Valentines Printable to Color and Stamp

-
Image
  We have a new free, printable available to celebrate the holiday especially dedicated to love. Go to the free Valentine listing here. It is a one page pdf to be printed on 8.5 inch x 11 sheet of paper. I usually print mine on cardstock so I can use markers, but you can print on whatever paper your printer can take. Above is the XOXO card layout colored in and decorated with a few of our rubber stamps. Using pink and red inks for the stamps makes this project super fun. Valentines is probably one of the best holidays to paper craft. The color palette always looks great and stamping in reds and pinks always comes out beautiful. We have so many bicycle designs in rubber stamps that you are sure to find the perfect one for your collection. See all bicycle stamps here . Above is our Floral Bicycle Rubber Stamp which is an excellent design that goes well with many occasions. The other stamp seen across the top is from Lace Mesh Borders Rubber Stamp Collection .

Lunar New Year with the Color Red

  Celebrations for Lunar New Year are currently underway and traditionally last for two weeks. The Lunar New Year, also referred to as the Spring Festival, includes Chinese New Year, Seollal in Korea and Tet in Vietnam along with others. We can celebrate in our craft rooms using the beautiful color red. In this project, we create with all red papers for the festivities. In the card above, there is a layer of wood veneer to represent this year's animal which happens to be the wood snake.  The snake matches up with the years of the people born in 1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001, 2013 and 2025. The snake, which has a better reputation in eastern cultures is associated with intelligence, resilience and love. In addition, the animal this year is about returning to one's natural state or true nature and letting go for growth. For the card, we embossed on the stamps from our  Summer Tiles Rubber Stamp Collection .  The design used is symmetrical and can be set square or ...

Melting Snowflakes and the Blues

  Craft away any post-holiday blues with a snowflake themed paper project. I created this card with our  Snowflake Background   and Cocoa Girl Rubber Stamp. Hot cocoa and snowflakes melt away all sadness! I stamped Cocoa Girl Rubber Stamp in Stazon Midnight Blue ink along with one of the ticket stamps from  Vintage Holiday Tickets  (set of 4). Snowflake Background was stamped in the light blue shade Distress Oxide called Tumbled Glass. Decorative deckle scissors were used on the left and postage stamp decorative scissors for the edges of the ticket part. Burnish the edges with Distress Oxide in a dark blue shade (Chipped Sapphire). The textured "paper" from Temu provide an excellent snow falling look and add extra dimension. A die cut snowflake in blue paper and plastic silver glitter snowflake embellishment are the rest of the supplies.
