Be Happy!!! Stampotique Originals Blog hop!

You should have arrived from Claudine Criner's blog and if you didn't, you may want to start the blog hop from the beginning (SDC blog).  

   Happy Monday and Happy Leap Day.  I am super excited to be able to show you a couple of newly released stamps from Stampotoque Originals.  For the blog hop, I have created a journal page using the following new stamps:       

                                                          - Agatha Text #1 (used on clouds)

                                                          - Unicorn

                                                          - Corner Sun 

            

                                      Next on the hop is Coby vanWilligenburg

There are tons of new images from our favorite stamp designers and we are proud to welcome TWO (yes TWO) new stamp designers, Terri Richardson and also Karen Hayselden  

Both of these ladies are wonderful artists and we think you will really enjoy the new spin they both give to the Stampotique line.  Hopefully you will find some new stamps that you can't live without.

Join us on the blog hop for a first look at the new stamps and for some wonderful inspiration from our design team. 

This is also your chance to win some random goodies-we will be drawing TWO winners from TWO of the designer's blogs for a $30 gift certificate for the Stampotique online store. 

 You will need to hop all the way through and visit and leave comments on each designer's blog in order to win. 

Have fun hopping, we will be pulling the random winners of the Leap Day Blog Hop at the beginning of our next challenge on April 6th, 2016

It's Hip to Be Square!

   Happy Wednesday!  It has been some time since I have posted last.  Life has been beyond crazy, but I am back and that is all that matters.
   At Scrap-Creations, Wednesdays = Stampotique Originals Designers Challenge.  This weeks hostess is Corrie and here is what Corrie says about this challenge:
 
"I am very fond of circles in my work, so I want to get outside my comfort zone and use squares for a change and I would like you to join me. Have Fun!!"

   For this challenge, I used my squares as a sitting post for skunk w/ word on side.  This is a super fun challenge and I hope you will join us for a chance to win $30.00 worth of free stamps. 

  Also, Stampotique has a new release coming out in March and we are showing sneak peaks on the Stampotique Designers Facebook page.  Hop on over and check them out!

Love is in The Air!

    Happy Wednesday! I hope you having a wonderful week this far. Do you know what Sunday is??? Valentines Day and I am a sucker for the seasonal items.  I love to walk in Target (my fav) and check out the season section.  I can't help but love all the red and pink right now! 
   This weeks Stampotique Originals Designer Challenge hostess is  Coby vanWilligenburg and her challenge is: "Love Is In The Air" here is what Coby says about this challenge:

"Love is so sweet and so tender...love is more than a boy than a boy and a girl.....love are my children, my grandchildren and animals... show in your creation this week, Love"

There you have it, it's all about Love this week.

 

Of course, I LOVE this challenge.  I made a simple card today, using Waving Spotted Monster by Kira Nichols.  I know you can't really see from the pic, but there is depth between the heart and the base.  This was a super fun challenge and I sure do hope you will join us in this weeks a challenge.  Not only is it fun, but there is also a chance for $30.00 in free product!.  Have a great week....

It Takes Two!

   Happy Wednesday!  Here at Scrap-Creations Wednesdays = Stampotique Designers challenge and this weeks challenge is "double the fun."  This weeks Hostess is Valerie and here is what Valerie has to say about this weeks challenge:
 "Nope, that's not a typo! This week we are celebrating the 2nd anniversary of the Stampotique monthly swap. This week, let's feature two's. You can interpret this any way you want. Duos, mirrors, the number two, duplicates - whatever comes to mind."

   One of my favorite things about joining challenges, is coming up with the creative idea.  When preparing for this weeks challenge, I was sifting through my stamps deciding what I would use, when I spotted the "Skunk with Word on the side" stamp by Kira Nichols.  I knew I wanted to use a play on words for this challenge, note the "too" on my card, and I LOVE the stamp, so i went with it, and this is what I came up with for this weeks challenge.  
    Thank you Valerie for a super fun challenge, and I sure do hope you will join us for this weeks challenge over at Stampotique Originals for some super fun!  Have a great day and thank you for stopping by. 

A Little Wizard of OZ for you!

                    Here is my project for this weeks Stampotique Originals Designers CHallenge. 
This week our hostess is Sue Davies and she is giving us a fun challenge "Use only Hues of Reds and Pinks"

Here is what Sue says about this challenge:"With Valentine's Day around the corner we have all seen hues of reds and pinks, I challenge you to create a Stampotique Valentine's Day creation inspired by reds and pinks"
   I love red and pinks, so this was a super fun challenge for me.   Pink and reds remind me of love, and I just adore this tin man stamp by Janet Klein and thought it would work wonderful in my project this week.   I also used the neverending wall by Arwen McCullen as my yellow brick road. My font was computer generated.  I hope you enjoyed my project and will join us over at the challenge group for a chance to win $30.00 worth of FREE product! Have a wonderful day!
