Howdy!

Howdy friends, another fun stamp company I am showcasing for our Inspirational Month of July here at One Crazy Stamper.
The image I am using today is from Your Next Stamp called Howdy Farmer.  Super cute, and this rubber stamp has the funniest sentiments along with it. 
I colored my image with copic markers, added some ribbon and pearls. I used MS leaf branch punch,  I used La-La-Land banner die, and Bo Bunny - Lemonade Stand pattern paper.  I hope you get into your craft room and create with us, please stop back to One Crazy Stamper for more inspiration.  Stop by Lora's store for some supplies to! Thanks again for stopping, till next time Happy Crafting!

Happy Camper

Hello and Happy Friday!  Today I have another fun camping card to show to you that I made for another friend that I camp with in the USA.  I am having so much fun with the Happy Trails set from Taylored Expressions....
 For this card I stamped the Car but made it into a single pick up truck, then I stamped the long trailer to attach to the truck. Once I coloured these two images I then fussy cut them out.  I took Kraft cardstock and ripped it to make the ground background then I took the two sizes of pine tree stamps in the set and created a forest along the road way.  I used Black sparkly ribbon to create the asphalt and die cut the clouds and grass to create this awesome scene.

Here is a look at the decorated inside of the card with lots of room to write a special note to my friends....
 Supplies Used:
* All images & Sentiments: Taylored Expressions, Happy Trails stamp set
* Copic Xpress It card Stock
* Copic Markers
* Memento Inks: Tuxedo Black, Rich Cocoa, Northern Pine & Olive Grove

Happy Birthday Cone

 
Hello Monday friends, and I have another inspirational card to share with you.  This one is very special for me.  As I was lucky to have a young girl craft with me, she is only 12, and I think she will be coloring beyond me soon, if not already.  I said I would make the card, if she colored and so we crafted this one together.  Thank you very much girlie, and anytime you want to craft again with me, I would be honored.
 
The stamp I am show casing today for our Inspirational month at One Crazy Stamper is called Birthday cone from Stampendous.  So awesome, and I added some ribbon/flowers a sentiment from Whimsy Stamps called-Simple Sentiments. I also used Spellbinders and some 3D Foam tape to pop this wonderful cute image up. Added some Wink of Stella clear over the candles and the ice cream for sparkle oh and on the hats too. I do hope you get a chance to see all the wonderful creations at One Crazy Stamper and to get inspired by our fantabulouso design team, and get crafty too, maybe with a friend or alone.  There is always a good time to get your creative juices flowing.  Till next time happy crafting, and for some much needed retail therapy pop over to Lora's store, and get shopping.  Cheers!

Hot Tub Gals

Hello everyone!  I hope your summer is in full swing like it is around here... and what could be a better activity on a sunny afternoon, than sitting in a hot tub, sipping wine with your girlfriends?  I have a bright & summery card for you featuring an Art Impressions stamp called In the Tub (Sku #U3564):

I kept my card fairly simple, since I used such a large, bright image: I've stitched around the edges with my sewing machine, tied two colours of Baker's Twine around the card, and popped the image up on some pop dots.  I scattered a few Pearl Gems around the outside to sparkle things up a bit.

Lora has a wonderful selection of Art Impressions stamps in the OCS store - click on the links below to find out where you can find it all!  Happy stamping everyone!
