Repeat Impressions - What if Wednesday

Hello and happy Wednesday to you all!  Today at The House That Stamps Built we are celebrating Wednesday by hosting our bi-weekly What If Wednesday sketch challenge!

The sketch this time around is as follows:

Have a great time with this one!  For my card I have used Repeat Impressions stamp 8402-M My Sunshine.  I loved coloring this stamp with my copics, and thought that the face on this sunflower would be perfect to put a little bit of crystal effects to "pop" it up!

I hope you enjoy the rest of the design team samples when you stop by The House That Stamps Built!  Have a great rest of the week!

Repeat Impressions SOTW - Cats Will Be Cats

There's another stamp of the week over at Repeat Impressions today!  This week we are showcasing the stamp 1017-H Cats Will Be Cats.  You can find it here at the Repeat Impressions store.  Details on this promotion are available at the blog, The House That Stamps Built.

Here's my card:

I have used a rub-on set I found at a local craft store to pair with this image.  The words and the tree are part of the rub-on set.  I really saw this cat in my mind as having to have a Christmas tree to play under!  Paper is from Stampin' Up and the ribbon is from my stash.  After I put this card together I sprayed it with a pearl coat spray.

Please come over to The House That Stamps Built to check out the rest of the design team samples!

It's 3-D at Totally Stampalicious!

Hello and happy Monday to you all! Today at Totally Stampalicious we are looking to see what kind of handmade gifts you are all giving away for the holidays. So don't make a card, let's make a 3-D item!

For my project I have made a mug filled with peppermint cocoa mix and a long handled mixing spoon! For the tag I have used Poppi Cocoa that you can find here at the Totally Stampalicious store. I have colored this cute penguin with my copics and adhered her to a red backing.
