OSAT Blog Hop – Happy Father’s Day

OSAT Hop Button Father's Day My Soldier

“There are many brave Soldiers, but this one is mine!”

Good Day my sweet stampin’ friends…you may have hopped here from Andrea Pancrazio’s awesome project and I urge you to Keep Calm and Hop On (LoL).  If you tuned in from Pals Paper Arts Color Challenge don’t worry the post wasn’t abducted by aliens, it’s right below this post.  Before scrolling on down, why don’t ya check out “One Stamp at a Time” (OSAT) Father’s Day/Masculine blog hop for June.  This hop was created by none other than the Super Power Paper Ninja, Andrea Tracy Tucker at One Stampin’ Mother Tucker and I’m still in awe by the team’s extra-ordinary talent.

MAGGIE MADE TIPS:

  • Don’t Spill Your Coffee.   All I’m going to say about this is, “keep a lid on it!”  Just because I now work from home doesn’t mean that I can leave an open coffee cup on my craft desk.  Enough said! (LoL)
  • Add Dimension.  When your image is flat and you want to add color or dimension all you have to do is stamp the image on a different piece of yardstick or designer series paper and cut it out close to the lines and adhere it to the image with dimensional.
  • Printed Sentiment.  Nope, it’s not a stamp set.  It’s the Marine’s Corp’s Riffleman’s Creed.  The first line goes like this, “This is my rifle.  There are many like it, but this one is mine.”  That’s when it hit me……as I was exploring which stamp set to use and I saw G.I. Joe in his cute little parachute.

Introducing Stamp, Ink, Paper Card Challenge

Blank

Nobody knows….how excited I am for today!  Why?  Because today Stamp, Ink, Paper card challenge is born.  The brain child of Justin Krieger is going to take card challenges by the tail.  I urge you to join us in celebrating today’s birth by entering the challenge and give it all you’ve got.  I’m also giving away some blog candy to one lucky player who enters the challenge.

Blog Candy:  A complete paper share of the Designer Series Paper Stacks.  One lucky winner will win a total of 36 page share of the Go Wild, Cherry on Top, and Pretty Petals.      The number of entries will be assigned a number as cards are uploaded onto challenge page.  Random.Org will be used for winner selection and winner will announced here the day after the challenge ends.

Challenge 1

I’m an earth tony type of girl and I have traveled the world many times over during my 25 year stint with the Air Force.  I used numbers instead of a sentiment for my card to introduce myself because numbers play a huge part of my life.  Although it’s June 8th…(19)68 was the best year of my parents life.  Why?  It was the year their only daughter was born.  It was a great for my mom because she was surrounded by nuts! LOL…now go on over to Stamp, Ink, Paper and read more about me and the other design team members.

I met Justin just shy of two years and he is the epitome of card-making perfection!  When he invited me to become a part of this fabulous design team I felt so overwhelmed with happiness.  I feel so honored to be among the truly best card designers out there…I aimed for the moon because I knew I’d end up among the stars.  The blog candy is a brand new LOTUS BLOSSOM stamp set.

MAGGIE MADE TIPS:

  • Sentiment Not Need.  That’s right, there is no rule that states a card must have a sentiment.  I have numbers that mark the birth of today’s card challenge.  Numbers mark a day of most importance in our lives like an anniversary or birthday.

An Awesome Thanks with Blog Candy

Thank You

As you are aware, the Pals Paper Arts Design Team selected me to join them and I just can’t stop beaming with excitement. As a way to THANK YOU for the last three years of support I have some blog candy to give away. But before I tell you how you can enter to win look at how easy it is to make cards with wash tape.

Thank You

Thank You

THIS IS WHY THIS PRODUCT IS NEEDED

Don’t blink…or you’ll miss it. I used the already scored and cut Whisper White Note Cards & Envelopes – 131527 and the Watercolor Wonder Designer Washi Tape – 133000, stamped the sentiment with the Yippee-Skippee Clear Stamp Set – 131344 and BOOOOM!  Just don’t forget to use your Paper Snip Scissors to cut of the excess. Be careful not to cut yourself…they are sharp.
