This little guy is peeking out to say "HI". Meet Brutus. He is a High Hopes stamp. He is so cute, you would love to cuddle up with him. Using the window cards from Heidi Grace make a perfect background. The circles on the cards are flocked so it feels like your petting Brutus :0) Adding to the outside of the card, I added some flowers with my own flare. The centers have the "rain dots" from Cloud 9 with a brad in the middle. Using ribbon to make a "leaf" which I attached to the back of the flower with the brad. The friend saying is from Hero Arts. Hope Brutus added a little warm fuzzy to your day!
Here's another bee from Peddler's Pack wanting to get a peek at you! Using the paper from the same Cosmo Cricket pack that was used on the previous bee...what fun papers. Using the Heidi Grace flowers with the brown shear ribbon as the center. Heidi Grace ribbon was also used as an accent to the card. Not always a lot of work, but the embellishments always enhance the cards. If you feel that your cards need a little something more, try adding flowers, ribbons, brads, pearls, gems...usually that is all it needs. Continue to bee inspired!

Another quick, fun card with these Heidi Grace flocked cards! I turned the card on it's side for a different look. The flower image is by Whipper Snapper and is colored with Copics and White Gel pen. This image has a square already doodled around it...so that finishes of the inside of the card!
I'm so loving these Heidi Grace flocked cards! They make a really quick and cute card. For this one I stamped a Whipper Snapper image on white cardstock and colored it with Copic Markers and highlighted it with the white gel pen. Then I doodled around the image so it looks finished on the inside as well. I used the Cuttlebug to make a little tag, stamped a Hero Arts greeting on it and trimmed it to my desired length with a decorative scissors. I *attached* it to my card with a gem and some hidden glue dots. For the ribbon I cut a little slit along the fold of the card and tied myself a big cheery bow. Hope it makes you smile!! ~michelle~
Who can't use a little advice from a snowman this year?! This fun stamp is by Inky Antics and is colored with Copic Markers and Copic's At You Spica Glitter Pens. The designer paper is by Heidi Grace Designs. The only other embellishment on this is a tiny button sewed on the card with embroidery floss. Just a little tip.....no naked buttons on cards....finish them off with some ribbon or coordinating floss to make them pop! Stay Warm! ~michelle~
A few post ago, you saw this stamp as one. I decided to add a twist and separate the componants of the stamp. I used the one bee and cut the hap-bee holidays sentiment off. The blowing swirls were part of the snowflake rub-ons we have at the Stamp Shoppe. They give the real feeling of cold. I used the rub-ons on the new Fancy Pants snow paper and used the snow background from cuttlebug. Adding a little glitter and small gemstones from Hero Arts complete the sparkling chill of snow. Even though it's cold outside, hopefully this card can warm your heart!!
This card features Cuttlebug's Allegro Embossing Folder that has been lightly sanded on the designer paper.

Stamp is by Whipper Snapper and is colored with Copic Markers and highlighted with a Inkssentials Opaque White Pen. The Glittery Flowers are by Heidi Grace and come with the little brads.

Here is another sample with the flocked cards! For this card the frame is made with Nestabilities and faux stitched to add depth and interest. The chicken image is by WhipperSnapper and is actually stamped on the inside card panel, so when you open the card you see the entire image of the chicken sitting on the swing! The flowers are by Heidi Grace and have a sprinkling of glitter for fun and come with the minibrads! ~michelle~
We have some new, FUN stuff at the store!! The flocked window cards from Heidi Grace is something new. I cut off the back of the card to use on the front of this card. The Alphabet punchouts are also from Heidi Grace. I used the scallop edge of the large alphabet to accent the edge of the card. Then I used the square that I punched out the "b"from as a background for my stamped image. The birthday penguin and the sentiment are from The Cat's Pajamas clear birthday set. These are fun stamps that don't require a lot of coloring. The sets have images that coordinate with each other. The possibilities are endless!! We will be show casing some of the new stuff this week here on the blog. Check it out and come in to see the full selection.
