BasicGrey Hipster + Giveaway!

Hi there! Today I'm sharing a few cards I made with the BasicGrey Hipster collection. I've had these cards made for months and just realized that I never got around to sharing them here. (oops!)

This first one is a super simple card that features stamps from all three clear sets in the collection.

And here's the second card -- I love the wood veneer arrows!

 

And now...how about a GIVEAWAY!!! I have an extra set of each of the three clear stamp sets in the Hipster Collection.

Just leave me a comment on this post by Friday, September 13th and I will randomly draw three winners to win a stamp set!

And be sure to check back tomorrow for an another awesome giveaway you won't want to miss!

Have a great day!

absolutely awesome

Hi there! Sorry it's been so quiet around here this summer. My kiddos start school next week and I really hope to get into a better blogging routine then.

First up today I have a card to share using the Simon Says Stamp Absolutely craft die and On Edge stamp set.

The words "awesome" were stamped with various colors of Hero Arts shadow inks. And those three adorable hearts in the corner are from the Simon Stamp Stamp Mini Hearts craft die...a definite favorite of mine!

The background was stamped with the versatile Hero Arts Pinstripe background using Fresh Peach Shadow Ink.

Also, today I am thrilled to have cards up on both the Simon Says Stamp blog and Hero Arts blog! Here's a couple peeks at those cards...

Thanks for stopping by...hope you have an awesome day!

Hero Arts Stamp Your Story Blog Hop

Hi there! Welcome to my stop on the Hero Arts Stamp Your Story Blog Hop! Today we are showcasing some of the fabulous products from the Stamp Your Story line, which can be found HERE in the Hero Arts Online Store.

My card features both the Journal Letters and Sketchbook Letters clear stamp sets along with the Happy Thoughts and Little Moments woodblock sets.

The label frame looks like it is one stamp, but I actually combined the bracket and striped frame images from Happy Thoughts to create it. The stamps were super easy to line up with the help of a stamp-a-ma-jig. And I used my favorite new Mint Julep ink, which i'm a little addicted to right now. ;) Don't you just love it when you discover a new use for a stamp?!? It makes me just a tad giddy!

The letters were stamped with Neon Orange ink and the heart with Neon Pink ink. To finish off the card I covered the letters with Glossy Accents and the heart with Crystal Stickles to add lots of shine and texture!

Be sure to leave a comment on this post for your chance to win a giveaway from Hero Arts! They will randomly select a winner from all comments left along the hop.

Your next stop on the hop is the very funny and talented Julie Ebersole!

If you come across any broken links or would like to start the hop from the beginning just head on over to the Hero Arts Blog.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!
