Hello, crafty friends. Today I have an adorably fun Valentine creation to share with you using the Nuts & Bolts stamp set.
I have to admit that I am a sucker for holiday themed stamp sets so this set was on my "A" list. I mean, who doesn't love (and remember) all the Valentines we traded at grade school, right? I loved opening them up to see who it was from and what Valentine they chose for me. Remember those days? lol
The Nuts & Bolts stamp set is great stamp set for Valentines Day projects but can also be used for birthdays. I love these sentiments!!
For today's creation, I chose the cute robot holding a heart. I think all three are cute, but the robot with the heart is extra cute. :)
After stamping him using Memento Black ink, I colored him using Smoky Slate and Real Red Stampin' Blends and then hand cut him out. Next, I stamped a partial image of him (focusing on the heart area) and stamped a few more hearts on a piece of scrap paper and colored them with a Real Red Stampin' Blend. Finally, I hand cut these hearts out.
After adhering my second heart onto my robot, I added some Shimmery Crystal Effects over the heart to make it more festive.
My robot, remaining hearts and sentiment were added to my completed card front using Dimensionals.

This is a quilt card I made back in January at my up line's (Chris Smith) home. I added the embossed flower using the Daydream Medallions stamp set along with the SAB stamp set Madison Avenue . These two stamp sets work well together. The flower petals were made with the Floral Frames Framelits die. I will probably store these two sets together. : ) Recipe: Daydream Medallions, Madison Avenue (SAB) and Vintage Verses (SAB) stamp sets; Sycamore Street DSP (SAB), Island Indigo and Tangerine Tango card stock; Island Indigo, Versa Mark pad inks; White Emb. powder, Floral Frames Framelits, Postage Stamp punch, Square Lattice Emb.

Happy Stamping, and hope you get to stamp a latte!
Happy Friday! Today, I have 2 very cute creations to share with you using the Silly Old Bear Suite . One Pooh Bear is a die cut right from the Silly Old Bear 12" x 12" DSP , while the other Pooh Bear is stamped in Early Espresso ink and colored with the new Golden Glow Stampin' Blends. Every image on 2 sheets of the Silly Old Bear 12" x 12" DSP can be die cut out using the Sweet Old Friends Dies ! How cool is that?! The first card I made (on the right side) uses the new In Color Crisp Cantaloupe. I stamped the frame from the Sweet Old Words Stamp Set using Crisp Cantaloupe and die cut it out using the coordinating Sweet Old Words Dies followed by another Crisp Cantaloupe cardstock layer. I also die cut 2 honey pot images from the Silly Old Bear 12" x 12" DSP and a tree stump from the Sweet Old Friends Dies. I created a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" money holder card using a 7 1/4" x 5 1/2" piece of Crisp Cantaloupe cardstock scored ...
