Hip To Be Square Event with Lost Coast Design

Hello Everyone,
I am back after a summer break.  As you probably know, I had a huge landscaping project to take of.  I also had some family matters and health issues.  I will be sharing pics of the landscaping soon.

But today is my post for the Hip to be Square Event going on now.  The place: Lost Coast's Portal to Creativity blog.  Head over to check out more projects, details, and there is a prize.

For my project, I used one of the "square" stamps from Carmen's Veranda and added some architectural stamps to the background.


Materials:
Stamps: Clock Face Square and Cracked Column from Carmen's Veranda; Misc Word Set from Lost Coast Designs
Ink: Northern Pine Memento, Bundled Sage Distress
CS:white, green
Black narrow ribbon


Make It:

  • Make a card from green CS
  • Decorate white CS using a mono printing plate, paint, and stencils
  • Cut a piece to size and distress with Bundled Sage ink
  • Stamp the columns with Northern Pine ink; add to card


  •  Stamp the Clock Face Square on white card and layer with green CS; add to card
  • Stamp Kindness and add to card
  • Tie ribbon in knot and add to card


Trying to get back in the swing of things.  I haven't made cards all summer.  I do have lots of projects planned for Fall.  And, lots of Halloween events coming up. Hope  your summer went well.  It is good to be back!!

  2. Wonderful card Karen I love the layers of stamping! Sometimes a break from crafting is good too, your mojo comes back refreshed, although I always have to kick mine into action first!
