Best Friends

This week for my Rubbernecker Stamps Sweet Sunday post I pulled out Owen & Jeter.  I decided to make a little scene for this pair.


I colored the stamp using Copic markers and fussy cut it.  The paper I used for the sky came from the Echo Park Celebrate Spring collection that is available digitally from Snap Click Supply.  Digital paper is so much easier to store!  The hills are all scraps of different green papers I had in my basket.  The rain drops are actually petals of a rhinestone flower that I broke off because they were the perfect raindrop shape.  The flower only had three petals left since I had used the other half for the same thing on a different card.  This scene was just perfect for the rest of it.  I used the Best Friends Etc set for the sentiment and just stamped it directly on the patterned paper.

Don't forget to join in on our challenge.  You have the chance to win a gift certificate to use in the store.  With all of the new stamps and dies, you will have plenty to spend it on!

Very Best

Hello!  Welcome to my day to be featured on the Rubbernecker Stamps blog.  I have some bright, cheerful colors on my card for you today.


This is Clare and I thought she would look so adorable with these colors.  The are as bright and cheerful as her huge smile!  She was colored with Copic markers and fussy cut.  I have really got to make some time to figure out how to use the PixScan mat for my Cameo.  It would make life so much quicker and easier.  I used the Best Friends Etc set for the sentiment.  I layered some lace and ribbon and popped on this doily heart and called it done!

Don't forget to have a play in our challenges.  You have a chance to win cash to spend in the store and with the new dies and stamps being released, you don't want to miss out!

I think this card would make the sweetest friendship card.  Who wouldn't want to receive that swee smile in the mail?  This sweet bee was colored with Copic markers and cut out using the Silhouette Cameo.  I printed the sentiment.

Summer Fun

Our challenge this week at Creative Knockouts is summer fun.  Our sponsor is our very own Kelly so we could choose any image from any artist this week for the challenge!  How exciting is that?!  I haven't had much time for my Saturated Canary digital stamps and they were feeling quite neglected, so I pulled one out and dusted it off for this challenge.


This is Hammock Time and she was colored with Copic Markers.  I used the Silhouette Cameo to cut her out.  I used a bit of gold Wink of Stella on the book bindings and the baubles hanging from the ends of the hammock ties.  Krista will be closing her shop soon, but she will be offering new digital stamps at Make It Crafty very soon.  She is also selling a subscription for a year's worth of digital stamps.  You can check out her website for more information.  I know she was getting ready to end the sale, so you might want to pop over as soon as you can.

Kelly has generously offered $25 and a Close to My Heart gift pack as the prize for this challenge.  So be sure to play along before the end of the challenge to have a chance to win.

Christmas in July

Welcome to another monthly challenge at the Fabrika Fantsasy Challenge blog.  Our theme this month is Christmas in July.  I struggled with this one a little bit because it has been so hot and humid it was hard to switch gears and think about Christmas.


I used Cute Fox Cub for my project and colored it with Copic markers.  The background paper is from the I Love Winter collection by Echo Park.  It is available digitally from Snap Click Supply.

You have all month to play along with us.  There is a special drawing for all of the projects using a Fabrika Fantasy stamp and you have the chance to win extra prizes, so if you have one, use it to play along.
