Sprinkling You With Joy...

Hello! Today I have a card using The Stamps Of Life stamp set and dies, donuts2stamp. I used the dies to make the donut and then sponged Antique Linen distress ink for the bottom, and Picked Raspberry distress ink for my icing. Stamped my chocolate sprinkles and sentiment in Walnut Stain distress ink.
This is a quick and simple birthday card to make. I plan on making them in every color! So fun!

TSOL: Birdcage2stamp

Hello! Sharing some cards made with The Stamps Of Life newest release-birdcage2stamp. The dies for this set are incredible. The birdcage wires are so intricate and detailed, and add the perfect touch, once layered over the sweet little birdies.

That little wing can be cut out in the die process, too! You can use the wings as hearts, as seen in the card below.

Check out the many different "club" options here. So very reasonably priced, and you get amazing discounts when you are a club member. :)

The Stamps Of Life: Bicycle2stamp

Hello! Today I am sharing a card using the bicycle2stamp set from The Stamps Of Life. I have been seeing a lot of bikes out and about in my neighborhood, now that warmer weather has arrived and the snow has melted away!
I colored my bike with copic markers, and used the coordinating die set to cut the finished bike, the hello sentiment and the tiny flower.
Make sure you check out The Stamps Of Life gallery for TONS of ideas using this set. :)

The Stamps Of Life: Cats2stamp!

Hello! Today I am sharing some cards using the cats2stamp set from The Stamps Of Life. I am not a lover of cats...not at all.  I am highly allergic, and they just don't do it for me. But....I really loved playing with this set! I think this cat is super adorable. It looks friendly, it doesn't make me itch or make my eyes swell shut, and it doesn't hiss at me and give me attitude. MY KIND OF CAT!

I do have several friends who LOVE cats, so I know just who to send these cards to! There is a matching die that you can purchase with the set, too!

:If you are a lover of cats, or know people who are...this is a great set to add to your collection!

Thank you for stopping by,

TSOL and Sizzix: Feel Better Soon!

Hello. I am so in love with the Step-up cards from Stephanie Barnard for Sizzix. Super love! I love to prop them up on a shelf.  They are also so much fun to send to friends and family. They just love getting any type of pop up card.
I used The Stamps Of Life morechalksayings2stamp set for this card (the banner). The designer paper is from Webster's pages. all of the dies are included in with the step-up die, and it comes and a fabulous pouch for storage.

You can find both the stamp set and the die at The Stamps of Life!

Sizzix new Step-up die!

Hello! I am sharing a couple of cards today, using the new Sizzix Step-up die by Stephanie Barnard. I never have the patience for cutting and scoring these cards myself, so this die makes it quick and easy to create a fun, dimensional card. I love that the recipient can keep it on their desk or table to display!
The first card uses the kites2fly set from The Stamps of Life.

The second card uses flower dies and flourishes that actually come with this die set! I just sponged them with distress inks and added some copper Gala Glitz beads to the centers.

You can purchase this die from Sizzix or from The Stamps Of Life site!

Thanks for stopping by!

TSOL: I have faith in you!

Hello! Today I want to share a card using The Stamps Of Life set, scribbles2stamp. I used the scribble circles to create roses! I stamped them on patterned paper and then cut them out. The leaves are stamped and die cut using Sizzix Words & Tags Framelit and Stamp set by Stephanie Barnard.
I love finding different ways to use a stamp. Make it feel like new again!

TSOL: Berry lucky...

Hello! I have a card to share today using stamps and dies from The Stamps Of Life. I think these strawberry stamps and dies are my favorite of the entire summer! I used the dies to cut the strawberries and leaves from patterned paper. I added some vintage buttons and burlap twine bows to the centers of the stems. I inked the edges of my card in Old Paper distress ink, and then used some of the reinker mixed with water to create the splatter by flicking it with a paint brush.
The patterned paper is from My Mind's Eye but is several years old. I have no clue what collection.

Thanks for stopping by!

TSOL: So Berry Sorry!

Hi, there! I am sharing a card using the strawberries2stamp and morestrawberries2stamp sets from The Stamps Of Life. I stamped a sad face on the strawberry to go along with the "sorry" sentiment. I also used the coordinating strawberry dies to cut out the strawberry and stem after they were stamped onto white cardstock.
The blue and white panel is actually a 3x4 Project Life card by Heidi Swapp. I love incorporating those onto my cards.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

The Stamps Of Life: We Are Quite A Pair!!!!

Hello! Anyone who knows me well, knows that I LOVE my flip flops! I just love the flip flop dies and stamps from The Stamps Of Life. :)  I just used the dies to create my flip flops on this card and used a sentiment from the set. I added some rhinestones and some die cut hearts.  The paper is echo park's Little Girl collection. 

Thanks for stopping by and hope you have a great weekend!

The Stamps Of Life: Strawberries2stamp!

Hi there! Just wanted to share some cards using the new strawberries2stamp set from The Stamps Of Life.  Perfect summertime creations using these stamps and matching dies. I didn't even use the strawberry image stamps on these cards. I just used the dies and some patterned paper along with a stamped sentiment from this set. Easy peasy!

I used Sweet Girl patterned paper from Echo Park for both of these cards. 

Thanks so much for stopping by!

I am loving the new flip flop sets from The Stamps Of Life! The matching dies make it so easy to build fun, little flip flops for your summer cards. The clever sentiments are sure to put a smile on anyone's face. :)

I pretty much live in my flip flops as soon as it gets warm out so this set is near and dear to my heart. LOL!

TSOL: What A Mess!!!!

 

Hello! Today I am sharing another card using The Stamps Of Life set, scribbles2stamp. I just love this set! I just stamped a few of the circles in Stephanie's inks-Strawberry, Blueberry and Banana. I added the sentiment in in Licorice ink and matted the image panel in black. It reminds me of a child's fingerpainting. LOL! It would be cute to send to a teacher with a different sentiment.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

TSOL: Crazy4daisies and making your own enamel dots!

Hi, there! Today I have a card to share using The Stamps Of Life set, crazy4daisies.  I used Stephanie's inks in Guava, Licorice, Tangerine and Artichoke.
 I also melted some yellow pony beads in the oven to create my own enamel dots for the flower centers! It is a bit stinky, so make sure you open some windows. I put the beads on a piece of parchment paper on a cookie tray. I stuck them in the oven for about 5 minutes at 300 degrees. I would watch them closely, as everyone's ovens are different. The first batch I burned a bit! LOL!

Have a great weekend!

TSOL: Get Creative!

Hello! Today I am sharing a card using the new scribbles2stamp set from The Stamps Of Life.  I heat embossed my black scribble circles with black embossing powder along with my sentiment. I then used my Gelatos to create the background by simply coloring and then blending with a baby wipe.  I created the dotted background on my card base by flicking Licorice, Tangerine, and Guava spray inks by Stephanie Barnard. Easy, artsy card to put together for your favorite crafty friend!

The Stamps Of Life :morepb&j2stamp!

I made this card with two sets from The Stamps Of Life- pb&j2enjoy and morepb&j2stamp.  I LOVE peanut butter, so these sets were great to add to my collection. I drew the little sad face on the peanut since he is missing his jelly. :)
I also used the matching dies for the jar, wrapper, lid and peanut images.
The card below features the grapes and sentiment from these sets. I used the leaves from Stephanie's Sizzix set titled Leaves for the grape vine.

Check out The Stamps Of Life gallery for more ideas on how to use these fabulous sets!
