30 Years of Happy Stamps, Chalk It Up and SVG Card

Happy Wednesday crafty friends,
Today I am sharing yet another fun card with you in honor of National Stamping Month.

Real fast and quick card. Finished size is 5 x 6.5 and starts with a kraft cardstock base. I then cut a mat out of white cardstock and black cardstock.  I then used some of that super fun patterned paper from the  Chalk It Up Paper pack. You can see a couple of border strips of different patterned papers from the same Chalk It Up Paper pack as well as a strip of the teal shimmer trim for the border.

Here’s a closer look at the rosettes I created one in smoothie cardstock and the other in crystal blue cardstock I used an SVG file that I created for the rosette. I then used some more Chalk It Up Paper pack for the scallop on the larger rosette and my circle punch for a black mat. I then used this month’s Stamp special,  30 years of happy  for the sentiments in the centers of the rosettes and stamped them with my Juniper Ink Pad. I used my foam tape to give the larger rosette a little lift.

Here’s a closer look at my sentiment. It came from the Chalk It Up Chipboard Assortment set. I matted it with some Crystal blue cardstock and then inked the edges with some of my Lagoon ink from my Adventure Mini Ink Pad set. This card came together very fast and easily. Perfect card for encouraging anyone.

Happy Tuesday crafty friends,

Hope it isn't too much of a struggle to go back to work today.  Today’s project was with my daughter in mind. She just started College and it has been interesting to say the least. So here is what I came up with.

My finished card size is 5 x 6.5. I started with a black cardstock base. I then used some red cardstock and then some champagne cardstock to cut out the brick overlay with my Pazzles Inspiration Vue. I then used my Cricut Expression and my Cricut Artbooking cartridge and cut out the white note paper. I then used the corresponding stamp and my black ink pad to stamp in the lines.

Here’s a closer look at the pennants. I used my Art Philosophy cartridge and cut out the pennants. I then stamped them with my Lagoon ink pad and my Cranberry Ink Pad.

I then used last month’s Stamp of the month set, Circus Alphabet and stamped the letters on the pennants with my black ink pad. I cut a piece of black cardstock and then matted that with some of the Chalk It Up paper pack paper and inked the edges of the patterned paper with my sponge and black ink pad. I layered that mat set onto the base of my card and then went to work adding the pennants. I used some foam tape under them to give them a little lift. I also added some bows using the  May Arts Burlap string to the edges of the pennants.

Here’s a closer look at the stamped sentiment. I used the Geek Is The New Chic stamp set and stamped it with my black ink pad. The cute little arrow came from the Chalk It Up Stickers Assortment.

Here is one last look at the finished card.

September Stamp Of The Month

What a fun and versatile set. So many great uses and only $5 with a qualifying purchase of $50. CLICK HERE for details and to shop.

Here is a look at my finished card. I used papers from the Chalk It Up Paper Pack.  The finished size is 5.5 x 4.25.  I used my slate ink pad for the sentiment and it came from the Artbooking cartridge.   The scribbled tab is from the Thanks Oodles Stamp set and stamped with my Lagoon Ink Pad.

The Chevron stamped image and the sentiment are from the Cricut Artbooking bundle which contains 3 stamp sets. I used my Flaxen Ink Pad. The tiny heart is from the Chalk It Up Stickers set. I added just a bit of stickles to the centers of the stars on the chevron image as well as the center of the star sticker. You can also see that I used the journaling pen to do some faux stitching around the mats.

Here is a closer look at the heart image. It is from the September SOTM. The Artiste cartridge has a compatible cut for this stamp.   I stamped it using my Smoothie Ink pad. I also added a little bit of Stickles to the inside image and used some foam tape to give it a little lift.
