Scrapbook Saturday with Bev using Gabriel Loves Baseball

Welcome OCS Fans;

Hi it's Bev here today ... for Saturday Scrapbook layout projects for One Crazy Stampers using High Hopes Stamps. If you have been visiting me on Saturdays you will see that I am only using stamped images as accents on pages. I try to theme them to photos which makes them a perfect accent. I am hoping I could inspire you to try using your stamps on layout pages too. 
For this page I am sharing photos of my 2nd eldest Grand Daughter when she played school baseball. I always touch up with signo white gel pen accents. 

There are so many amazing images that make the perfect accents for our themed layout pages. I challenge you to give it a try. This way you can colour them to match your projects.

Supplies Used:

• Stamps: Gabriel Loves Baseball S524
• Copic Markers: R20, R24, R27, R29,  B28, B29, BG02, E00, E01, E25, E34, E35, E37, E43, C3, C5, C7

• Other: Paper, chipboard, Ink roller, stickers, punchinella, white signo gel pen

Humming Birds on Spring Page Layout

Welcome OCS Fans;

Hi it's Bev here today and I am sharing my DT project for One Crazy Stampers using High Hopes Stamps. I also am thrilled to tell you that I will not be doing cards but scrapbook layout pages and some of the accents will be co-ordinating stamps for the themes of the projects. It should be great fun. For this page I am sharing the wonders of Humming Birds in a summer page.

To start my project I stamp and copic colour my humming bird image. I always finish with highlights using a signo white gel pen.

For this page I used lots of fun bright coloured print papers, lots of layers and many coloured chipboard accents... that looked great with the stamp image accent.

Supplies used:

• Stamps:  Humming Bird Ring T205
• Copic Markers: 0. C0, C01, C03, C5, C8, B000, B00, B02, B06, R24, R27, E00, E01, E55, E57, E59, W5, W7, G12, G21, G24     
• Paper: Echo Park Collection

Using Hockey Stamp on Sports Action Layout

Welcome OCS Fans;

Hi it's Bev here today and I am sharing a project for One Crazy Stampers using High Hopes Stamps. I also am thrilled to tell you that I will not be doing cards but scrapbook layout pages and some of the accents will be co-ordinating stamps for the themes of the projects. It should be great fun. So very proud as this page is my eldest son Chris and he played hockey in EC Lunen for a year and was the MVP for the year. The 2nd photo on the page also is so special because if you look close he is flying through the air in front of the net to score very much like the photo of Bobby Orr when he did the same thing. 

To start my project I stamped the image and then coloured it with copics to match the photo best I could. That is the wonderful thing with stamps and colouring... you can match up the team colours to meet your needs. I always highlight using signo white gel pen.

Using stamped images as accents are a perfect match for so many projects as they are available in so many themes.... and as they are reusable and colours can match any project they a great thing to add to any crafters collection.

Supplies used:

• Stamps:  Sam's Big Play T511
• Copic Markers: 0. C0, C01, C03, C5, C8, B000, B00, B02, B06, B24, B26, B27, R28, E00, E01, E55, E57, E59, W5, W7,    
• Paper: Maja Design Life by the Sea
• Other: signo white gel pen, cardstock, chipboard, ink, stickers

Snowflake Season

For my One Crazy Stamper card today I have combined a couple of different images.  This card includes the adorable Winter Moose image as well as the Forest image.

The entire card was colored with Copic markers including the sky, which is a technique I am working hard on getting right.  The snowflakes were made with a Sakura white glaze pen.

Card Recipe - E31, E33, E35, E37, E57, G21, G24, G28, B23, B24, B26, V08, B32, B41, B45, B52, R24, YR02, YR04, YR09, C1

Oh the Weather Outside is .....

Oh the weather outside is frightful

But the fire is so delightful

Since we've no place to go

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

It doesn't show signs of stoppin'

And I've brought some corn for poppin'

The lights are turned down low

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

Yesterday we were under a heavy snowfall warning of 20 - 25 cm, and mother nature did not disappoint!

So my card for today's here at One Crazy Stamper blog was inspired by it....

