Bird Bath by Blue Knight Rubber Stamps~

 Hi guys!
Today I'm creating with the NEWLY released stamp
called Bird Bath
by Blue Knight Rubber Stamps.
It is really cute!!



Both of the cards are stamped with Archival / Jet Black
ink and colored with panpastels and colored pencils.  On
the top card a bottom border is added using white photo
 corners.  I used a circle punch out to create
a mask for the moon.  Also added to the cards are
Birds 2 and Silhouette Cattails

Pine Trees and Waterfall by Blue Knight Rubber Stamps~

  Hi guys!
Today I'm sharing two cards created using the NEWLY released
stamp called Pine Trees & Waterfall
by Blue Knight Rubber Stamps.
Made in USA product!!!!!



Both cards are stamped using Archival/Jet Black ink and are
colored with Panpastels.  The sky is masked off
on both cards, to use a circle punch out, to create the 
sun and moon.  Makes it so easy!!  The pine trees are stamped with
Archival /Library Green.  Just be careful and wipe around the pine trees 
with damp rag before stamping on the card front.  Then I stamped
with the Archival/Jet Black ink (but lightly around the
pine trees) to get the scene. The Jet Black ink highlighted the
pine trees.  Love the look it gave them.
I also added Silhouette Sportsman, Birds 2Momma bear & friends,
and Buck, doe & fawn to the cards.
All adhesive is by Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.

Happy Mother's Day with Darkroom Door ~

Happy Mother's Day!!!
Today is your day, hope you enjoy such a special time
dedicated to  our wonderful Mothers.
I'm using the NEWLY released Artsy Hearts stamp and 
stencil by Darkroom Door to create my special Mother's Day card.



I used embossing powder to create a resist for the background.
The color is a mix of Distressed Oxide inks/Cracked Pistachio
and the NEW Saltwater Taffy. The embossing powder is by
Ranger/Wendy Vecchi called Tea Rose.  Coordinates with the
Saltwater Taffy so good.


I used several different stamps by Darkroom Door to add to the
mixed media feel of the card. Other stamps by Darkroom Door used are
Faded Circles, All Occasions and Number Medley (fave).
 I loved how it came together!!
The flower is from the Beautiful Blooms set and colored in with
the same inks I used for the background mix. I trimmed it out and used
dimensional adhesive. All adhesive is by Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.

Scenic Lake by Blue Knight Rubber Stamps~

 Hi guys!
Today I'm sharing the NEWLY released Scenic Lake
by Blue Knight Rubber Stamps.  This is a beautiful
addition to the Scenery stamps that Blue Knight is 
known for.




Both cards are created in the same way.  The stamped image is colored with
panpastels and highlighted with colored pencils.  The top card is masked off
on the mountain top so the fawn from the Buck, Doe & Fawn set could be
added. The bottom card, the lake is masked off so half of the 
Silhouette Moose  could be added. I used Archival Jet Black ink on
both cards. All adhesive is by Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L. So many 
possibilities to create your own scene with the help of a cool
stamp.  Blue Knight Rubber Stamps has plenty of that!!!
