Looking for summer theme stamps for your summer gatherings or just something new? Chi Chi Memories NEW July release is just the stamps you need.
I just adore this set and it was very easy to color for any newbie coloring card maker. The simple look and cuteness of this set will sure charm the pants of anyone you make it for. Join the DT girls on Chi Chi Memories Blog to see all the creations using this set for inspiration.
Fathers come in all different ways. It doesn’t have to be the man who gave you life, but the person you call Dad. Here’s to all you Dads, Brothers, Uncles and Friends who have the role of being a Father.
I was part of a team-up with Petaloo and Authentique this month and we got to play with Authentique’s Strong collection which is an all Father’s Day paper collection. The colors were perfect and matched Petaloo’s Darjeeling collection. This mini collection from Petaloo is perfect for cards and I love the color combos, don’t you?
It’s just a quick card today, but I’ll be back. Have a great day!
I’ve been playing with these adorable digi stamps from Chi Chi Memories for the last month and I can’t wait till the NEW stamps are available. If you have a spare minute come over to the store and see all stamps before the NEW sets arrive.
Our design team is hard at work so come see their inspirations and maybe you’ll be inspired to create something yourself. You can view their projects on the blog.
Thanks for visiting and I’ll be back.
What’s everyone doing today to celebrate National Scrapbook Day? I’m at a crop today with some friends that I haven’t seen in awhile because we all live far apart form each other. Days like this give us an opportunity to meet and have fun creating with our much loved hobby of crafting. To kick start the day here’s a few cards I made to help me get in the spirit.
I figured I take advantage of the day to start on my Mother’s Day cards so I don’t have to scramble at the last minute to get something made.
I used Vintage Bliss from Simple Stories and Petaloo’s NEW Penny Lane collection. They go so well together, don’t you agree?
I have two Mother’s to make cards for. One for my Mother In Law and the other for My Mom. I used the Vintage Bliss collection as well and the Penny Lane flowers from Petaloo.
I hope you enjoyed the cards and have fun whatever you are doing to celebrate today. Wishing you much happiness and lots of super duper fun whether you are home or out crafting some where.
I’ve been having fun using this stamp I found in the clearance bin at Michaels (craft store in America). It’s a Hampton Art stamp called, Posy Collage. I stamped it a few time on to different matching papers and fussy cut them out onto black card-stock to make it pop. I didn’t add any sentiments because it was so busy to begin with so I left it plain.
I also used these NEW Accessories line from Petaloo. These brads are uber cool! I love the mix up of brads and colors. They match so well with a lot of the leading paper manufactures which is always a plus when creating.
You’ll find that Petaloo has a lot to offer with their huge line of gorgeous flowers.
Here’s a sample of the Penny Lane flower I used from Petaloo. Click here to see all the colors these beauties come in.
Thanks again for visiting and I’ll be back with more from Cards by Alice. Have a wonderful day!
I think this is my favorite card. Is that okay to say that out loud? I don’t mean to sound vein, but it makes me happy when I look at it. Maybe it’s the hippos holding up the flowers? I don’t know, but I giggle when I look at it.
I used Petaloo’s Mulberry paper flowers and set the centers with Petaloo’s NEW Brads from their accessories line.
Aren’t these cute??? I love that there’s a mix of different brads…adorable!
I stamped these a few times and cut out the gift box image. Then I covered it with the flowers.
These are the flowers I used to on top of the hippos on my card. I popped them up using foam adhesive.
Well that’s it for now, but I’ll be back and I’ll see you soon!
Lately I’ve been stamping and coloring a lot and I can’t believe I didn’t do this earlier. As design team member for paper manufactures, it’s a little harder to use stamps if they don’t carry stamps in their collections. It’s mostly paper and embellishments that they want us to use in our designs so I don’t get to play with stamps too often.
I know I used this flower stamp from Hero Arts in my last Scrap-Mart.com post, but I can’t help myself…LOL
Hero Arts Classic Bloom
Hero Arts Graph Background
I used the graph stamp for my background then I stamped the flowers separately. After I stamped the flowers I colored them with Copics and cut them out and adhered them to my card. I like doing that because it makes the flowers pop.

I used my favorite stamp set from Taylored Expressions, Fa-BOO-lous!
I wasn’t sure where to put the sentiment so I created a pop up window.

I really enjoyed making this card! This collection has beautiful neutral colors with a nature theme. The die cuts are so life-like and the color is perfect if you need a rustic nature touch.
