A blog hop wouldn’t be complete without an inspiration! Each designer has made a card based on one theme from the class. Here’s a little number from myself, inspired by Graphic and Grunge!


I used a plethora of stamps on this one. I tweaked the Quinn’s ABC’s stamp set from Lawn Fawn a bit by adding depth and definition to the letters with black pen. I stamped Unity Stamps Painted Punchinella in Memento Luxe Dandelion, the triangle pattern from MFT Mod Borders and the bike from Hero Arts Joy Ride in Memento Luxe Teal Zeal, and the sentiment & Altenew Faux Veneers stars in Versafine Onyx Black.


I finished the card with some mist paint splats, an odd strip or two of washi tape, and a little die cut from Studio Calico which I secured with a staple.
I’m entering this card in the Hip On Handwriting Challenge in the Moxie Fab World 🙂


In other news:

- I’m on the WPlus9 blog again today! Here’s a part of what’s on offer… click HERE to see it all!


- Don’t forget that a Hero Arts sponsored challenge just launched at StampNation! It’s a fun sketch and there are prizes for both SN members (HA goodie bags!) and those who haven’t yet joined us but would love to (two StampNation memberships!)

The Design Team got crafty with HA product from their new catalog and the sketch, here’s a peek for you… I already shared a peek of my card yesterday, can you spot it?

On top of that, Catherine did a couple of videos to mark the occasion, one exclusive for SN members and one on her blog, which you can check out HERE. My new video tutorial is up on SN as well. Lots of buzz going on!!

Join StampNation today and never miss any of it!

Big news, everyone!

It’s my THIRD post for the day… I’m not a fan of when it happens but sometimes it can’t be helped - I can only hope that you’ll enjoy the bigger than normal dose of inspiration 🙂
Back to the schedule. I announced earlier today in the Waltzingmouse post, that I’m sadly leaving their ranks. I’m going to miss them *sniff*. However, something cool is on the horizon that’s been secretly brewing behind the scenes… are you curious yet??

As of today, I’m joining StampNation as a Design Team member.

StampNation is an online paper-crafting community teeming with life, complete with forums, gallery, challenges and tons of tutorials at your fingertips. It has more than 1000 members and a strong sense of sisterhood - they surely make you feel right at home 🙂

So what does it bring you, eh? If you join the forum, you’ll not only gain exclusive access to the available tutorials and much more, but I am also starting my very own “Technically Speaking” forum in The Classroom on StampNation, which I’ll be delivering content to on a fortnightly basis. I will also be participating in challenges at SN as a DT member.

But that’s not all yet! I’m a contributor for the Online Classes, another brain-child of the SN founder, starting with the one already released! I joined Catherine Pooler and Maureen Merritt (yes! my CASE Study Teamie) as a teacher and I’ve written two exclusive tutorials teaching you how to make two cards and tag in the Very Trendy Holiday style 🙂

Here’s a peek into what’s waiting there for you:

Catherine, the brainz behind it all, created this short video to promote the event. I don’t even know what to say about it exactly… lol, it’s hilarious! Catherine is a nutcase (although by all positive means) but her speech still leaves me slightly dumbfounded and very humbled. I mean… how did all of that happen??

I would love it if you to embarked on this journey with me, and either signed up with StampNation or took the class… or both! See you there, and make sure you let me know what you think! xx
