Sister Stamps Release #22 - Wedding

Today I'm featuring Sister Stamps' new Wedding image and I love the details of this stamp! Even with all the details, it was easy to color because I kept most of the bride white. I used one of my favorite washi papers as the background along with some matte gold cardstock. The "love" sentiment is a laser cut from Island Scrapbooking. 

The new stamps are available tomorrow, April 15 so check out the official Sister Stamps blog to find out where you can purchase them.

Sister Stamps Release #22 - Graduate

It's that time of the month again and Sister Stamps has some special images just for you! Graduation is just around the corner so today, I'm featuring the graduate! I love this little one who represents our culture and tradition of lei giving here in Hawaii. I remember my high school graduation and the mountain of leis I received just like this image. They were piled so high, you could barely see my face among all the beautiful flowers!

I created a modified lei to give kids for preschool or elementary school graduations. (My son was sleeping when I took this photo so my husband was my model).  I took a plastic luggage tag holder and made a tag using this image. I slipped the colored image into the plastic sleeve and got a lanyard with both a clip and cording.  I attached the lanyard to the tag with the snap closure and attached a  snack to the lei using the clip. I used taro chips here but you could use any snack size packaged goodie. The cording makes this gift into a lei and this project can be done pretty quickly and inexpensively!

Here's a close-up of the adorable graduate!

Be sure to check out the others and their great projects and I'll be back tomorrow with more!

Sister Stamps Release #21 - Kimie

It's day 3 of Sister Stamps release #21 and here's my shaker card featuring Kimie! How sweet is she with the three bunnies? Although this stamp is great for Easter, I think it can work for other occasions as well.  I need a card for an upcoming birthday so this is what I came up with.  I used PTI's "fabulous frames" stamps and dies and the new Stampin' Up "arrows" embossing folder (love it!).

Thanks for stopping by and the stamps for this release will be available tomorrow! Be sure to check out the other designers below:

Sister Stamps Release #21 - Jade

Its'a day 2 of Sister Stamps release and I'm featuring another cute bunny today called Jade! I decided to embellish some chevron packaging and use new watercolor designer paper from Stampin' Up.  I layered banners, punched out chevrons and used a rub-on for the sentiment.  Really doesn't get much easier than this!

Sister Stamps Release #21 - Moon

Helllooooo! Boy this year is flying by and I can't believe we're almost into March! It's time for another Sister Stamps release which will be available on March 1. I'm excited about the sweet new bunnies and today I'm featuring Moon! This cutie patootie can obviously be used for Easter themed projects but can easily be used for a variety of other occasions as well.

I used the PTI "In the Meadow" die for the hills and PTI "Polka Dot Parade #1" stamp set for the sentiment.

Sister Stamps Release #20 - Minako

It's day 3 of Sister Stamps release and today I'm featuring Minako. Although I've never been a huge fan of Valentine's Day, I do love all the cute red and pink things that come out around this holiday. I decided to use this sweet color combination and create a birthday card instead.

I hope you've enjoyed the introduction of new images. They're all so cute it's hard to choose a favorite.  The stamps will be available for purchase tomorrow and you can find a list of retailers on the official Sister Stamps blog.

Sister Stamps Release #20 - Misaki

Thanks for stopping by for day 2 of Sister Stamps Release #20. Today, I'm featuring Misaki and the idea for this card was influenced by my 5-year-old son. He's totally into the colors of the rainbow so I thought it would be fun to make a birthday card by cutting the word "happy" out of the colors of the rainbow. And to make it even more cheery, I added Bakers Twine in red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple!

On the inside, I stamped "birthday" using PTI's Wonderful Birthday Words and added a smaller Hero Arts sentiment. The birds are part of the Misaki image but I decided to separate them and use them on the inside. This card makes me happy!

Be sure to pay a visit to the other girls below and I'll be back again tomorrow with one more post.