First off I must say that you should never heat emboss and then color with your Copics, as the two seem to not really like each other (guess who will be replacing a few Copic nibs in the near future).  Oh well, lesson learned and I'm passing it on to all of my followers.  Now, back to the card - the image is High Hopes Rubber Stamps Winter Wonderland U-013.  I stamped the image with Versamark and heat embossed it with a white embossing powder, and then I colored it.  Excuse the streaky sky - I was going for the northern lights and really messed it up when the reaction occurred - sigh!  After coloring the image, I once again stamped with Versamark( thank goodness for the MISTI) and added more white embossing powder.  The next time I think I'll stamp the image with a light color, color it with my Copics, and then heat embossed the white over the finished product.

Greatest Gifts

    

Christmas is quickly approaching - the time to share memories with family and friends, and my card  today celebrates the season!

This sweet image is from High Hopes Rubber stamps newest release Woodsy Christmas and is called Christmas Penguins.  I have colored the image with Copics and added white highlights with a Sakura white glaze pen.  The image was mounted on Photo Play's Mad 4 Plaid Christmas paper from last year.  The sentiment is also from High Hopes Rubber Stamps and can be found here.

I'll Be Home for Christmas!

Wednesday's roll around way too fast for me - but maybe that's because I spend so much time with the three grand babies - hmmmmm!  Anyhow, it's Wednesday again so that means it's time for me to share another sweet image from High Hopes Rubber Stamps newest collection Woodsy Christmas!

This is Cocoa Gnome that I have colored with Copic markers, then added highlights of Sakura white Glaze pen and Viva Decor pearl dots.  The colors of the image match the paper perfectly, which is an older paper from my stash.  A sentiment also from High Hopes Rubber Stamps completes the card!

Gofer Christmas Greetings

Who doesn't love an adorable little gopher wishing you a very Sparkly Christmas!!!  I just had to color up this cutie from High Hopes Rubber Stamps newest release Woodsy Christmas.

This is Christmas Gofer that I colored with Copic markers.  After fussy cutting the image I added sparkle with touches of a silver glitter pen, white highlights with a Sakura glaze pen, 3D berries made with white and red pearl pens, snow with Liquid Applique, some fun flock on the hat, and then to finish off the whole image I sprayed it with Shimmer Spritz (sure wish the glitter showed on this photo). 

The sentiment is also from High Hopes Rubber stamps and is available here.  A red snowflake cut using an older Memory Box die from my stash finishes off the card front.

Christmas Trio

Wednesday has come again, so it's time for me to share my latest creation here at One Crazy Stamper.  The new release Woodsy Christmas has arrived at the store, and is available for purchase, but alas Canada Post is slow in getting my stamps to me so....... in the meantime I have an older image to share with you all.

This image is Three Pane Christmas from High Hopes Rubber stamps that I have stamped on to Copic Xpress It cardstock with Memento ink, and then colored with my Copic sketch markers.  Once I fussy cut the image out, it was placed on a card front that features an older Cuttlebug embossing folder, some Carta Bella paper, and a My Favorite Things sentiment.

Skiing Raccoon

Welcome back to my usual Wednesday post here at One Crazy Stamper, and today I am showcasing another of the newest images available from High Hopes Rubber Stamps.  This cutie is Skiing Raccoon, and the sentiment Hello Winter is also from the new release.

I colored the image with Copic sketch markers and Prismacolor pencils, and then fussy cut it out placing it on the background dp from Carta Bella.  I also added Stampendous Fun Flock in white to the trim on the hat and sweater.  Some added sparkle was added with the sequin snowflakes.

Blue Bird

Hard to believe but Christmas is just a short few weeks away, so I have been busy creating cards for the occasion.  Today's card is just one of many!

I got creative with this image entitled Blue Birdy (PP001) from High Hopes Rubber Stamps,by using it as the main focal point of the card, and also to create the patterned paper on the top of the card.  I stamped the image lightly in three colors to coordinate with the designer paper I picked, and then stamped the image with Memento Ink, and colored the image with Copics.  The addition of some Stampendous Fun Flock to the fur details finished off the image.

