Good morning, MME fans! Today Danni and Suzanne are here to share some new and fresh stamping ideas with you. Enjoy!

Hello! Danni here with you today to share three cards, using three different stamping techniques and one stamp set. I have included a tutorial for the masking technique on my "Admit One" card.
Supplies:Collectable: 6 x 6 Collectable paper pad, Collectable "Hello" Decorative stamps, Collectable Wonder decorative brads, Collectable chipboard shapes, Collectable "Firsts" enamel dots;MISC: machine stitching, Bazzill card stock, Papertrey ink
I absolutely adore the butterflies in the Collectable "Hello" stamp set and wanted to have them as a focal on one of the cards.
On my second card, "Heart You", I decided to focus on the trendy "stamping tilt" that is so popular right now.
Supplies:Collectable:6 x 6 Collectable paper pad, Collectable
"Hello" Decorative stamps, Collectable chipboard shapes, Collectable
"Cute" enamel dots; MISC: Bazzill card stock,, Jenni Bowlin ink, Papertrey Ink
I thought it would be fun to have a monochromatic sentiment and embellish with color, from the Collectable "Love This" chipboard.
On my last card, "Hello", I wanted to play with the gorgeous doily and embossing.
Supplies:Six by Six 2:"A Mother's Love" Paper Pad,
Collectable: "Hello" decorative stamps, Collectable chipboard shapes,
Collectable "Cute" enamel dots, Collectable "Wonder" Decorative brads;MISC: Bazzill card stock, Papertrey ink, embossing powders, machine stitching
I chose to use the Six by Six 2 "A Mother's Love" pad of
paper. I love every single pattern in this pad and the grey woodgrain
was perfect to stamp.emboss my doilies.
These stamps are gorgeous and so much fun to play with. I hope if
you ink yours up, you'll link us up in the comments section!★★★★★
Good morning everyone! This is Suzanne and I'm so excited to share my new creation with you!

I love creating small home decor items, especially using canvas as
my background. This time I wanted to create a mixed media sort of piece
to display in my work space. I pulled bits & pieces from the
Collectable collection, and laid out several stamps
in front of me. I decided to also get a bit artsy on this project, and
pulled in the Faber Castel gelatos on this project, too.
I first used the Story Card as the main embellishment on this canvas. I added stamping detail using two different stamps. You can see the numbers, and the ruler inked. The card looked great alone, but love the custom card I created in the end with simple inking.
I stitched across the top of the card, and added a tiny word
sticker underneath.. Now, one thing I did learn after
playing with this canvas was that stamping directly onto it, is not quite as
easy as it seems. I learned that you need to stamp the
image onto tissue paper, and then with the proper adhesive add it onto
the canvas.
I will admit...it took many errors before I realized I was missing a step! I added the chevron image to the top and bottom of the canvas. One last detail was that I also stamped the sentiment in the lower right hand corner. All of these images were stamped with Stazon, and onto tissue paper.
The final details is the
punched flower, and the butterflies onto the tag. Again these
butterflies are all ink, and I cut around them to add
to the canvas. My last attempt was using the gelatos to add more
texture. This was my first attempt at a mixed media project, and with
more practice I cannot wait to see the possibilities!
A little stamps, and some paint can combine to make a unique piece of art you will treasure!
