Stamp a Stack for StampFest!

 StampFest 2013

July 12-13, 2013

The event is $25 per person for the entire weekend or $15.00 for Friday OR Saturday only. Doors open at noon on Friday (July 12th). You may stay as late as you like on Friday or Saturday and come and go as you please.

Your StampFest fee gives you access to the room for either day or the weekend and that includes the use of the following stations….

  • Stamp Station: I will have all of the stamps available for any kits or cards that I am offering plus 20-30 sentiment sets. Each participant can also choose up to 10 additional sets that they would like to have available for the weekend for everyone to use.
  • Color Station: I will have 60 different colors of ink and markers available, as well as specialty pads, chalks, pencils and other items for coloring your stamps and images.
  • Cutting/Tool Station: I will have all of my punches, Big Shot, die and framelit collection available for you to use all weekend. I’ll also have all of my embossing folders and various other cutting, scoring and piercing tools for you to use. I will  have additional tools like heat guns, crimpers, cropadile etc.
  • My Digital Studio Classes: $10.00 for an hour and a half session, no room fee required. Basics or Advanced sessions (call or email me for times and details 918-827-6148) You do not have to pay the room rate for these sessions.

Kits are not included in the StampFest fee, and they are not required for attending. You may bring your own paper/projects and work on those all weekend or you may order from the kit selection beginning Tuesday, July 2nd. There will be 7 Stamp A Stack selections (2 Christmas) and then I will have packets of precut cards from stamp camps that can be purchased individually as supplies last. Additional kit offerings will be available on my blog and in an additional sign up email that I will be sending out on July 1st

I’ll also have a table of retired items for sale at great prices. This will include stamps, papers, pads and other items. You do not have to pay the room fee if you are only dropping by to shop the retirement items.

Here are the Stamp a Stack selections. (Timeless Talk, Hearts a Flutter, Secret Garden, Six Sided Sampler, Cycle Celebration)

Hearts a Flutter Banner and Beautiful Wings

Hearts a flutter

I think I reached for all of my favorite things when I was creating this card. I just can’t get enough of Hearts a Flutter and this new Honeycomb embossing folder. Primrose Petals and any blue (this one is Pool Party) seems to be my current color addiction. Obviously I could not be any more in LOVE with this More Amore DSP. Sorry, pun intended. It is necessary, sometimes, to keep all those other voices in my head entertained!

This was just basic die cutting and the only thing stamped was the sentiment, but I have a little tip for you. {TIP} To get the hexagon shapes, just run a piece of DSP through the Big Shot in the Honeycomb EF and then snip out the little inserts along the score lines! Fun stuff!!

Thanks for stopping by!

Chalkboard Art Technique

Chalk technique

This is the masculine card that we made at Stamp Camp last month for Valentines Day. I really like the way it turned out, so I used it for my Darling husband’s valentine. He loved the new technique. The technique is very simple. Add a chalkboard background by rubbing a little chalk or white ink on black or green card stock with a sponge. I like to emboss my main images using white ep to make them easier to work with. You can then add depth, detail and even color with colored pencils or our white chalk pen. Add additional elements by stamping in white ink with no embossing. Be sure to add those elements after the embossing or they will grab your powder.

Have fun trying this technique!

Hearts A Flutter

Hearts a Flutter

Here is a sweet and simple valentine, created using the Hearts a Flutter set from the Spring Mini. Love that lacy heart stamp. I used a small strip of my Sweet Shop DSP (that is still on sale in the Clearance rack for $2.59. How FAB is that!?) The ribbon is from the Sale-a-bration Sycamore Street Ribbon and Button Pack. It is so nice to work with. I am hoarding this stuff.

Thanks for looking!
