Kraftin ' Kimmie Stamps - Let them eat cupcakes

To really make a stamp pop try a subtle matting and a lot of white. This great stamp set is by Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps and is called "Let them eat cupcakes". A simple sentiment makes this the perfect card for any reason, be it birthday or just because.

Your next Stamp - Cute Home

Whether you're celebrating a friend's new home or sending a note to a long lost pen-pal this "Cute House (CNYS423) stamp set is perfect. A great Canadian stamp company, Your Next Stamp, brings you this versatile stamp set. One of my go-to papers is Neenah 80lbs Super Smooth Coverstock paired with Black ink - India Ink by Hero Arts. The black is rich and crisp and the Copic markers blend well on these sheets without a worry. 80lb coverstock is great when you are fussy cutting around an image and it will hold up well.

Copic Color Chart:

Yellow: Y11 Y13 Y19

Blue: B000 B00

Green : YG03 YG05 YG06 YG07

Red: R14 R29 R39

Grey Roof and Steps: C1 C3

Windows: N2 N4

Brown : E23 E25

For the background I used a fun rainbow themed paper I found in Lawn Fawn's "Really Rainbow" 6x6 paper pad.

                                   

To create the grass I found a scrap piece of solid green card stock and put it through my Sizzix Big Shot using the Your Next Stamp "Chunky Grass Die".

You'll find the clouds paper in this oldie but a goodie of a paper pad by American Crafts called #Summer. 

 I used red cardstock to mat the piece and cut out the word Hello with a die that I had in my case, unfortunately I don't know the brand but many companies have great "Hello" dies. I used the same die to also cut out a 2 matching pieces of foam so that it could be layered.

For a hidden fun feature I used the flowers for the inside of the card as I found them to be a tad bit disproportionate compared to the tree and house.

Photoplay Oh Canada

Having enjoyed crafting and creating for many years I've been wanting to try creating a blog so that I could share my craft with others. I love to share ideas and get ideas from fellow crafters.  Although I may not be the best at creative writing I've decided to try and give it a whirl. I hope I can share my passion with you for years to come.

Today i'm sharing with you a card I created as part of the Scrap of Paradise design team using the Photoplay Oh Canada line and stamp set. I colored the moose using Copic markers then fussy cut him out. I use 110lb weight card stock for most of my stamped images as they hold up better. For this moose I also colored the edges of the white cardstock black for a better finish as the white stood out too much. I used a vellum sentiment by core'dinations called Vellum Quotes and Titles Celebrate pack which has 60 different vellum sheets. I placed the vellum in the window which I raised slightly using foam squares over the Canada leaf patterned paper giving the Canada leaves a softer look. To create the window I used the We R memory keepers frame punch board.
