Hi Everyone;

I can’t wait for Fall to come.  It is one of my favourite seasons, and it is colourful with the leaves changing colours, the abundance of pumpkins, Thanksgiving and Halloween.

For today’s card, I have used the Wagon Full of Blessings from High Hopes Stamps.  This is a CAS card.  A small piece of Design Paper was used, so that there would be room to add some stenciling on the Kraft cardstock.  I used Nuvo Embellishment Mousse in Orange Blush and Inka Gold in Jade to add colour to The Autumn Delight Stickable Stencil from BoBunny.  When I opened the Inka Gold, it had harden over time, so I spritz some water on it which made it usable again. The same can be done with the Nuvo Embellishment Mousse.

The image was coloured with Copic Markers, and some ribbon and enamel dots were added to finish it off.

Supplies used:

  • Stamps:  Wagon Full of Blessings, Welcome Fall (High Hopes Stamps)
  • Ink:  Tsukineko Memento Tuxedo Black
  • Paper:  XPress It Blending Cardstock, DP – Fall Blessings (Carta Bella)

Magic of Christmas

Christmas in July, Daily Inspiration, High Hopes Stamps, One Crazy Stamper, , ,

Welcome OCS and High Hopes Stamps fans;

From Santa and Rudolph, to Jack Frost and Frosty the Snowman, I have always found Christmas to have a magical air about it.  It also seems that it is the time that families and friends gather for some Christmas Cheer.

For today’s Christmas Inspiration here at One Crazy Stamper, I have used Santa & Rudy.  After stamping the image, I coloured it with Copic Markers.  Nuvo Fresh Snowfall Glitter Accents was added to the trim on Santa’s hat

‘Twas the Night Before Christmas!

Christmas, Daily Inspiration, High Hopes Stamps, Sue, ,

Welcome OCS and HH Fans;

As we are halfway through the year, now is the time to get a start on Christmas cards.  The Design Teams Divas on the High Hopes and One Crazy Stamper Blogs will be sharing “Christmas in July” inspiration to you all month!

For my first Christmas card, I used this cute stamp called Here Comes Santa from High Hopes Stamps.  It is a CAS card as the design paper was a perfect match for it.  The paper is from  Echo Park’s ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas which was released last year, which I thought matched perfectly.  It is also my favourite Christmas poem.

I coloured the image with  copic markers and used some Prismacolor pencils to add some shading.

The image was fuzzy cut and three light bulbs were added as embellishments.  Nuvo’s Snow Glow Sparkle Dust was used to add some glitter to Santa.  The Sparkle & Cheer sentiment was added to the inside of the card.

Hoping Your Day is as Special as you are!

Daily Inspiration, High Hopes Stamps, One Crazy Stamper, Sue, ,

Welcome OCS Fans;

Well it seems that we have had a very short Spring and now are into the first hot weekend, even though it isn’t officially summer yet.

Seeing mother nature at its’ best is one of my favourite things during the spring and summer; especially the colourful hummingbirds. Today’s card can be used as a birthday card or one of those you want to send as “Just Because”.

After colouring the Hummingbird (High Hopes Stamps) using copic markers, I added some Silver Moonlight Nuvo Glitter Drops to the edge of the wing and tail.  I just added it as a thin layer to add a bit of glitter.  On the leaves I added some Morning Dew Nuvo Crystal Drops.  Yes, I am addicted to the Nuvo products — they are so versatile.  I wet the outside edge of the Mulberry Paper with water and did a gentle tear all around to give a bit of a ragged look.

Magical Moments…

High Hopes Stamps, One Crazy Stamper, Sue, ,

Welcome OCS Fans;

For today’s post, I have used the “Wizard in Training” from the High Hopes Stamps latest release called “A Magical Day“.   It would be nice if she could do some magic that would bring us some spring.

Today’s card is on the clean and simple side.  The two side panels were created by using the Vintage Border Hot Foil Stamp and the GoPress and Foil machine to foil them.  This machine can foil embossing folders as well as wafer thin dies.
