Train Tracks by Blue Knight Rubber Stamps~

Hi guys!
Today I'm sharing two cards created using the newly
released Train Tracks  by Blue Knight Rubber Stamps.


Both of these cards are created with the same supplies. I just
added the Sun in different places. 

I used a homemade circle mask to create the 
Sun behind the trees. PanPastels are used for 
color. Archival/ Jet Black ink is what is used to stamp
the image.
The Sun was added so it was peeking out 
from behind the Hill.  The silhouette stag deer is
from the Momma Bear & Friends set.  The bird
is from the Birds II set. Adhesive used is by 
Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Introducing Cloudbank 15 ~poem journal

Hi guys!
Exciting times for sure. Who would have ever
thought my creation would be the cover of Cloudbank 15?
Surely not me, but I'm so grateful that it was perfect
for this publication.


My only connection with this publication is the cover because
my gift is not writing poetry.  But it has opened my eyes to
this beautiful style of writing.  I'm reading the book!!



I want to thank Cloudbank (Michael) for this wonderful 
opportunity.  Having a COVER was the last thing on my
creative list, so I either keep going or stop :):) 

Cloudbank 15 



This card was also published in RubberStampMadness a few
months ago.  Supplies used : Blue Knight Rubber Stamp/ Campsite
Adhesive: Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.

Thanks for letting me gush!!!

The Light of the World by Blue Knight Rubber Stamps~

Hi guys! 
Today is my turn to share with you two
cards created using the newly released stamp
The Light of the World by Blue Knight Rubber
Stamps. 
Both cards are colored with
PanPastels and speckled with acrylic paint
(black and white).



The Sunrise & Sunset card is stamped with Versafine ink and
used on a stamping platform.  It is best to use a stamping
platform when creating with silhouette stamps so the 
image can be re-stamped several times, to get a crisp image.
The second card is colored with PanPastels/Day & Night set
and stamped with Versafine ink.  Pixie Dust is used on the
star on both cards. Adhesive used is by Scrapbook Adhesives by
3L.

Texture Plates and Mixed Media with Topflight Stamps~

 Hi guys!
Creating for Topflight Stamps using Carabelle Stamps and
a Texture Plate, which is new to me.  Always fun
to try new things!!


In the mist of trying new things I got hooked!!!  Topflight Stamps has lots of  these
Texture Plates in many different designs  in the store.  You will want them all~


I have all the details on the Topflight blog.  I hope you will check it out! The
 card has layered images on top of the textured background. Scrapbook Adhesives
by 3L is used to add dimension to the images.  I used two
 of the Gel Plate backgrounds created from the texture plate. One 
for the card base and the other for stamped images.  Pick up the rest on
the Topflight Blog~

Adding Stamps to Scrapbook Pages~

Hi guys!
I wanted to share a couple of scrapbook pages that I used
stamps on to create the embellishments for the pages. Another
reason I'm a big fan of stamps ~


I used 4 different stamps by Blue Knight Rubber Stamp to create 
elements that go with the grid pattern paper.  


The center image is two stamps put together to create the block
 for focal on the page.  The 3 stamps shown here are:
Silhouette Corner Foliage, Chickadee in the Woods and 
 Silhouette Sportsmen.


The forth stamp used is called Silhouette Stag. The inside page is 
10" X 10". I was able to put it on a Stamp platform so I could
re-stamp the silhouette images several times.  I used Versaclair/
Onyx Black.



On this page I used  3 stamps to help with
embellishing this page. The focal consists of: Boys with Pets,
Momma Bear and Titus, The Great Adventurer. 
Both pages are adhered with Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.
