Blog who will soon be carrying the beautiful Stampsmith stamps - yay! This is based on my favorite board game - Cranium. In one category in this game, you get to act like a famous person and the other players have to guess who you are! Can you guess who this is... LOL!!!

I made this for the wednesday stamper theme of dogs. I used the quote and image from the stampsmith's wizard of oz plate.

Do you exercise too?

Hi everyone...

I hope you're enjoying a beautiful summer! The summer weather has finally arrived in Nova Scotia and we're having a little heat wave with 100% humidity - gasp! It's making me want to stay inside out of the heat so I've been up in the craft room a bit more lately. Here's one of my latest creations.
Cheers,
Val

groovy baby ATC

I have made this ATC for a couple of challenges using an image from the oh baby sheet.

Time for Memories...

Don't you just love Stampsmith's Serena stamp? I've used Stampsmith's Rose Background stamp using Versafine Vintage Sepia on cream cardstock. You can find the individual stamps here:

Main image, Serena #2 (The Stampsmith: http://stampsmith.net/singles2.htm)
Rose Background (The Stampsmith: http://stampsmith.net/singles2.htm)

The flower filigree stamp is from Magenta and the Woven Background stamp is from Rubber Soul. I added Dew Drop embellishments and cream and dusty pink flowers from Kaisercraft using Glossy Acents.

Then I decided to make a bookmark to help me remember my reading spot in my favorite novel. I used images from the following Stampsmith plates to create this bookmark:

Main image, Paris post and word stamps from “Paris” Plate (The Stampsmith: http://stampsmith.net/paris.htm)
Background stamps from “Medieval Ornaments #2” Plate (The Stampsmith: http://stampsmith.net/medieval2.htm)
Black flower image, from “The Great Wall of China” Plate (The Stampsmith: http://stampsmith.net/asia.htm)

Have a great weekend everyone!

Creatively yours,

Maria
