Sneak Peak #1

We at The Stamp Shoppe are busy designing some images of our own to sell. Here is a sneak peak of one of our images that will be in stock, hopefully by the end of this week. There will also be some kids and winter images as well as the animals. This is a new and exciting venture for us and we hope that these images will bring a smile to your face!

Mojo Monday #89

I'm having fun with these sketches from Mojo Monday. This is the challenge that starts out the month of June. I had this peeking bunny all colored from Stamp Avie and was trying to decide what to do with it... So perfect for this challenge. This Rachelle Anne Miller stamp was colored with Copics. Don't forget to ground your image with some grass or color, so they don't hover on your paper. This Daisy paper from Lasting Impressions went well with the daisies on the Watering can. Add some faux stitches with the ScorBug on the green strip of cardstock & Layer some Prima flowers for an accent. Now I am ready to submit it for the challenge. Check this these sketches out. They gave me inspiration...hopefully you too! Keep inspired!

Popsicles?

Here's another New Hambo stamp from their recent release. I have to laugh everytime I look at it! I used the sentiment from Hambo about summer since having a stand is something we all did as kids in the summertime. Other sayings I thought would be fitting are: "Please don't be mad at me" or "I'm glad you are my FRIEND" or "Every cloud has it's silver lining". I could give the card to my mom and say..."I'm glad we're in business together!" (lol) I found a cool link from my friend Jane's blog that has lots of neat sketches and used one for this card. That blog is mojomonday.blogspot.com. Be sure to check out their sketches if you are stumped for ideas. I used Copics to color the image and highlighted it with my inkssentials white gel pen. Papers are from Lasting Impressions. I added some faux stitches and some dew drops to finish the card. Be sure to stop by again to see more from Hambo!

Hugs Sand Kisses!

Hambo stamps is fast becoming my favorite stamp company. They just had a new stamp release and these stamps are a few of them. CUTE! CUTE! The stamps are cute and many of them have sentiments that go perfectly with the images. I'm sure you will be seeing more of these cuties in the near future. Many samples are at the store as well. Look for Hambo classes every month at The Stamp Shoppe. Jane is always making great new cards for these fun, inspiring classes! TTFN
