BSS IDEA - STENCILING

Welcome to the Buffalo Stamps and Stuff Idea

A few cooler days brought on some productive craft time!

I bought these two beautiful stencils a couple of weeks ago

while in the store, and finally got round to checking them out.

The card below is my first attempt, and I just love how it

turned out.

The stencils are by Altenew

Layered Dahlia Stencil A

Layered Dahlia Stencil B
Butterfly Punch - Martha Stewart

I used a yellow dye ink pad, and

Wild Honey distress ink on my card.

You end up with  white border, but I cut

the white border off so I could mat with

a deep yellow card stock.

The Stencils make a large card 6x6 inches

But you could always use a portion of the stencil

and make smaller note cards like these 5 x 3 3/4 inch cards.

Loved using these stencils, make a very pretty card.

Thanks for stopping by.  Have a great day.  Until later.....

HMFMC #247 - Anythng But A Card

A new Challenge #247 begins today at the

House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge.

Our Hostess for this challenge is our talented go-to Teammate 

Christine   

And she has chosen the Theme

 Anything BUT a Card 

You are always welcome to use an Anything Goes theme.

My project is a birthday card and gift tag holder.

It holds about 10 cards and envelopes

and about 12 tags, but I made 8 of each.

Cards were made from pre-colored images from the Joanna Sheen

Triple House Mouse Designs CD

I made the tags from stamped images that I colored with Copics.

I found this idea on youtube here is the link

BSS IDEA - YOU ARE JAWSON

Welcome to the Buffalo Stamps and Stuff  Idea.

I took a class with Mona and we made the most adorable

magic color card using this stamp set and die set.

And, it seemed like summer swim time was the perfect time to

make a card to share with you with it.

The card design I found on youtube by Dawn Griffin

and it is called a Peekaboo Slider Card.

If you would like to see how it goes together, here is

the link.

The magic is that the message changes on the inside when you open it.

If you watch the video, you will see how it works.

BSS IDEA - A KISS YOU CAN'T RESIST

Welcome to the Buffalo Stamps and Stuff Monday Idea.

Wow, last day of July already!

I am loving the new stamps from Stamping Bella called Squidgys.

This one is so darn cute.

Stamp - Kidding Booth - Stamping Bella (eb465)

Paper - Pink, white, orchid card stock

Card is 51/4x51/4 inches tent folded

Embossing Folder, Brick Wall - Sizzix

Grass Die - Grassland Border (825) 2012 Poppystamps, Inc.

Colored with Copic Markers

I fussy cut the image out.  In doing so, there were hearts hanging from

a string that was just too small to cut out, so i recreated it with

string and little hearts from punches.

Inside sentiment is old Inkadindado Stamp.

Thanks for stopping by today.  Have a great day.  Until later.....
