Mixed Bunch Stamps Make Perfect Handmade Greeting Cards

Hello My Stamping Friends,

It’s summer time on the island and the beaches are getting a little more crowded, but that’s just fine with me.  It’s so much fun sitting on my beach chair and watching all the fun, laughter and smiles.  It seems like once people get to the beach all problems that you may be experiencing in your everyday life just disappear.

I have had so much fun making these Mixed Bunch cards.  Stacking these cards together they look  like (to me at least) a beautiful  tropical flower paradise.

Same idea different colors ~ how fun is this?  You have to try it! 🙂

What a great gift this would make.  Stamp a Mixed Bunch in all different colors, wrap them together with a ribbon, and you have the perfect handmade present for that special someone to enjoy.

Hope you enjoyed your visit to Stampin Upon The Island today!

Happiest Birthday Wishes Stamp Set for a Fun Handmade Birthday Card

Hello My Stamping Friends,

Today I will be making a birthday card using the Happiest Birthday Wishes clear mount stamp set.  My goal for this card is fun, colorful, and cool.  Well it’s for my 15 year old nephew, so it has to be cool ~ LOL

I just love these clear stamp sets.  They are the best for storage (you can have soooo much more and not need alot of space)  and the clean up is even so much better then using the wood mounted stamps (well that’s my opinion) and just to let you know I have a “ton” of wood mounted stamp.

Since this stamp was just a word in different fonts I took the stamp and used markers and colored directly onto the stamp in the colors that I wanted instead of using a stamp pad.   Your clean up is a snap also when you use  the spritz cleaner and stamp scrubber, your stamps look brand new 🙂

Saying Happy Easter With A Handmade Greeting Card

This year I am making a simple Easter Card.  I will be using one stamp that is a oldie but goodie that I have had for awhile from a  now retired Stampin’ Up! set called Festive Four, along with some patterned paper, solid pink cardstock  and the finishing touches of ribbon and a bow.

2012 easter card

I stamped the image with Rich Cocoa Memento dye ink, then colored with pastel colored  Tombow markers and what is so cute is that they this pack of markers is called jelly bean. Oh well I used it for Easter eggs instead 🙂  Using these bright colors makes these eggs just as fun to decorate as if you were coloring real eggs and without the mess that usually goes along with egg coloring.

I can’t wait for Easter this year.  I will be cooking for our family and I know it will be a day filled with lots of love & laughter.

~ Wishing You and for Family a Blessed Easter ~
