Get Well Gopher!

Welcome OCS Fans!

Today is Wednesday and I'm back to share this adorable little gopher nurse in a tea cup to cheer up your friend, who isn't feeling so great right now from the new Get Well Soon collection. The stamp I'm featuring is called Gopher Tea Nurse (High Hopes Rubber Stamps) and the sentiment is Think Happy (High Hopes Rubber Stamps)!

I die cut some Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card using my Cuttlebug and Spellbinders - Labels 10. Using my MISTI, I stamped the image with Memento - Tuxedo Black ink. Next I coloured in the image with a mixture of Copic markers and PrismaColor Pencils. To get the crisp white edge around the image, I repositioned the cut out image back into the die cut and then taped the back to keep it in position. Then I coloured in my background around the image. Once completed, I removed the tape from the back of the die.

I die cut a second frame from the same die cut set (Spellbinders - Labels 10) and then edged around it with Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Evergreen Bough using a dauber. Next, I put the die cut into Cuttlebug - Snow Dots embossing folder and ran it through the Cuttlebug again. I stamped the sentiment using Versa Fine - Onyx Black and then embossed it with Ranger - Clear Super Fine Detail embossing powder. Next, I die cut the sentiment with My Creative Time - Sentiment Label Dies and edged around the die cut with Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Evergreen Bough using a dauber. To complete the project, I edged around the remainder of the card with the same Tim Holtz ink.

Speedy Recovery

Hello, welcome back to One Crazy Stamper! It's Heather, with you Sunday inspiration. Last Sunday a posted a card with Seymore's Sick Day. I mentioned I had been experimenting with dragon colors, so today I have a slightly more yellow/green alternative.

Both look great when paired with the right papers!

I also used the Back on your Feet sentiment with this cutie. The length of the sentiment didn't quite go in the space I had available, so I carefully cut it down into four pieces and made it work for my layout. Love it!

Thanks for stopping by today, have a great weekend!

My Head's an Achin' and My Tail's a Draggin'

Speaking of dragons, how cute is this adorable High Hopes image! This is Seymore's Sick Day and he is probably one of my FAVORITE images in the Get Well section of the website. Who can resist an adorable dragon?

The fun part about this stamp is picking out your favorite dragon color combos. This guy was my first attempt and he's quite bright! He works well, but my second attempt used a lighter, more yellow/green combination. I'll share that with you in an upcoming post.

Would Seymore look good in a fantastical purple/pink combo? Maybe I'll try that next...

Sentiment on this beauty is Open Get Well Soon.

Well Wishes

Happy Sunday, Everyone!

Welcome back to the One Crazy Stamper blog! I'm here today with some more inspiration for you, using the High Hopes Rubber Stamps Wishing Well.

This is a great, versatile image. I've used it for a get well card today, pairing it with the Get Well Wishes Script sentiment. However, this image can easily be used for thinking of you and for sending out general "well wishes". 

I dug into my selection of paper flowers to pretty this up layout up. I love how the colors blend well together and compliment the vines on my well.
