Retro Rubber Stamped Cards by Sarah!

Check out these oldies, but goodies by Sarah Moore! She made these cards for us a few years ago, and I thought they needed to resurface!

Sarah used our retro cherries, neat phrase and saddle shoe rubber stamps on this first card. Easy ribbon weaved through layers of cut squares makes it fancy!

On this one Sarah used our hot dog kid and our far out phrase rubber stamps. Reminds me of the circus. :)Strips of cut paper punched with tiny holes, hole punched stars and a peekaboo hole for the phrase makes this card complete. These easy tips help make something so simple look sooooo cool!

Make up a quick 10 minute card for your bff today!

Peacock inspired Card Challenge - Rubber Stamping FUN!

Hey everyone!

Here is an awesome card challenge posted by the talented Kim Wilson, who made the owl card below.

Click here to see Kim's blog, and the prizes etc! (Rubber Stamps from US!)

Join in the FUN!!!

"Its challenge time! This weeks challenge is sponsored by Sideshow Stamps! Our inspiration this week is a little different than usual, I took these photos at a local large cat rescue, they have these amazing peacocks just walking free around the grounds! Isnt this one amazing! I was so inspired by the colors I had to do a challenge with them. Now, I know what you are thinking, owls arent blue, well, I didnt have a peacock stamp and I really wanted to use the turquoise and lime so blue owls it is :) Our challenge colors are turquoise, lime and black, if you want to add in the other blues and greens of the peacock that is fine too but has to have those three! Heres the rules, if you would like to enter please become a follower of my blog, please post the inspiration photo and the link back here, only one entry per person and please make something with as close to the challenge colors as possible because if it is something that doesnt go with the theme, the post is old or the link takes me to something totally different it wont count! Also, all of my challenges are chosen at random, it is far too hard for me to pick a winner so everyone has a fair chance! Now that all the details are handled, are you ready for the prize? "

Customer Cards Galore!!

Here are some absolutely beautiful customer cards that have been sent to us.

This first fabulous set of cards is from Laura O'Donnell. Check out her blog at http://itsallrosie.blogspot.com/

Isn't this a great idea for a Christmas Money Card? (Imagine using Christmas Stamps of your choice.)

""Sweet" money holder card uses Cherry and Orange Slice. The big S/sweet is a rub-on made by Art Warehouse and behind the little paper bag are Doodlebug Frills."

"King of the Road uses the Gas Pump which is colored with Koh-i-Noor pencils and blended with OMS, then cut out and adhered with pop dots. The license plate paper is made by Tim Holtz and the rub-on letters are the Making Memories small Providence font."


"I used your "fawn" and "cherry pair" stamps. The cherries are stamped in red on natural white cardstock, which is mounted on seafoam green (such a 50's combo, cherries and seafoam green!) and then mounted on a black 5x5 card. The fawn is colored with a light pink colored pencil, then blended with OMS. I cut her out and attached her to the face of the card with low rise pop dots. The "diva" bling letter stickers are made by DCWV."



And here's another fantastic set of cards by Rina Koibuchi. Check out her blog at http://rinastampa53.blogspot.com/

She used our Ice Cream Cone, Dragonfly and Butterfly rubber stamps.

"I made background using alcohol inks on glossy paper. Stamps: Circus Poster(Sideshow Stamps)"

"Coloring with copic markers. Stamps: Hep cat(Sideshow Stamps), chicks dig me(OBP)"


And here's a beautiful set of ATC's by Emi Matsuoka.

She used our Pop Art Owls on this ATC.
