Welcome to our Australasian Blog Hop. A small group of us have been creating with the "For the Love of Crafting—August Stamp of the Month" Stamp set. If you have arrived here from Creating with Kara Davies then you are in the right place. If you landed here another way, please join in by following the link at the end of this post. Follow the links, check out all the amazing ideas and eventually you'll come right back here to where you started.
Today I would like to share with you my projects which feature the For the Love of Crafting—August Stamp of the Month available exclusively throughout August 2018 for $27 or for just $7.50 when you spend $75. Please note that prices do not include GST. Beginning 1 July 2018, 10% GST will be added to your order at checkout.
This is the most amazing set for all my crafty friends. I Love crafting, Craft today do housework tomorrow, Craftiness is Happiness, I craft so hard I sweat glitter... then some positive uplifting stuff like Do what you love and Enjoy the Small Stuff, Plus the typewriter and the camera. Perfect for every craft room, scrapbooker and stamper or cardmaker.
My first card I made using the "Enjoy the Small Stuff" and Typewriter that I stamped with Peacock Exclusive Inks™ Stamp Pad on white cardstock. Then I matted that on 12" × 12" Peacock Cardstock cut down to 4x4 inches (the dark side). I LOVE the colour Peacock as its been really versatile, in so many of the packs we've had in the last few months.
My most favourite paper of the Workshops Your Way® Documented Scrapbooking Kit
is the white brick wall paper. I backed the card almost the whole way on the white card and added the peacock spot ribbon from the Enchantment Ribbon Pack to the bottom of the card.
The next card I did was using the Eggplant Exclusive Inks™ Stamp Pad and stamped the camera all over the white cardstock. Then I cut it down a little and added another piece of white only slightly larger so it had just a small white edge. Then I added the purple spots paper from the Documented paper pack at 4 x 5.25 inches. I added stripe of the purple over the top of the stamped cameras and added the 3D adhesive-backed wooden words "Smile" from the Documented Titles.
I also did last month's blog hop with the stamp too, as below using the Story by Stacy "Story Starter". using the "do what you love" heart. Click here to see that post.

I love the colours you chose for your cards, they both look great. Just a query about he size of the paper used in the peacock card? (12"x12")
ReplyDeleteIt started out as 12x12 and I cut it down, I better edit my sentence to make it more clear.
DeleteUsing the wood title on a card is genious!
ReplyDeleteThanks Kara, I can't handle too lumpy bumpy on my pages so its perfect on the cards.
