Just Poppin' In to say...


CELEBRATE!


It's Wednesday for me and I'm half way through the week, not exhausted yet, and I believe I still have some crafting mojo left for this week and into the weekend! Woohoo!

I'm sharing a card with you today using a brand new stamp set and company that I came across in Splitcoast Stampers forum.  The Ways to Use It Challenge moderator is Kim Hughes. I used that challenge a few weeks ago on this card, and well, I just went snooping around for inspiration and found out she has a new company. She has an enormous amount of talent and history in the paper crafting industry, as if most of us didn't already know her by name, but she's opened up her own online store called Paper Smooches! She is the creator of all the stamps too! These darling stamps are so perfect for CAS cards because they give you enough character on your project to do more with less.

A close-up of this cutie pa-tootie!
Oh yeah, this little card is going into the "Be Our Guest" invitation too!


Details:
Stamps: Pretty Phrases, Birthday Buddies
Paper: Neenah Smooth White, Kraft
Ink: Brilliance Graphite Black, Prismacolor Markers and Pencils, PITT artist brush tip pen
Accessories: paper cutter, scissors, ruler, pencil, oh yeah a Stamp-a-majig.

Let's Celebrate Plain Jane Style!

There is an Anni-Verve-Sary party going on today! Verve Stamp Company is 2 years old! The hop started at Verve's blog , so come hop on board and see over 5 dozen projects that are sure to get your Verve on! I've been waiting for the right time to blog about this project and when the opportunity came to join in the anniversary blog hop for Verve I knew it was time. My blog hop project today uses all Plain Jane Bible verses from Verve. I saw this project at Susan Roberts gallery on Splitcoaststampers and went to her blog to get the details . I decided to make one for my mother as a Christmas present...in 2008. Yep, I just now finished it and I have the blog hop to thank. Using sketches would have made this a whole lot faster. LOL The two cards shown in the picture above use the latest Plain Jane release for Psalm 121:1-2 (hanging on box) and Hebrews 11:1 (in front of box). And I'll give the details below, but first here's a slide show of the whole year. Hebr...
