Sunny Days -- High Hopes Stamps

 Happy Friday to you!

I'm back with a little bit of sunshine using Bella Bear from High Hopes  Stamps found here!
I'm thinking we could all use a little extra sunshine this February!! :)

Lots of warm yummy yellow, hearts background papers  and Bella Bear enjoying a beautiful day! Added sewing stitches and a texture white doily!

I decided to create some background clouds and grassy details using Copic Markers.

The inside of the card has been all dolled up with some gingham paper,touch of yellow card stock with added zigzag stitching. The sentiment is also a High Hopes from Sentiment Set#1

(I tried to stitch up the heart die cut but it was a little more difficult than I thought, the results are not perfect). A handmade look, I guess!

Make a wish -- High Hopes Stamps

 Gosh this is such a fun image to colour. I love all the details and there are tons of ideas floating around in my head! I will be using this gang on a New Year's Card next year for sure!

 I created a shaker card by die cutting multiple frames and gluing them together almost creating a thick chipboard. Added a piece of clear acetate and one last die cut on top of the stack and the window was created. Confetti and the image was inserted on the back of the window and pop doted to the card.  

I also decorated the inside of the card with this super cool sentiment  "Happy Birthday to the Party Animals" Added Copic airbrushing and gum drop gems for added fun!

Thanks for peeking, wishing you an awesome crafty day!

Made with High Hopes "Party Animals sentiment found here

and 

Wild Party Birthday Stamps found here!

Welcome New Baby -- High Hopes Stamps

 Hi there, just making some sweets to help celebrate the arrival of a little one!

These cupcakes were made for a co-workers baby shower. 

I used High Hopes Rainy Day Ducky found here for the Cup Cake Topper.

Sequences, Toothpicks, Nestibilities scalloped circles and Rainy Day ducky were used to create the toppers.  Basically I used 2 scallop circles per a topper and sandwiched the toothpick between them (with hot glue). Added a bow, some Betty Crocker cupcakes & Icing too!

 It took awhile to make the toppers and they were made the same night as the cupcakes.  Next time I will make the toppers ahead of time instead of staying up til midnight to get everything made. 

Regardless it was worth the effort and I think my co-workers enjoyed them too :) 

On a side note... The icing is a Betty Crocker. I usually use the Cream Cheese Icing or Vanilla Icing and use food colouring. The confetti candy is from our local Bulk Barn and they always look so pretty on top of the cupcakes :)

Thanks for peeking!

Of Frap! -- One Crazy Stamper!

 I love my coffee and hate the thought of wasting a single drop. Sadly , there's been way too many times where I have made a trail of spilt coffee from the cafeteria to my desk at work :)   (don't tell my boss!!) 

So... I thought that it would  be fun to create a sad/spilt coffee cup.

  YNS Java Geek, YNS Coffee Rings, YNSJava Geek Die Set, are all available at One Crazy Stamper!

I used a newspaper style card stock which I think is perfect for the coffee rings background stamps. Some heart gems for total coffee love, fine twine, sewing stitches and a glossy accents coffee puddle too! 

Thanks for peeking and happy Friday!

Oh Frap -- One Crazy Stamper

 Oh Frap! Yep these two Java lovers are having fun again!

Honestly I adore this sweet stamp  set and have many fun scenes to create.

You can grab these stamp sets here at One Crazy Stamper.

 YNS Java Geek, YNS Coffee Rings, YNSJava Geek Die Set,

For this card I pulled out my sewing machine and used some super thick button thread for added details.  The banner flags are simply hand cut triangles with tied bows at each end. The sentiment was one piece so I cut it up to create a different look to the "Oh Frap!" which also worked better on my design.

 These cuties were coloured up with Copics. Only a few used here being E50,E33,E37,R20,R11,0

The love embellishment was a heart safety pin which I cut and hot glued in the middle of my bow. The froth on my Frap was created using Liquid Pearl Paint.

Thanks so much for looking. Hope you take time to have a Java with a friend!

On the road again! - High Hopes Stamps

 I'm back!! It's Nat here again with Maurice. Yep that's this cool Moose' name :)

Maurice is back on the road or should I say this Moose is on the loose!

Grab the High Hopes stamp here!

The image is coloured with Copics.  Layers of orange card stock and Harley Davidson  pattern paper. The metal embellishment is from an old  leather belt  :)

I used the stitched ribbon as it reminds me of leather stitching and also added brads and window screen for an industrial look.

I made this card for a good friend to give to her one of her friends that loves motorcycles. So, I glammed it up a bit with floral details.

Thanks for peeking! Have a great day!

Java great day! One crazy stamper

Hi there, happy Friday, the best day of the week is here :) Yahoo!!

I'm excited to share my card today made with ..

 YNS Java Geek, YNS Coffee Rings, YNSJava Geek Die Set,

Have I mentioned that I'm a total coffee lover!! 

 The background paper reminds me of a  retro kitchen's wallpaper and I thought it would be fun for a coffee card. The stamped coffee rings is also from Your Next Stamp and its such a great companion stamp set to go with Java Geek. Little bits of Swiss dots paper for some added touches on the coffee cups and real coffee beans hot glued and  used as

embellishments. 

The sentiment and "coffe" Periodic Table elements are awesome. I actually work for a Scientific company  so cards made with this set for my coworkers would be total fun!!

 Thanks for peeking! Wishing you a great weekend!

Dress up -- High Hopes Stamps

Hi there, just peeking in with a quick card created with High Hopes Danni Dress up found here.

Total sweetness with this dress up stamp and my heart melted when I first saw it!

I tried to add elements that you would find in Grandma's closet, 

pearls, sequences, gems and a little heart hat pin. All the things I love!

The Kraft paper is splattered with pink acrylic paint and tiny gems added to the background too.  I kinda wanted a dreamy effect!

The sentiment is typed on my old typewriter which gives an  worn effect. 

The sentiment reads, "Love, Laugh and never stop dreaming"

The image is coloured with Copics and a white sharpie marker for added details.

Thanks for looking, have a great week!

Dance in my Garden -- High Hopes Stamps

 Hi there, I've been playing with this sweet gal from High Hopes called Little Miss Springtime found here.

The background garden was created with acrylic paint and the sentiment is also from High Hopes called sentiment set 2 found here

Stencils were used to create texture and the nice thing about acrylic paint is that you can just keep layering it if  you don't like  the look. Copic airbrushing was also added to the background. :)

Thanks for checking out my creation! 

Have a great week!
