For my first sample, I use the adorable new stamp set, Over the Moon, designed by Jennifer Nilsson.

Creative Nugget:  A galaxy background was created with Oxide Inks on mixed media paper.  The star was cut from a white panel with my Scan 'N Cut and a Stitched Rectangle frame was then embossed on the panel.  A few stars and a sentiment from the Over the Moon stamp set were silver embossed.  A pair of astronauts were colored with Copic Markers, joined together with silver metallic thread and popped onto the card.  A few gemstones were added to finish the card.

The newly designed By the Sea stamp set was used to create my second sample.

Creative Nugget:  The Adirondack chair image from the By the Sea was white embossed on a Kraft panel and the umbrella paper pieced with paper from my stash.  A frame was cut from white card stock and the sentiment embossed.  The shells were colored with Copic markers and added to finish the card.

Ceal is next on the blog list so hop on over to her blog for more fabulous inspiration!

Thank so much for stopping by...enjoy the rest of the hop!

A Good Day to Have a Good Day

Hello, friends!  Hope all of you in the USA had a blast on the 4th of July yesterday!  Today is Friday and it's a good day to have a good day!

Today I'm sharing a couple of cards over on the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Blog using some of the new products released this month by Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps.

My first card features the Over the Moon stamp set designed Jennifer Nilsson and you will be Over the Moon with all of the fabulous images and sentiments in this adorable set.

Creative Nugget:  Oxide Inks were applied to an acrylic block, spritzed with water and applied to a piece of mixed media paper. A little more sponging, some white paint splatters and stamped stars complete the galaxy sky.  The rocket and moon were colored with Copic Markers and a little Glossy Accents applied to the window.  The sentiment panel and some gems were added to finish the card.

Next up is a card made with the beautiful Happy Irises stamp set.  This set was the Stamp of the Month last month, but is now available for purchase.

Creative Nugget:  Oxide Inks were sponged onto a piece of mixed media paper, spritzed with water splatters and stamped with the grid texture from Texture Tiles 1.  Another piece of white card stock was impressed with a canvas pattern and stitched to the sponged panel.  The irises were colored with Copic Markers, cut with the Scan 'N Cut and popped onto the card.  The sentiment is from the new Stamp of the Month, Sentimental Wordfetti, and is available free with a $60 purchase.

The stamp sets used on my two cards are available from the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Store.
