Pick a stamp, Any stamp! - GD post for Craft Hoarders Anonymoys Challenge

 

Welcome! This is Challenge # 5 for Craft Hoarders Anonymous Challenge Blog !

Challenge #5 Pick a Stamp, Any Stamp!
 

You don't have to be a card maker to hoard stamps! With the popularity of pocket-style scrapbooking (Project Life and Photo Freedom) and the explosion of journaling stamps on the market, many scrapbookers have also become stamp hoarders. Digital stamps are more popular than ever. I am sure that most of us have at least one stamp in our stash! You may "collect" wood mounted stamps, clear stamps, cling rubber, or even digital stamps! Get one out, dust it off, and make it the STAR of your project! We want to see a stamp (sentiment, word art, image, etc.) on your project! Feel free to use more than one stamp, but you must have AT LEAST ONE stamped item on your project. 

One talented participant will receive this prize, donated by Hampton Art! The GoGo Crafter Rolling Tote is collapsible, allowing it to be shipped and stored flat. It comes with two wheels and a sturdy retractable handle for transporting. It also has interior dividers that are adjustable and removable, two interior pockets, three exterior side pockets for supplies, and a zippered front area. This tote can hold enough items for an evening crop or be a helpful "companion" at trade shows or expos

 

 

Also note that the prizes are shipped internationally so all of you crafters do participate.

Here is my project.

 

 

 For this card here I simply stamped the background stamp in black inks and distressed the two panels with black soot (back panel) and shabby shutters distress inks(front panel). The fabric flowers are handmade using velvet fabric scraps.

 

Challenge Rules are HERE. Make sure to link your project using the Link Tool on the Craft Hoarders Anonymous Challenge Blog.

Thinking of You card

 Hi!!
This is a card I made recently...there isn't much in this to tell. Used fabric tape and inked it using spun sugar distress ink

Used an eyelet to attach the two frames so that one rotates over the other. The inner one has the sentiment

 

 

 

The perfume bottle stamp is from kaiserkraft and the sentiment is from inkadinkado .The frame stamp is from prima. The pattern papers are from websters pages

Z- fold card and Faux silk look

Hello!!

Today I'm sharing with you this awesome technique I saw at IBS blog by Leah...the faux silk technique. Here is my Z fold card using this technique..

 

Isn’t this gorgeous...this technique makes even the most bright pattern papers so pleasant to look at..I just loved it...I distressed the edges of paper as well..

 

 

I made this as a z fold card...keeping in mind the challenge at Masnsi’s blog diecuts and more...I so wanted to take part in one of her challenges since long...but things kept me busy...finally I'm am!!

 

 

 

 

 

 I still have to add a picture here...so left it blank for the time being...will update soon..

 

I also stamped on images and script on the paper to give that extra edge...the technique adds so much depth and texture to your paper. Its definitely worth the effort!!
I also used the gorgeous crochet trim to add texture
