Any Direction You Choose!

Children, High Hopes Stamps, Uncategorized, , ,

Hi Everyone;

It is hard to believe that six weeks have gone by with working at home, children doing their schooling in an online environment.  This is becoming such a new normal.  Kudos to all our wonderful frontline workers.

Today’s card is featuring Little Reader paired with Any Direction You Choose, both from High Hopes Stamps and is for all the children finding themselves in a strange new world of schooling at home.  There is such a wonderful world of adventures waiting for them between the covers of all sorts of books.

After colouring the image, I used a Spellbinders Square Die to cut it out.  A Peel Off border sticker was added to the outside edge.  A Peel Off border was added to the border of the sentiment also.

Supplies used:

  • Stamps:  Little Reader (K119) and Any Direction You Choose (L044) — High Hopes Stamps
  • Ink:  Tsukineko Memento Tuxedo Black
  • Paper:  XPress It Blending Cardstock; DP – Perfectly Plaid – Spring (Lawn Fawn)

Challenge - Anything Goes, High Hopes Stamps, One Crazy Stamper, , , ,

Hi OCS fans;

Welcome to another crazy Tuesday as well as a crazy week.  This is the last week of school for the children and their summer adventures await them.  For today’s card, I tried to achieve a bit of free spirit with children going in any direction they choose.


I used the High Hopes Stamps called Biking Buddies and Patty’s Posies and used the Dr. Suess quote “Any Direction You Choose“.  The main images were cut out and mounted with Action Wobbles.  The Sparkly Teal YNS Gumdrops down the middle of the design paper is meant to be a sort of path that they can follow.
