Starving Artistamps

I just love this big flower from Starving Artistamps. I colored it with Copic markers then die cut with Spellbinders dies. I’ll use this for a swap this month on FL Stampers Yahoo group.

If you like it enough to buy it, use my discount code savetenAC! Thanks for looking!

Starving Artistamps

Supplies:
Starving Artistamps stamps
Tsukineko ink
Prism cardstock
Copic markers
Spellbinders dies
ribbon and brads

It’s that time of year again! Yes, candy corn (LOVE it), orange & green and spooky stuff. :)

Hence comes the card pictured below. Using stamps from Starving Artistamps, PKGlitz embossing powder and awesome Core’dinations cardstock, this spooky card was born! I love the cardstock from Core’dinations because of the contrasting core color, not white, not colored like the base cardstock color, but contrasting! Neat stuff and oh so fun to work with on any project.

We are going to give away not one, not two, not three, but FOUR. Yes, FOUR!!! BRAND NEW SETS of stamps to one lucky randomly drawn winner for helping get the word out about our new stamps. And since we are leaving for a big road trip on Wednesday for stamp shows (Novi, MI and Cincinnati, OH.. see the website for details). We are drawing the winner this TUESDAY night so you only have today and tomorrow to enter! So this is what you need to do in order to win FOUR brand new hot off the presses stamp sets (with a street value of about $65 big ones…)

Well, from the Starving Artistamps Bees Sheet! Rubber stamps are just so versatile and fun to use. I’ve mostly been making cards recently which does have side benefits like using scraps! Each of the cards shown here have scraps from either patterned paper or cardstock cut from layouts. It’s such a great feeling to use scraps!

All stamps are from Starving Artistamps. Patterned paper is from Tinkering Ink, SEI and Reminisce.

I’ve had a little time to play around with some new BasicGrey Lime Rickey and stamps from Starving Artistamps. The stamps come from the “Bees” sheet which contains cool bees flying around, the beautiful flower I used in one of my last posts, grasshoppers, leaves and reeds. I love the natural feel of the images!

This first card was for a sketch challenge at Rubber Stamp Chat - fun place to hang out!

Bees Sheet

Paper: BasicGrey
Stamps: Starving Artistamps
EP: PK Glitz
Ribbon: Target

This next card is using pretty much the same ingredients as above except that I added some Prima flowers, Dew drops and googley-eyes on the bee. The slot was cut with a Stampin’ Up! punch.

Bees Sheet

This last one is my try using inks and a brayer. I’ve been visiting Michelle Zindorf’s blog recently and she’s really inspiring when it comes to using those items so nicely together!

Bees Sheet

Inks: Memento
Stamps: Starving Artistamps
White Pen: Ranger
Hemp & Eyelets: Stampin’ Up!
