New Stamps Anyone??
Hello everyone! Does it seem like all I do is apologize for being absent lately?? I promise it's all for a good cause and I'll be able to share soon! But today . . . I did get some time to stamp so I wanted to share.
Maria from Kitchen Sink Stamps has some amazingly great stamps to be released soon - if you liked the Christmas sets I used (and who wouldn't??!!), you will LOVE these! I cannot wait to get my hands on them . . . but until then I decided to try some Valentine's Day cards with the sets that I have. I used Never a Loss 4 Words, Playful Alphabet and Backgrounds & Borders to make these 2 cards. I'm not too proud to say that these 2 cards (among other things like laundry) took me ALL day!), it really must be true that stamping must be done often to do
well! LOL! The first card may look strangely familiar in layout . . . I did a very similar card at Christmas time seen here. I also got to use those very cool square crystals (on the "u") again - so neat! And I used a bunch of some beautiful Swarovski crystals I got from ChristieAnyway, stay tuned to the Kitchen Sink Stamps website for the 3 new sets being released one week from today!
Cardstock: Rose Red, Chocolate Chip, WW, Regal Rose, Real Red, Memory Box DP (Holiday Brights Collection) Stamps: Never a Loss 4 Words, Playful Alphabet, Backgrounds & Borders, Inks: Rose Red, Regal Rose, Real Red, Chocolate Chip, Accessories: Rose grosgrain, Red Grosgrain, dimensionals, Swarovski crystals, square crystals, paper piercer
Both of these cards are lovely. Sometimes I get inspired and can whip a card out in 20 minutes sometimes it takes all day.
