And now for my project! 
**sorry for the blurry photo, it was rainy all day, I had to run when there was a small sun break, and well - it was the best I could do under the pressure before it started a downpour again!**

I made this 12 X 12 layout of my youngest son Colin when he was younger.  He used to just light up when he was swimming in the pool. Just look at him beaming!
I used the new Smile Like You Mean It page layout and various papers from my stash.
I used different sentiments from Picture This on little flags to add some words.



Did you lose your way?

Here's what I created for April:


I really pushed myself in masking this card.. I am not the best with masking and this took some time.. but I absolutely LOVE the final result!
First I created my digital background of mini poloraid looking photos as the frames.  I even added caption words once I decided which stamps I wanted to use.
Go team, My Love, Happy times and Favorite things.
That just about covered it all!
Then I CAREFULLY masked each section and stamped my little chibi stamps to each photo frame.!
It was DAUNTING to say the least!!

I used Trudy for Go Team
Chloe & Sam for MY LOVE
Megan for Happy Times
and Melanie for Favorite things!

Coloring this was tons of fun too !  having different hair colors and clothing just makes it fun to use many colors!


Again, here is a close up for the taking selfies!! and all the stamps I used Trudy, Megan, Melanie and Chloe & Sam stamps!



Hope you will play along with us for the monthly theme week!

Jaded Blossoms April Release Day! For Teacher!

Hi Everyone, It's Release Day over at Jaded Blossom!  We hope you all enjoyed our projects this week.  But we still have one more set and our April Freebie to share with you today.


For our Freebie of the Month !
Free Stamp for customers that spend $40 or more before Taxes and Shipping! 

Here is what I made for today

A simple 3d Apple for teacher!



I started this project with a simple apple silhouette shape. You must make sure your shape is 100% symmetrical for this to work!
I cut 12 of these apple shapes, folded them in half and applied adhesive to one side of the outter folded part. Then I stacked them all together to put together.Simply fan out your shape and glue/tape your first apple side to your last apple side to make the 3d shape.I then took mustache dies and made the stem. I stamped the For Teacher from the new Freebie to a mini tag die 2.

Jaded Blossom April Release Day #4 - Cherry Blossoms Card

Good morning everyone and welcome to Day 4 of the Jaded Blossom April Release. Today we are sharing projects made with a new stamp set!


Here is the card I made with this new stamp set

 I started this card with a standard A2 card base and added the inside mat cut with the Card Mat Dies.
I cut the window using the Stitched Square Dies.

I stamped all the blossoms from the NEW Cherry Blossom stamp set randomly around the sides and then lined this up to another card mat die, and stamps my sentiment from Seasonal Tree in the center window.  I colored them all in with copic markers
I cut a paper cherry blossom in 2 layers and then took some golden twine and tied in the center and then frayed a little to make the center stem of the flower.

April Release, Megan - Hey Cupcake!



Hi and welcome to Day #3 of Stamp Anniething's April release!  
This month is all about being in the kitchen... who doesn't like fresh baked goods, right?


Meet our newest stamp,

Megan is available in the store NOW along with the other 2 stamps we showed  you  this week!!
`~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Here is the Project I made :


Let me first say that this card has sooooooo many blunders and errors on it!  My red markers bled out and my cover up didnt initially work!  So when you watch the video below you will see all that bad goodness and see how a little creative thinking can save the day!

In the end, this turned out to be one of my fave cards from release week that I did.. the one that was a HOT mess to boot!


This stamp is available in the STORE NOW!

Thanks for joining us for our April Release
