STAMPtember - Day Twenty-Seven - Serenity

Everyone knows I don't really like the outdoors.  It's humid, sometimes it's smelly or swampy, and there's bugs.  I hate bugs.

Anyways I do often like to create art that takes place outdoors, especially if trees are involved.  I hadn't done shadow stamping in SO long.  It made me want to do more.

STAMPtember - Day Twenty-Two -

I haven't played with these stamps in SO long.  They're about fifteen years old from a tiny store I used to take monthly classes at.  The die is really old too, one of the first I ever got that wasn't just a circle or square.

STAMPtember - Day Twenty-One - My Brave Friend

I loooooove how this tag turned out!  I used a mixed media background I made eons ago to stamp Indie Girl on, so I didn't have to color her skin.  I just love that look.  It's shimmery but you can't tell that in the photo!

STAMPtember - Day Nineteen - Walking In The Rain

When I was a kid the greatest thing in the world to me was MMC.  If you don't know what that stands for go google it and marvel at how DIFFERENT Britney looked before she grew up and how LITTLE Ryan Gosling was.

ANYWAY.  Before the Britneys and Justins and Ryans they took a few Mouseketeers and made a group called The Party.  They covered a song (which I didn't know was a cover back then btw I thought it was an original song of theirs) called "Walking In The Rain" and when I decided to make this card, I had that song in my head.  And I may've sang it ten or twenty times.


I looooove watercolors.

Anyways, just a few challenges:

STAMPtember - Day Seventeen - What's In That Glass??

I don't drink, but I really really love this stamp.


She's stamped on CLAY.  I love this technique because it looks like paper but it DOESN'T look like paper.



That doesn't HAVE to be wine in her glass.  It could be juice, or tea, or, wtf she's boozing it up.  She's a party girl :D

STAMPtember - Day Sixteen - Flying Fish

This is SUCH a leap for me, pun intended.  I'm not good at masculine cards and I have a hard time with anything that's not sparkly shiny shimmery girly.  You know this about me.  I do like how this turned out though.

STAMPtember - Day Three - Back To School. (UGH!!)

I feel the pain for all these kids back in school (I refuse to accept that some sadistic schools send kids back in AUGUST let alone JULY!  That shit didn't happen when I was a kid.) so I've got a thank you card for those who'll have a good teacher this year.

STAMPtember - Day One - Look At The Stars

IT'S STAMPTEMBER!!!!!!!!  Also known as National Stamping Month, this is the best time of year for STAMPING!  Once again, I'm trying to cram this month with non-DT posts using cards that have stamping OTHER THAN sentiments.  It's not the easiest thing for me to do, but I have to say this card was SO fun.  I just don't do heat embossing enough.  It gives you so many possibilities!!!

I also love this card 'cause it's inspired by Coldplay lyrics.  I actually got this stamp set BECAUSE of the Coldplay lyrics.  And when I got the stamps I had to get the matching dies too and the rest was history!
