I am...Camper Crazy!

I still cannot put this stamp set away...it is just too fun! It is the Camper Crazy stamp set from Close to My Heart (CTMH). These little campers (it comes with three) are so fun to color. I have been paper piecing them. I also used the Timberline paper pack from CTMH as well.

I  used some sparkles for the "stars" in the sky and created a cute corner banner. It really does remind me of a night out camping!

Cute, right? The set also comes with the tree and cloud images, as well as a few sentiments. 

Here is the inside of the card:

Happy Camper!

So, I've said before that I am not big on Valentine's Day-but I love making Valentine's Cards. My Hunny isn't home, so I made a last minute card and sent him a pic of it anyhow.

I absolutely ADORE this stamp set! I have a small obsession with these old campers (*glampers*) and when I saw this set from Close To My Heart, I literally squeeled! Isn't it the cutest?? It's called "Camper Crazy". There are lots more images with it to, including another darling camper. I did some paper piecing and I really like how it came out. 

I have been so busy here lately. I have actually been stamping quite a bit but haven't had much time to post. I have so many cards I want to share, so hopefully this weekend I can get some posted. If you haven't already, go "like" my Facebook page here. I post there pretty frequently. 

Well, this gal is off to watch a movie. My movie dates (my little boys) already fell asleep on me. I bought the movie "Gravity" with Sandra Bullock. Looks really good!

Seriously...Isn't it the cutest set?? I am still squeeling!

Masking Technique

I am back with another card using my favorite love stamp! I seriously think it's just the cutest thing! I CASED this card from Robin Feicht (Stamping Country). I loved how she created the moon using the masking technique and it is perfect for this sentiment.

To create the big, bright moon, you will need to take a scratch piece of paper and cut a circle out of it. I used my circle framelits (the 2 3/8 in. circle). Item # 130911

This creates a mask for you to lay over your card and stamp.

I used the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set (Item #130517) to stamp inside the circle. Once you've created your moon, lay the cut out circle over the moon and sponge around in with a few different colors to create the sky. When you remove the circle, you now have a cool looking moon! Cool, right?

For the gray moon, I did the same thing on my last card here. I used the Chalk Talk Framelits (Item #129983) to cut out the sentiment. And I love this sentiment!

Supplies used:

Paper: Night of Navy, Smoky Slate, Whisper White, Smoky Slate (little moon)

Stamps: Gorgeous Grunge, Love You to the Moon

Ink: Night of Navy, Island Indigo, Basic Gray, Real Red, Crushed Curry

Tools: Circle Framelits, Chalk Talk Framelits, Small Heart Punch

Pretties: Basic Jewel Rhinestones, Stickles (non SU), Red Ribbon (non SU)

Hope everyone is having a great weekend. I have lots of plans this weekend. Last night I went to see "Lone Survivor". Let me tell you...if you go, bring lots of tissue! What a tear jerker. Gets you right to the core from the very beginning. Awesome movie. In fact, I am going again on Wednesday with my Hunny. He is still at work so I want to go with him when he gets home. I am anxious to see his reaction. It is different for the guys who have been there-I can't imagine. I love our troops...

Tonight I get to meet Molly Ringwald! Yep! I am going to her concert here in town and afterwards, I get to help her with her CD signing! So cool! I have watched all her 80's movies forever! I can't wait. Come back soon and I'll tell you how it goes.

Thanks for stopping by!

To the Moon and Back!

Hope everyone had an awesome weekend! We pretty much hung out at the house, except for yesterday. My little guys wanted to go on a "date" with me so we went to CiCi's for some pizza (I know-not so real, huh?) But I couldn't resist the buffalo chicken pizza calling my name! It was delish.

After eating, we went to the park to feed the ducks and let the boys run off some energy. Got some ice cream and came back home for jammies and a movie! It was nice. I love those boys to the moon and back!

Speaking of moons! This image is the reason I bought this stamp set. I think it is the cutest! After I finished the card, I realized that smokey slate would've probably made a better moon, but oh well. I like it anyways. I stamped the moon a second time on basic gray cardstock, cut it out and glued it over the original image. Added some white gel pen and stickles. I colored the sentiment with my Stamp-n-Write markers. Punched a small heart and added a candy dot. Love those little things! The gray, textured layer was created using an embossing folder that will be available during Sale-A-Bration. (starting January 26th)
