SSCB Favorite Stamp

I made this card for the Sweet Stampin Challenge Blog....the challenge was to use your favorite stamp! Well, most of my stamps I really do dearly love each and every one of them....or I would've never bought them, LOL!!! But I really love this stamp set from Stampin' Up! called Inspired by Nature. It makes really fast cards because it's a double mounted background sized stamp! I colored it with markers and used a retired stamp set for the sentiment!!! I used the color spritzer tool with a chocolate chip marker and tore a scrap piece of Old Olive card stock to help give it a little texture! I hope you like it,thanks for taking a peek! Have a great evening! ;)





Recipe for card:


  • Card stocks :WW,Old olive and Regal Rose
  • Inks: Garden Green,Early Espresso and Close to Cocoa
  • SU! Markers: Old Olive,Regal Rose and Chocolate Chip
  • Large and Scallop Oval Punches
  • Regal Rose Stitched Ribbon
  • Stamps Sets: Inspired by Nature and So Many Sayings

OWH Sketch Challenge # 28


I woke to find that my card samples are featured over on the Operation Write Home Stars and Stamps Blog!!! This is for sketch challenge #28. I made these samples a few months back, so I will do my best at telling you the items for all my cards; if I'm able.



I used Sweet Pea DSP along with the Sweet Pea Stitched Felt, both retired now. I used the stamp sets 'Well Scripted' and 'Sweetheart'.



For this card sample I turned the sketch and just used some DSP called 'Welcome Neighbor' that is retired as well!



This card features one of my all time favorite stamp sets called 'Inspired by Nature'. The sentiment is from another stamp set that I love called 'Upsy Daisy'.

 Well, thank you for visiting me. I hope you have a fabulous Sunday ;)

OK!!! So this will be my last card for the Operation Write Home Rebel Challenge!! It's been a great ride....I've had a ton of fun....but now the party's over!!! LOL!!! Anyways the challenge was to make your own background paper. I only have two background stamps to chose from. I know you can take an image and randomly stamp all over the card stock to achieve the same look!! but I'll admit....too lazy for that tonight!! ;)
PS~ I forgot to say....I have made a similar card,but it was a scalloped circle one,but very similar....so I hope it still fits in the challenge since it was freshly made!!hehehe! ;)
Thanks for stopping by and have a great rest of the evening!!!
