Birthday Greetings

Hello friends! Lin here, with a birthday card, since it's our birthday month here at The Craft's Meow!

I stamped the open horizontal chevrons from our Geometric Foundations stamp set onto 4 different colors of solid and printed papers from Graphic 45 Secret Garden Patterns and Solids paper pad, then cut the chevrons apart and repositioned them to form these vertical chevrons. I lifted a few of them here and there to give some added interest and dimension, and added some adhesive jewel stickers to the top of each column:

Then I just stamped the birthday sentiment from Stitched Sentiments and colored in the letters with markers that matched my colors.

I hope my card inspires you to try something a little different with your stamps, too. Please visit The Craft's Meow Store to see these and more of our beautiful stamp sets. While you're there, be sure to visit our new Gallery to find lots more inspiration from my TCM teamies! Enjoy your day!

Hello, how are you?

Nina here on the blog with a simple friendship card using The Craft's Meow's Stitched Sentiments stamp set. I also used Want2Scrap's Nestabling Labels Twenty Five Silver Rhinestone and my favorite Ribbon Rose 1".

I first cut a panel from the Basic Grey paper and adhered that to a red cardstock to show a bit on the sides. I then die cut the center with Spellbinders Labels 25. I centered the panel on the card front without adhering it and stamped the sentiment in the center hole.

I popped the card panel using foam dots and carefully placed the Nestabling Labels Twenty Five Silver Rhinestone around the frame. Finally, I adhered the Ribbon Rose 1" along the bottom.

Have a great day, friends!

Nina

Our clear stamps are made in the USA from high grade photopolymer resin that resists yellowing. These polymers are designed and produced for the printing industry and are meant to carry and transfer ink, which is why they stamp so well.

How would you like to win all SIX of the new stamp sets? We will randomly select one winner from all the comments left on one of the blogs on the hop... it's a secret which one! The more blogs you comment on, the greater your chance of winning! And wait 'til you see the gorgeous creations from our design team, guest designers and stamp illustrators!!! You have until 9:00 pm Pacific on Saturday, June 23rd to make the rounds, so there's plenty of time. ;)
