Wuff You with D2BA

Hello Stamping Friends!!

I have a super fun card to share with you today using some lovely products from Dare 2B Atrzy!!

For my adorable card today I used the new Ruff Day stamp set!!
This adorable pup was so much fun to color!!  To add some fun to the image, I thought it was a fun idea to color the pups patches with some fun colors!

The paw prints were stamped with Sunset Yellow Ink!!  I also used Sunset Yellow Patterned Paper to add a yellow border around my main layer!

I love the corresponding "i wuff you" sentiment!
I thought this would be a super fun card to send either my son when we go to the cabin or send to my nephew!!

Bright and fun card for a kid!!

Here's a look at the entire Ruff Day stamp set:

Thanks for Friendship with HBS

Hello Stamping Friends!
It's my day once again to post on the Honey Bee Stamps Blog!!

I enjoy sending random cards occasionally to those special friends to just say hi, let them know how special they are or even just to thank them for their friendship.

So for my card today I decided to create a sweet card for a friend.

I started out by die cutting "Thanks" from my card base.

I then used the Thanks stamp set to create the "for your amazing friendship" sentiment!

I added some distress inking around the die cut thanks and sentiment!

I then used some of my circular die cuts to add some random accents to the card!
I really like how it turned out!!

The shaker part of the "thanks" makes it so fun!
I finished off the card by adding some sequins to the card base!


"Bee" sure to check out all the lovely products Honey Bee Stamps has to offer!
Happy Stamping!!

YNS Feature Day

Hello Stamping Friends!

It's Feature Day at Your Next Stamp!!

Feature Day Theme...
Coffee, Tea - You and Me!

YNS has so many fun drink related sets!

I honestly do not own one, yes sad, but I'm not a coffee drinker.

So then instead I focused on creating a friendship card!

As even though I'm not a coffee drinker, I still love getting together with my coffee drinking friends and instead drink water or hot cocoa!!

I used the "Best Friends Forever" sentiment from the Puppy Love stamp set!!
 Isn't the design fun?!

I had so much fun using the Ring Trio Die, to create the left side of the card!!!
I finished the card off, by adding some fun glittery gumdrops!!

So with our Anything But a Card challenge at SweetStamps.com, I thought it would be a perfect time to get a start on one!! 

So I created this adorable penguin tag:
I used the adorable new Chillin' Penguin stamp set!  I love the large penguin from this set, he is so sweet!!

I also used the new Snow Much Snowflakes stamp set to stamp the fun snowflakes behind the penguin!
The "Just For You" sentiment it part of the Banner Girl stamp set!

I finished up my card by adding some homemade Enamel Dots!!!
Yep! I said homemade!!  I absolutely LOVE all of the Piccolo 3D Enamel Gels from SS!!  You can see all of the amazing colors here!

Do What You Love with HBS

Hello Stamping Friends!
It's my day once again to post on the Honey Bee Stamps Blog!!


I am featuring a two page layout today for my post using some of my HBS stamps!!
 I absolutely love the Brush Grunge Alpha!!
You can create endless amounts of sentiments!!

I also love all the other awesome sets as well!
They are so much fun to mix and match!!


In the corners that would touch, I stamped the swirl from the Flakey Sentiments stamp set.  Thought it added the perfect touch.  Kind of ties in the swirls from the paper.


I started by first creating the "Do What You Love!" sentiment! 

I mainly used the Brush Grunge Alpha set, but masked and only inked up the "you" from the "you are loved" sentiment in the Beautiful Life stamp set!
 
 I also added some hearts around the sentiment, which are also part of the  Beautiful Life stamp set!

I loved the stars along with the star sentiment, which are part of the Life Right Now stamp set.  Thought it would be a perfect fit for this layout!
 As I was ready to stamp it, I thought it would be super fun to create the "super" from the Brush Grunge Alpha, to create a "super star"sentiment!

My little girl loves being on stage, she sure thinks she's a star!!
I also added some stars

I then thought it would be appropriate to add the "You Are Beautiful" sentiment from the Beautiful Life stamp set!

Lastly, I  decided to create the "Tap & Ballet" title with the Brush Grunge Alpha!
 Isn't it fun how these sets can be mixed and matched together so nicely!

I love it!!

"Bee" sure to check out all the lovely products Honey Bee Stamps has to offer!
Happy Stamping!!
