Jolly

Welcome back!  This is my last Rubbernecker Stamps feature for the year.  We will return at the beginning of the year with more inspiration for you.


I used Santa With Tree and colored it with Copic markers.  I used the matching die to cut out the stamp and used the Nested Scallop with Holes dies to frame the stamp.  I also used the Nested Banner Stitched dies for the wooden word sentiment.  I colored the word black because the natural wood color didn't really pop.

It was a quick and easy card, but I love how it turned out!  Don't forget to check out all of the inspiration from the rest of my teamies.  If you need a Rubbernecker fix, pop into the group on Facebook and check out the inspiration there as well.

Happy Holidays!

I used Santa's Letter from Star Stampz and colored it with Copic markers.  The image was cut out using the Silhouette Cameo.  The background paper is from the Echo Park Winter Wishes collection which is available digitally from Snap Click Supply.  The sweet letter and envelope is from the Spellbinders Card Kit from November 2017.  I went with a non-traditional color palette and I love the way it turned out.

Jasmine

This week for my feature on the Rubbernecker Stamps blog, I pulled out Jasmine and colored her in some icy winter colors.


I colored her with Copic markers and cut her out using the matching die.  I stamped the Season of Gladness sentiment and cut it out using the stitched banners dies.  I also cut a mat of purple for the sentiment.  I also used the small stitched rectangle dies to cut a mat for the stamp.

Pop over to the blog and see what else my teamies have come up with.  You can also pop into the Facebook group to have a chat and look at all of the inspiration.

Winter Games v2.0

This week at Creative Knockouts, our theme is Snow Fun.  When I picked my image to use for this week, I didn't realize I had already chosen it for another project earlier this month.  Once I realized it, I decided to use the same layout with a different color palette to see which one I liked better.  You can find the other card here.


This is one of my favorite color combos for this time of the year.  I colored Winter Games 1 from Fabrika Fantasy with Copic markers and cut it out using the Silhouette Cameo.  The background paper is from the Carta Bella A Very Merry Christmas collection available digitally on Snap Click Supply.

I have to admit, I like the other card better!  What do you think?

It's a Little Earlie

It is time for the next challenge at the Crafty Gals Corner.  This challenge is to use Fall Colors on your project.


I used sweet Earlie Hedgehog Dandelion for my project.  I cut her out using my Silhouette Camoe to try to make her look like she was sitting on the edge of the die.  She was colored with Copic markers.  I may use this as a birthday card because she is holding dandelions, so you can "wish big" or give "best wishes".

Season's Tweetings

This week at Crafty Sentiments Designs we are all about snowmen.  Our snowman challenge will have you rolling snowballs and looking for the perfect lumps of coal for eyes and buttons.


I used Snowman and Friends for my project.  This sweet snowman has some friends visiting.  I colored the stamp with Copic markers.  The sentiment is computer generated and the background paper is from Echo Park's Winter Wishes collection that is available digitally from Snap Click Supply.

You have a chance to win some great Crafty Sentiments prizes. As always, you don't have to use a Crafty Sentiments stamp or image to play, but if you do, you have a chance to win even more.

Winter Wishes

This week for my feature on the Rubbernecker Stamps blog, I felt like it was time to start pulling out the winter stamps.  I am not quite ready to make Christmas cards just yet!


I used Snowman Skiing and colored it with Copic markers.  I used the matching die to cut it out.  The background paper is from Echo Park's Hello Winter collection available digitally on Snap Click Supply.  The sentiment is from a sentiment pack I have had for ages from Craftwork Cards.  I used the Nested Circle Scallop with Holes die and some gorgeous white glitter cardstock to mat the sentiment.  The background paper is also matted with the glitter cardstock.

Make sure you visit the blog to see what my teammates have made this week.
