Pretty Awesome

Welcome back to my Thursday post for One Crazy Stamper.  This month instead of a challenge, the design team is showing you some inspirational projects, so here's mine....


 
This sweet image is a new favorite of mine and I couldn't wait to color it up - this is Stamping Bella Tiny Town Amanda is Awesome.  I stamped the image on Copic Xpress It cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, then colored it with Copic sketch markers.  After matting and mounting the image on dp from Fab Scraps, I added clouds made with a Memory Box die, some ribbon accents and stamped the included sentiment directly on the dp.

Summertime and the Living is Easy!


It's been a beautiful summer this year - lots of sunshine mixed with the right amount of rain, which means the grass is growing, and growing, and growing.  Everyone can probably relate to this image from High Hopes Rubber stamps called Bob Loves Grass.

 
For One Crazy Stampers inspiration month, I have colored the image with my trusty Copic sketch markers then matted and mounted it with paper from My Mind's Eye.  The sentiment was included with the paper pad, and matched the feeling of the image perfectly.

Dream


It seems that this year is the year of weddings, so expect to see a few different cards from me in the next few weeks.  My card today is one that I made for my son to give to his best friend from high school, who got married this past weekend.

 
This is Stamping Bella's Close Ups I Do image that I have colored with Copic Sketch Markers, and then designed to look like a polaroid photo on the card front.  The sentiment is a Penny Black die and the dp is from Santoro and the pearls and buttons on the outfits were made with Viva Décor pearl pens.

One of a Kind


How is your summer going?  Here in southern Alberta we have been HOT, HOT, HOT, although they are predicating a couple of nice cool days ahead with the possibility of rain - I think we are all keeping our fingers crossed for the much needed moisture.

 
Today's card for One Crazy Stamper's Anything Goes challenge is another gorgeous Saturated Canary image from Little Darlings stamps.  This beauty is Ratatouile that I have stamped on Copic Xpress It cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, and then colored with Copic sketch markers.  The dp is from my stash, and the beautiful oval die and sentiment shape die are from Spellbinders.

Shopping Style

Here in Alberta, we are slowly melting our way through the summer heat as temperatures are in the high 20's and low 30's once again, so what better way to beat the heat then to go shopping in wonderful air conditioned malls.  My card today is a perfect fit.

 
This is Stamping Bella's Uptown Girl Charlotte Loves to Shop that I have stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Copic Xpress It cardstock and then colored with Copics. I gave the purse under her arm a layer of Wink of Stella clear to add a hint of glimmer.  The sentiment is included with the image, while buttons, dp and jute all are from my stash.