Hockey Greetings

It's been a crazy week - I spent last week in Calgary teaching classes, visiting friends and hitting all of my favorite restaurants!!  I was going to return home to the Kootenays today, but thankfully I was watching the weather forecast and knew I had to make the long drive home yesterday - good thing as Calgary was hit with a big dump of snow today - up to 35 cm in parts of the city!! 

For today's post I colored up "Goalie Gregg" P025 from High Hopes Rubber Stamps with my Copic sketch markers and then mounted it on a card that I created with just colored cardstock.  The sentiment is hand written.

Jumping with Excitement

This last month has been full of birthdays, both family and friends celebrated the big event, so it's been a very busy month.  Boy's cards are super hard to find so I just had to design this little fellow into a card for the big event!

This adorable image is Jumping Party Robot from High Hopes Rubber Stamps.  I have colored him with Copic markers and then fussy cut him out.  The designer paper is from Bo Bunny and the sentiment is from My Sentiments Exactly.  I used good old fashioned pinking scissors to make the border around the sentiment.

Jingle Canadian Christmas Greetings

Fall is in the air here in British Columbia, and with that in mind my thoughts turn to Christmas and all of the cards I need to make.  This card features one of my favorite images from High Hopes Rubber stamps.

My card this week features Peg Leg Pete from High Hopes Rubber Stamps that I have colored with Copic markers.  I fussy cut the image, and then placed it on the card front that features paper from Prima's Engraver line, some wrinkled kraft paper that I highlighted the wrinkles with brown ink, twine, and sentiments from my stash.

Little Pumpkin

The sky is blue today which is quite the change for us in British Columbia, as most days the sky is grey or orange from all of the forest fire smoke that surrounds us.  So to celebrate I have created this cute card featuring one of my favorite fall stamps from High Hopes Rubber Stamps.

The image is entitled "Pumpkin Patch" (S152), and I have stamped it on Copic Xpress It cardstock with Memento ink, and then colored it with Copics.  The card front is paper from my stash and the sentiment is from a CC Designs sentiment set.

I hope you are enjoying the last week of summer wherever you are, and please check out the design team posts as the ladies are showcasing some beautiful projects.

Ready, Set, Glow

Sharing a little bit of magical fun today, with my card for this months theme of Fall or Halloween.  This adorable image is Little Wizard that I colored with Copics, then fussy cut and adhered to the card front.  The card front was made with an older Martha Stewart punch and layers of paper.  I just love this little wizard and his owl!!

Fall is in the Air

I'm back finally although this will be a short post as I still don't have internet - moving in the mountains is a test of patience as today is the fourth appointment with Shaw to get internet and cable working.  Last week at the third appointment we got phones at least!!

So for my card for today's post for One Crazy Stamper I have chosen the adorable image from High Hope's Rubber Stamps called Are We There Yet S087 and paired it with a sentiment from Sentiment Set #1.

A Merry Little Snowlady

Christmas in July is a great way to get a start on all of those Christmas cards that we always say we will make early, and then come late November we suddenly realize we don't have enough cards once again.  This week for One Crazy Stamper I have colored up the adorable Snowlady Surprise from High Hopes Rubber stamps.

The image was stamped on Copic Xpress It cardstock with Memento ink and then colored with Copic sketch markers.  To add further dimension to the image I added Prismacolor pencils to the shadows and highlights, and blended it out with Gamsol.  Echo Park's Hello Winter paper is the card base, and the sentiment is from my stash - an old Waltzing Mouse stamp.

Howdy Cowboy

Time again to share my latest card for One Crazy Stamper and the theme this month is Christmas in July.  Even though I now live in British Columbia, Calgary, Alberta is still my home and the annual Stampede just wrapped up again for another year so...... time to celebrate the cowboy in all of us!

This darling image is Snowman Cowboy (TT141) from High Hopes Rubber stamps and can be purchased at One Crazy Stamper. I have colored the image with Copics and then created the card front using designed paper from Carta Bella's Cowboy Country.  Happy trails to you all!!!
