Collage of Me


There have been several collages on blogs that I have visited and I decided to make one for my small stamping studio.
  • I punched squares from Cherry Cobbler, Not Quite Navy and Early Espresso using the 1 1/4" square punch.
  • I attached the squares to some watercolor paper left over from my sons art projects.
  • I stamped and colored a few things, made some small punch art, embossed, used the Big Shot, etc.
Over all I'm happy with it.

Sense of Time

Sometimes a photo just doesn't do a card justice! The card base is Kraft/Crumb Cake, matting, ink and cogs are Chocolate Chip. I random stamped the clock and gears on the card front, sponged the edges, then sprayed it with gold smooch spray, I punched my cogs and sprayed them as well (twice, I wanted more gold). After stamping the phrase I sprayed this as well then distressed the edges. The large cog in the upper corner is on dimensionals. On the inside I stamped the gears once, but did not add spray.

I finally bought this set and now I am stumped for ideas for cards. . . does that ever happen to you? I guess I'll need to google the set and see what others have done with this, if you have this set leave a comment and I'll check out what you have done with this set.

My son who made the Lots of Bots- Steampunk card on May 6ths, posts wants to remake the card using this set.

Motorcycle- Black and White

I was going for easy and simple. The card base is Whisper White with a front of Basic Black that has been run through the Big Shot with the folder Square Lattice. The Motorcycle is stamped with Stazon on Whisper White, with the edges sponged. Image is layered on Basic Gray. Party Hearty is stamped in Real Red and punched with the Word Window punch, layered on a Modern Label punch in Basic Gray. The Cogs are also Basic Gray and punch with the new punch Extra-Large Cogs Double, from the summer mini.

This card is one of my Tuesday Open Studio Cards, the only change I made(and it is for the better) I used Versamark and Black embossing powder for the motorcycle. So come over on Tuesday and make a card or two, cards are pre-cut ready to stamp and put together, cost $1.50 a card.
