Stampers With An Attitude New Product Blog Hop!

Welcome to Becky's Studio! And Welcome to the Stampers with an Attitude Blog Hop! The Stampers with an Attitude are excited to show you some Artwork with an Attitude using product from our new Autumn/Winter Idea Book. So grab your coffee, maybe a cookie or some chocolate, sit back and have a fun journey.

The blogger in front of me is Pamela O'Connor  . Great work Pamela, thank you for sharing your talents. If you got here from her blog, you are on the right track.

We have so many wonderful new products in this Idea Book and I have been having so much fun jumping from one product to another, and one paper pack to another - BUT -

I am totally in love with the new 'Baby Cakes' paper pack (X7073B)! It is so cheerful and fun and so versatile! As you will see, I got a little carried away using it! But I just couldn't help myself.

First of all with the name Baby Cakes it just lends itself to 'Baby' cards! Right? 

I used Baby Cakes polka dot paper on this card along with some embellishments made from our new 'Artbooking' (Z1906) Cricut cartridge. What a fun cartridge!!! Don't you just love that darling Giraffe? So so cute - and can be used for a boy or a girl!

(I know I used a sentiment from and old stamp set, my bad! But it was just perfect for what I needed.) ;~}

But .  .  .

What if you don't have any babies right now to make cards for??

Well .  .  .

Baby Cakes can make adorable birthday cards too!

This birthday card was made using one of the new mini stamps 'A Little Gift' (M1030). Is that just the cutest present?

And, I had to embellish it with the Art Philosophy cartridge that just happens to have a bow that works quite well with it - don't you think? Adding some shiny opaque gems (Z1335) and voila - your done!

And since I just couldn't stop! (I love this paper!)

 I used Baby Cakes this time with the September Stamp of the Month 'Poster Tidings' (S1309) and made a fun 'Fall' card.

I just love how versatile this paper pack is! I'm sure you will find just as many options for this fun paper pack and I hope you have just as much fun using it as I did -

'Show Your Patriatism' Blog Hop

Welcome to the Stampers with an Attitude Blog Hop! We are going to show you some Patriotic Art with an Attitude, so here we go on a 'red, white and blue' journey.

Welcome to Becky's Studio.

If you have come from LaJeania Hicks' - blog, you are on the right track. Doesn't she do beautiful work?

Patriotism is a big part of our life and we are thankful everyday for our country and our freedoms.

God Bless America!

Patriotic art work is great any month of the year - but especially perfect in July, the month of our countries birthday!

I love the flag from our new Patriotic stamp set (it is still available - while supplies lasts until July 31) so I knew I had to use it! And what better for stars than our gorgeous silver glitter paper, and lots of red, white and blue! The Tommy paper pack was used for the banners, and the little stars have our wonderful Prizma Glitter on them to make them stand out.

The next blogger on this hop is another amazing artist Jaime Llewellyn ~ 

I hope you enjoy the rest of your journey through our patriotism!

July Card Club -

Welcome to Becky's Studio ~

Here are the cards we did for card clubs this week!

Summer is definitely upon us right now so I just had to make some cards with our fun 'Tommy' paper pack all red, white, blue and yellow!

And the 'Surfs Up' paper pack with a beach theme.

The card on the left is made with a fun fabric flower for weddings that are going on all summer long.
And last but not least my friend Karen showed us this fun quick technique at our last meeting, and I just had to share it! So fun! Besides, one can never have too many thank you cards around, don't you think?

I hope you like them, they were fun to make.

Julie's Graduation pix

I know you are going to find this crazy! I actually already found Julie's graduation pictures!!! My camera at the time was horrible - but the pictures are priceless! And mostly I can tell it's my beautiful daughter! Only a few pix so only a one page layout! Keeping in the same green and blue theme (nothing with their school colors at all), this page will coordinate with Brian and Susan's pages.

Monthly Card Clubs

After a month off from my Card Clubs - it was great to see everyone! A few ladies were not able to make it - but - we had fun none the less, and we missed them all terribly!

The cards were a little time intensive this month (hey!!! I did give them a month off :~})!!! But they were fun and they all turned out lovely. And they learned a new technique too!


Here is a picture of the cards we made. They were all very simple cards to make with lots of coloring.
One of the ladies mentioned that we were like a group of kids - 'hand us color crayon and we stop talking' - so funny, but we did seem to get very quiet while doing our coloring. But that's what made it fun too!

The patriotic card is our new stamp set 'Land of the Free' - a portion of the sale of this stamp set goes to the USO - how cool is that. And it's also the card with the new technique!
The stars on the left side of the card were made by inking an embossing folder and running it through the cuttlebug!  Pretty cool isn't it?   Love love love that technique!

I would love to show you how to do this technique the easiest way! You will love it.

Can you see the sparkle of the fireworks???



Happy Flag Day!!

June Stamp of the Month

I absolutely fell in love with this stamp set! The flowers can be made just about any color you want - just use your imagination. These flowers were embossed with black and I used water color pencils and the water color pen to color them. The two flowers in the back were stamped directly onto the paper, the one in the front was stamped separately, cut out then attached with foam dots to make it 3d (which is kind of hard to see in the picture) 

If you would like to learn how this technique works - I would love to show you how.

FUN IN THE SUN - Blog hop!

Welcome to the Stampers with an Attitude Blog Hop!  The blogger in front of me is Jen Patrick- http://roxybonds-scrappin.blogspot.com so if you came from her blog you are on the right track.   The Stampers with an Attitude are all excited to show you a little Art with an Attitude, so here we go.

There are so many things that remind me of summer... and since that is the theme of my card clubs this month I just have to share a couple of the cards they will be making! Shame on me but I just couldn't help myself posting two pix.

The first card I made is all about 'Sunshine and Ice Cream'! What is more fun in the sun than that? The sun was made using Art Philosophy's 'star 1' using Honey and Sunny Yellow. The ice cream cone is made using an older stamp set but so much fun! Desert Sand cone, Honey ice cream. The ribbon is CTMH white gross grain stamped with "sunshine" using the "honey" pigment ink - how fun is that?

My second card has very little stamping but has just as much fun in the sun! The Ocean Beach and Spinners. I used Sky for my card base. When you tear the Juniper paper just right it looks like waves on the ocean then tear some Champagne cardstock for the sand. The spinners were made by using two 2 inch squares and one 2 1/4 inch square.

I had a lot of fun making these simple summer cards!

Thanks for stopping by.
