Plume Portrait Giveaway on Paper Crafts Magazine FB and Stampendous Blog TODAY!


Today I'm posting a CAS card using the Stampendous Plume Portrait! I'm saying all this upfront because it's being featured today on Paper Crafts Connection FACEBOOK page.

The beauty of it is there are prizes for grabs.  If you make a comment on each Facebook page you have a chance to win this stamp! Just comment, that's all.

I made a postage sheet with some help from my stamp-a majig and tracing tool. Then I colored them all in with copic markers.


I went very CAS with this card, I tried to make it up with the fun layers that indicate the era that this lady was probably wearing the hat, but in the end the CAS style won! I tore out a stamp and spritzed it with some coffee spray (Fran Seiford's special mix of... instant coffee and water.) and then heat set it with a heat tool. The lace are all RAk's from my friend, Lori and the fiber yarn is from the $1 (I think I used it just last week on another card.).

The design team has some inspiration today, too! No need to comment on our blogs for the prize, but we like comment lovin' every once in a while.

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...
