Blue Knight Rubber Stamps - New - Snowman Stamp Set

 Good Morning Friends,  I don't know about where you live, but we have sure had some really hot weather the last week or so.  We had two days this week that it cooled down, but yesterday it came back with the extreme heat.  Today is suppose to be really warm, too.

Blue Knight has some really cute NEW Snowman Stamps that I am showcasing on my cards today.  They are really cute and also have matching snowman dies to go with them.  There are four sizes of snowmen in this set plus  the Merry Christmas sentiment.   

I started this card by stamping the Tree and Snowy Field stamp directly to white card stock.  I, then, used the Cloud Stencil and Distress inks to make the sky.  Next I stamped the snowmen on scraps of white card stock and colored them with Copic Markers.  I used the Snowman Dies to cut them out and adhere them to my card.  I took the die for the Merry Christmas and placed it on white card stock.  I left the sentiment in the die and stamped the snowman on it while in the die.  This seems to work out really well for getting it to come out perfect.  

I started out with cutting some snowy designer paper to use for this card.  I used the Merry Christmas sentiment and the snowman family with the dies to cut them out and them colored with Copic markers.

I really like this set and I can see me using it a lot. I love both of these cards and cannot pick a favorite.  

Thank you for stopping in today.  I appreciate you looking at my cards.

Patriotic Cards for Veterans

 I just wanted to post some of the cards I made for the Veterans Honor flight and for Veterans in the local Assisted Living and Memory Care facility in my area. I had a lot if fun with the ice cream cones and different sentiments.   I liked the napkin I used on the first one.

Thank you,  for dropping in today.  I will be back soon.

Blue Knight Rubber Stamps - Silhouette Trees on a Hill

 Good Morning, my crafty friends.  Hope you all had a wonderful weekend and woke up feeling rested to start the new week.

Today I am sharing cards that I made using the NEW Blue Knight Silhouette Trees on the Hill stamps.  It is really easy to make a beautiful card with this stamp.

I started this card by stamping the My Country Tis of Thee background stamp on a piece of white card stock.  I, then added clouds using the Heidi Pettie Cloud Stencil and blue inks.  I stamped the Silhouette Trees over the background stamp to complete my card.

This card was started by stamping the Silhouette Trees on a Hill and the sentiment from this set on a piece of designer paper.  I added the mats and adhered them together to complete my card.

Thank you, for coming by today for a visit.  It is always good to have visitors.  Have a great week.

Blue Knight Rubber Stamps - Be Kind Anyway

 Hello Crafty Friends, I hope you all are having a wonderful Monday, this far, on this new week.  Mine is going okay, I had an appointment out of the area this morning and I just got home.  Happy to be home, that is for sure.  The older I get the more I get the saying, "There is no place like home".

Today I am sharing cards that I made with Blue Knight's newest background stamp called "Be Kind Anyway".

This card was really easy to make.  I stamped the background on my designer paper and then stamped the Real Love image over it.  I thought the stamp was perfect over this background.

I stamped my Be Kind Anyway stamp on the designer paper.  I stamped the image from Girls with Pets over the background to complete this card.

Thank you, so much, for coming by to check out my cards.  I appreciate it so much.

Blue Knight Lake Retreat

 Hello, Friends.  Hope those of you in the USA had a wonderful 4th of July.  We had a good one, but it was busy and went way too fast. For those not in the USA, I hope you had a wonderful weekend, too.  Our weekend was really hot.  Wherever you are, I hope you were able to keep cool.

I am sharing cards that I made with the new Blue Knight Stamp set - Lake Retreat.  I enjoy the beautiful scenes that I can pull out my Copic markers and color it any way I want.  

I stamped the Lake Retreat image and sentiment on white card stock and colored it with Copic markers.  I used the Heidi Pettie Cloud Stencil to make the sky along with tempting turquoise ink.  

I stamped the image on white card stock and colored it with Copic markers, I chose different colors for this card.  I used an eclipse  die and liked the way it looked with this image.  It took a little more time to make the card, but it was worth it. 

Thank you, so much, for coming by to take a look at my cards.  Have a wonderful week.

Blue Knight Stamps - Silhouette Flower Garden

 Hello, Friends and Happy Monday, to all of. you.   I don't know about your neighborhood, but it is getting extremely hot in mine.  It is early morning, around 82 degrees and the humidity is terrible.  Thankfully, I can be inside today and hopefully be cool.  I hope everyone's air conditioners keep working.  I know the heat and guys are usually covered up with appointments in this heat.

Today I am going to share a couple of cards that I made using the NEW Blue Knight Silhouette Flower Garden.  This is a perfect set to use with designer paper or using a piece of card stock and making your own scene and sky.  I chose to use designer paper because I have a ton of it in my stash.  I can't resist buying paper with the beautiful skies and the ones that are perfect with most silhouette stamps.  I have a lot of silhouette stamps and Blue Knight makes the best ones with wonderful scenes.  It makes my card making easy and they helps me greatly as I do not have a lot of free time these days.  Enough of my chatting, I am going to show you the cards I made with this stamp.

Both cards were made with Blue Knight Rubber Stamps using the Silhouette Flower Garden stamp and sentiment.  I stamped them directly on the designer paper.  It doesn't get any better than that.  My non stamping friends think I spend a lot of time doing cards like these.  

Thank you, for stopping by today.  Have a great week and for those of those in the areas having heat advisories, try to stay in and keep cool.

Blue Knight Rubber Stamps - My Country tis of Thee

 Hello Friends, today I am going to share cards that I made with the new My Country Tis of Thee stamp by Blue Knight Rubber Stamps.   It works very well with the Flag stamp that is also a new release.

I stamped the My Country Tis of Thee and the Tattered Flag on a piece of card stock.  I cut the frame using a die that I purchased from Your Next Stamp and I think they went out of business.  I stamped the sentiment, from the God Bless America stamp set, in the center of it.  I cut the mats and attached everything to the card base.

For this card I stamped the My Country Tis of Thee  stamp on white card stock.  I cut the title out to place at the top of the card.  I used star dies and cut one out of the navy card stock to place over the card stock that has the My Country Tis of Thee stamped on it. I added another red die, placed a silver heart and a smaller navy heart over it.  I used a hand held heart punch to make all the tiny heart that I randomly placed over the navy piece.  

I hope you enjoyed the cards today.  Come back again soon.
