Happy Birthday to the World's Greatest Dad

Happy Thursday stampers!

 

And even more importantly, Happy Birthday to my DAD!!!

 

Today I'm sharing this post over at SSINK.  Be sure to head over to check things out...we have an AWESOME design team this year!

 

As soon as I saw the Urban Underground Suite and Nail It stamp set, I knew I HAD to have them just for my dad!  My dad is quite the handy man and pretty amazing with his woodworking tools, so these items are perfect for him!

 

The first project I'm sharing is his birthday card.  I LOVE the added dimension from the Hexagons Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.  And the Urban Underground Embellishments are the BEST!

 

Supplies Used:

Paper ~ Basic Black, Very Vanilla, Delightful Dijon, Urban Underground DSP

Ink ~ Basic Black, Deligtful Dijon

Stamp Sets ~ Urban District, B.Y.O.P

Other Supplies ~ Urban Underground Embellishments, Hexagons Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder

 

Next up is a fun little gift certificate holder using the Mini Treat Bag Tinlits.  I CASE'ed the catalog on this one, making the gift bag into a fun little tool belt and pocket.

Supplies Used:

Paper ~ Kraft, Silver Foil, Real Red, Crushed Curry, Pacific Point, Early Espresso

Ink ~ StazOn

Stamp Sets ~ Urban District, Nailed It

Other Supplies ~ Mini Treat Bag Thinlits, Build It Framelits, Layering Circles Framelits, Project Life Corner Punch

 

These were such fun projects to make and I can't wait to give them to my dad later today!

Simple Succulent Love Story

We're back with day 3 of the 2017 Occasions Catalog!

The SSINK Design Team has some beautiful creations to share with you today using the Succulent Garden Suite.


I'm not usually excited for many flower stamp sets, but this one caught my eye right and away and I HAD to have it!  Not only are the stamps pretty, but the coordinating framelits are awesome!



Supplies Used:

Paper ~ Whisper White

Ink ~ Bermuda Bay, Old Olive, Calypso Coral, Smoky Slate

Stamp Set ~ Oh So Succulent

Other Supplies ~ Succulent Framelits, Rhinestone Basic Jewels, Hexagon Dynamic Textured Impressions EF

 

I very lightly inked up the Hexagon embossing folder with Smoky Slate to create a subtle background.  I was just what I needed to break up some of the white.  Have you tried inking up your embossing folders to create your own unique back ground?

 

Thanks for stopping by today!  Just a couple more days and the Occasions Catalog will be LIVE and ready for you to order your crafting heart out!

 

Happy Stamping!

I hope you all had a safe and Happy New Year!  It's back to the grind today...never fun after a string of holidays.  But it IS great to be back with the girls at SSINK for this month's color challenge!


I just got the super adorable Bookcase Builder stamp set and thought it would be pretty darn cute to use with these colors!

Supplies Used:

Paper ~ Whisper White, Blushing Bride, Mint Macaron

Ink ~ Mint Macaron, Blushing Bride, Crumb Cake
