Start to Finish - Beachy Shaker Card - Sister Stamps - Release 28 Aulii

We've made it to day two and I could not wait to color the Sandcastle and the super cute Aulii, she is so precious with her little starfish.  I thought this stamp pairing would be perfect for a a sandy beachy shaker card.  Shaker cards always make me nervous but I'm getting better at it, I used foam sheets to create dimension between the acetate and backing, the space in between provides enough space to pack your shaker with lots of glittery goodness.  I used Pink Paislee Nantucket collection, Mama Elephant Peek a Frame dies, decorative sand and yellow sequins.  Hope you enjoy and see ya tomorrow!

Start to Finish - Card with Puffy Stickers - Sister Stamps - Release 28 Makai and Hiilei

I am super excited to kick off the latest Sister Stamps Release with this summery card featuring Makai and Hiilei, I love how unique these stamps are and the variety of "underwater" projects you can make with this pair.  I could not resist using some of the cute puffy stickers I have been collecting for my planner.  I always like using new products I have been haulin' and put them to good use, I have also used some Heidi Swapp paper from the Mixed Company paper pad, a kelp die from Magnolia Doohickey Volume 1 and the Avery Elle Stay Fresh die set using the "Aloha" sentiment.  Hope you all enjoy my project!!!

Sister Stamp Release #27 "Pua"

Here's my second project of this Sister Stamps Release #27.  This is probably my all time favorite Sister Stamps. This is the lovely Pua and I just LOVE the way this card came out.  Here in this video I share a little stamping trick I learned from Kristina Werner.  To get your dye inks to stamp less splotchy, first stamp on Versamark then the die ink, the Versamark will prime your stamp, and you will have a smoother stamped image.  Hope you all enjoy and please visit the other designers take on this card.

Sister Stamps Release #27 - "Kaleo"

Here's my first project of this Sister Stamps Release #27.  I just love this image so much and I CANNOT wait to share the next image in this release, actually both the stamps would go so well together for so many occasions.  But back to Kaleo, I wanted to kick start this card by using some dies I just recieved, I used the Magnolia Doohickey dies volume 4.  I love making the background for this card and layering up all the different pieces.  You can watch my Youtube video here: and here's my card: Please check out all the other designers blogs for their take on this stamp: Jenny - http://sisterstamps.blogspot.com/ Jenny's You Tube: https://www.youtube.com/user/crazyforpaper Eva:   http://craftingthisandthat.blogspot.com/ Debi:   http://craftybuzz.blogspot.com/ Linda:   http://simpleandsassycreations.blogspot.com/ Linda's You Tube:   https://www.youtube.com/user/Lfundoo

Sister Stamps: Release #26 "Mitsuyo"

I am back with the second stamp of this release and today I am sharing "Mitsuyo".  You can stamp the images separately using Mitsuyo or the crane alone, I chose to stamp both and I just love the way this card came out.  I wanted to use vibrant colors to match the red on the crane's head so I busted out with my Papertrey Ink Cover Plate die in the Quatrefoil design and used a light and dark orange cardstock.  I also layered the Spellbinders Nestabilities Labels 3 die on top.  I used the Papertrey Ink Mega Mixed Messages stamp set to stamp out "Hi There"  I just think the sentiment is so perfect for this card!  Here's some pictures: Watch my YouTube video here: http://youtu.be/BvrNMzV4q-w This is the last release for this year, make sure to watch out for the cuteness that will ensue in 2015, you will not be dissappointed!  Release #26 will be available 11/1/14!!!  Also, make sure you check out  and subscribe to the new Sister S...

Sister Stamps Release #24 "Leilani"

WELCOME to the the Sister Stamps Release #24, Day #3 My last project and I saved the best for last.  I just wanna thank Jenny and the rest of the Sister Stamps team for letting me take part in this great release.  It was really fun working with these images and stretching my imagination.  (LOL not so good for my MESSY craftroom, but creativity is messy AND beautiful at the same time!) Awwwwww! Little "Leilani", is my FAVORITE image of this release!!! The pigtails, her sweet face, and awwwww her little shave ice fell down, poor thing!!! Please check out my YouTube video here, I also do a quick tutorial on my new way of coloring black hair!!!  Coloring black hair is so intimidating so I wanted to show how i get the "shiny" effect, it is super easy once you see how easily it can come together. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AoDRiTE0Mcg Here are some close up pictures of my project. I love digging into my supplies and unearthing items that...
