Whoop

Whoop Here It IS!

I've been waiting for this stamp for a LONG time.  Thank you to Technique Junkies for making it.   I'm ure you all remember a song by Tag Team from the early 1990's that is still loved by all.  It has worked its way into our everyday day conversations.   It is about time it made its card making debut. 

I wanted to appear as if the moon was saying "Whoop", so I used white pigment ink to sponge a grey card stock.   I added a bit of yellow and grey to give it a spooky feel.  Splattered the white ink to create some stars in the background.  All it needed was a character wish a bit of personality.   With Halloween around the corner, I chose this too cute to spook ghost.   I hope you love it.  I know this stamp is going to be a favorite in my collection.

My Bones Shake

Happy Friday the 13th! 

 Do you have some spooky plans tonight?  Maybe it is put on a scary movie and make some Halloween cards?  Halloween is one of my favorite holidays.  What isn't there to love? You get to dress silly, eat candy, and spend time with friends and family without having a stressful lead up. 

I used Skelly from Trinty stamps to create this skeleton card.  I thought it looked like he was dancing.  What song do you think he is listening to? 

The design team has a bunch of projects to help inspire your Halloween projects.  I hope you will take a second and see their makes.   If you are inspired to shop you can save 10% on all stamps using the code TJ10Chris

Happy Happy Birthday Postage Collage -freestyle

Hello friends, 

Have you jumped on the postage collage craze yet?    This postage collage die is created by Waffle flower.  They have several stencil sets that coordinate with the die that make themed cards for Independence Day, Fall and Christmas.  I'm sure this is just the start.  They are really fun. 

What caught my imagination is all the small stamps that you can use create cute scenes like this.  It reminds me of a college photograph.   I used critters from two different stamp sets  (Mama Elephant and Studio Katia) to make this birthday card.  I had to do some masking but the end result is just pure magic. 
What would stick into each of your postage "cells"?
