Blue Knight - Little Silhouette Lighthouse

Hello, my friends.  This week at Blue Knight Rubber Stamps, the design team is creating cards using the NEW Little Silhouette Lighthouse stamps.   I used Blue Knight Designer paper for both of these cards.



I stamped my image directly on the Night Sky 2 Designer paper.  I chose a sentiment from the All Things Are Possible stamp set.


I stamped my lighthouse image on the Day Sky 2 Paper.  The sentiment is from the Palm Tree Beach stamp set.

That concludes my post for today.  I hope you enjoyed the cards.  Thanks, to the paper, they were really quick cards.  I am happy you stopped in to check them out.  Have a great week.

 Good Morning, Friends.  Hope this finds you well and off to the start of a wonderful week.  It won't belong before we start to see lower temps now that we are officially into Fall.  I love the crisp Fall weather, but I do not look forward to those chilly day so Winter that will follow.

Today I am sharing two cards with you using the Blue Knight Stormy Skies Designer Paper.  I think this is my favorite paper pad so far. 

I started this card off by stamping the Silhouette Mountain River stamp on a piece the 
Stormy Skies Designer Paper.  I decide to stamp a sentiment on it from the Birthday Wishes stamp set.


I used the Windmill and Corn stamp set for this one.  I stamped it directly on the Stormy Skies Designer Paper.   I love the the lightning in on this one.    I then stamped the sentiment from the Verses 2 stamp set.

 Good Morning.  Hope this finds each of you having a great Monday morning with everything going smoothly.  I know that Monday's have a way of not always go as planned. ~smile~

Today I am featuring cards made with the new Stormy Skies designer paper. Actually the rest of September I will have cards made with this paper.


This card was made using the Egret and Waterway Stamp.  I stamped the image directly on the Stormy Skies paper and colored the image using my Copic Markers.  If you look closely, you can see that this particular piece of paper has a hint of a rainbow behind the main tree.



My second card I used the same pack of Stormy Skies designer paper.  I stamped the  Heaven's Gate and sentiment directly on the paper.   I used an angel die to cut the the angels from white sparkly paper and then placed rhinestones around to look like stars.

Stormy Skies Designer Paper

 Hello Stamping Friends.  Hope this finds all of you doing well and rested up from the weekend.  I know most of you are probably laughing at that.  Weekends are generally packed full with catching up with chores and then lots of fun stuff which makes one really tired on Monday.  ~smile~

Today I am sharing two cards I made using Stormy Skies Designer Paper.  This is definitely one of my favorites.   Well, maybe they are all my favorite because I love them all.  I have always had a passion for  designer paper.


I stamped the Island Reflection stamp directly on the Stormy Sky designer paper.  Honestly, I thought that was all that was needed to complete my card so I did not add a sentiment.  


I am loving the lightning on this paper.  I stamped the Blue Knight Iwo Jima Stamp on the designer  paper.  Viola - it is done.  It just doesn't get any easier than this.

Thank you, everyone, for coming by today.  Have a wonderful week.

Blue Knight Rubber Stamps - New Designer Paper

 Good Monday Morning to all of you reading my blog today.  It is going to be another hot one in Southern Illinois today.  A good day to stay in and craft, not that I really needed an excuse.  LOL

The Blue Knight Team will be sharing cards made with the NEW Day Sky 3 and Night Sky 3 Designer Papers.  I am loving all the Sky designer paper, they are so easy to work with.  I am just not saying that, they truly make beautiful cards and it doesn't take hours to do it either.  For those of you who have not been able to attend a show where Blue Knight is, you would be amazed to see all the beautiful cards on their board.  Many have been done with the designer papers.  I had the opportunity to attend a show on Saturday and I loved seeing all the cards.  Many I had not viewed previously.  It was a fun day.  It is always good to get to chat with the owners, Scott and Lynn.  Lynn does the best make and takes, too.

Here are my cards made with the new Day 3 Designer papers.


These cards were made with the Flying Swans stamp set and the Night Sky 3 designer paper.

This card was made by using the Silhouette Barn Rooftop and  Night Sky 3 Designer Paper.

GREAT week.

Blue Knight Sun/Moon, Circles Stencil

 Good Morning, Stamping Friends.  Hope you are having a great Monday, so far.  It is a little chilly here, but I am hoping it warms up this afternoon.  

I am going to share a couple of cards that I made with the NEW Sun/ Moon and Circles Stencil.  I can see lots of uses for these.


I chose a piece of Pattern Paper to start this card.  I stamped the Silhouette Dancing Girls on it.  I then put my circles over the top and and sponged the circles where I wanted them using pink ink.  I wanted it to look like bubbles floating through the air.  


For this card, I stamped the images on the card stock.  I placed the sun/moon mask over the card.  I used distress ink brush color over the grass and sponged the sky.  I took off the mask for the sun/moon and brushed it with ink leaving it a little lighter than the sky.  

I hope you liked my cards.  I am happy you stopped by.  Hope you come back, soon.

Blue Knight Buffalo Stencil

 Hello, Stamping Friends.  I hope this finds everyone well and ready to start a new week.  We are getting some really nice days, in between the rainy ones.  :) I won't complain about the rain because around August we will be wishing we had some.  

Today I am sharing cards I made with the NEW Buffalo Stamp Through Stencil Set that Blue Knight has recently put in their store.  There are lots of other stencils there also.  The stencils come with 2 masks, one thick stencil and one thin stencil.  The Thick stencil is the one you brush color on and the thin one is the one you stamp over.


When I first saw this stencil, I thought to myself, I have got to do this in pink.  Yes, I like pink.  LOL I chose designer paper in my stash and then  I started by using the thick stencil and brushed pink ink over it.  I then removed the thick stencil and put the thin stencil over it.  I used the stamps from the 

Cowgirl and Cowboy stamp set to stamp over the pink buffalo.  I added mats and adhered them to the card base to complete my card.


I basically did the same thing on this card, I just chose different papers and stamps.


I hope you enjoyed your visit with me today.  I am happy you stopped by.  Have a good week.
