Would You Ever Guess Wednesday - Sew Stamper

First of all I want to wish everyone a

very safe and happy 4th of July!! 

So for today's project at My Cricut Craft Room

I chose to use the technique, and this weeks

technique was to use the Sew Easy, Sew Stamper

or Sew Ribbon.  I chose the Sew Stamper.

I bought my Sew Stamper a few months ago and have never

used it, so I thought this was my opportunity!!

Here is a sneak peak

We went to a retirement party over the weekend,

for one of the guys at my husband's work.

 It was a western themed, party, so my hubby asked me to make a

western card. I chose this adorable cowboy from

3 Birds on Parade, cut at 4".

The Sew Stamper only comes with black ink.

Erica, taught us a great technique.

Once you stamp your project, pour

embossing powder over your stiches

and then heat set with a heat gun,

and voila, you have your stiches in any

color you want!

 

I used a really cool embossing enamel that I got

in a recent order from Erica's Craft Room Store.

It is copper embossing enamel from

Stampendous.  It has different colors in it.

Very cool!!

The "Wanted" paper is from the

Cowboy Up paper stack from Best Creations.

I thought it was perfect!!

I cut it down to fit the card, and inked

the edges with Tea Dye Distress Ink.

I added some eyelets in the corners and some twine.

Anyway, as you can see, I used

the Sew Stamper to stamp the stiches

around the base of the card.

My lines are a little crooked, but

I will practice using my Sew Stamper

because I really like the way it came out.

Card Creating Tuesday - Easter

For today, the design team was asked to make Easter card

using GREEN, YELLOW and one other color. 

My third color is PINK

Here is a sneak peak!

For today's card I used Art Philosophy for the card base.

It was cut at 5".  I embossed the base with a

Simply Charmed Cuttlebug folder.

The three frames were cut from Elegant Edges at varying sizes.

The card base and the frames were all cut from

Close to My Heart paper pack called "Sweet Pea". 

That is also the name of my Spoiled Dog #1!!

The circle was cut using a Spellbinders die called Lacy Circles.

The was embossed with another Cuttlebug folder.

The paper is Coordinations Color Core cardstock,

which I sanded to bring out the lighter pink color.

Finally this funny little bunny was cut at

3.5" from 3 Birds on Parade.

She was mounted use an action wobble.

Here is a little video to show how she wobbles!!

I followed the card sketch over at

Theme Day Thursday - Wedding

Today is

If you have not guessed, today's theme is WEDDING!!

My inspiration for this card was a card I saw at Bed, Bath and Beyond.  I love the way the card had gems to simulate the champagne bubbles.  When I saw it, I knew I wanted to do the same thing!!

For this card I used Art Philosophy, Sweethearts and 3 Birds on Parade.

 The card base and label were cut from Art Philosophy at 5"

The champagne glasses were cut from Sweethearts at 2.70" H

It is hard to tell in the photos, but I used clear plastic

packaging to cut the base layer of the glasses.

I used the deep cut plate to cut the plastic and the glitter paper.

The sentiment was cut from 3 Birds on Parade at .55" H

I used Coordinations, DCWV and glitter cardstock.

I added the gem bubbles and some glitter tulle.

I also used 2 different embossing folders,

one is Sizzix and the other is Cuttlebug.
