Naughty Kitty

Howdy - MichelleO here today with another fabulous new image from High Hopes Stamps... just loving how adorable this Naughty Kitty is!

I colored with Copics - (colors below) and then added some Viva Decor Sparkle to Kitty's Hat. I don't think this guy was meaning to be naughty at all... just a little playful? I found an old scrap of Making Memories pattern paper, love the winter sweater pattern. I matted with black card stock and sewed down the layers with a zig zag stitch and straight stitch. And put on a white card stock base. Then the fun new sentiment from High Hopes "Naughty List?" ... I think not, this guy is just cute!

Penguin Pyramid from High Hopes Stamps

Hello, crafty friends!

I'm here with you today with a card I make using "Penguin Pyramid" and "Happy Holidays" both stamps from HHS "New Christmas Release"

I just LOVE this image and was so excited to make a Christmas card!!!

  

I started off by stamping the penguins and colored with alcohol markers. The pattern paper is ""Christmas Plaids" from Craftsmart  To embellish my card I used stickles, glossy accent, white & gold gelly pen, twine and red button. I used several dies from my stash for the main panel.

Image is colored with Copics;
RED'S R24 R27 R29 R39
ORANGE'S YR02 YR04 YR07 YG09
GREEN'S YG09 YG11 YG13
COOL GRAY'S C5 C7  WARM GRAY'S W1 W3 W5
BG10 & 0

Here is a the inside!

The sentiment is stamped in Memento black ink and die cut it with the second smallest stitched oval die from MFT. Also I used the same paper from the front of my card. Thanks for taking the time to by blog today.

Brewin' Up Some Treats!

Happy Tuesday HH Fans!

All month long the High Hopes Design Team has been creating cards using "Halloween" as the theme! This is my last "Halloween" card for the month of September. I'm using the adorable "Froggy Cauldron" from High Hopes Rubber Stamps. I love his expression, it's like he's saying "Oh no, what have I gotten myself into?".

For this card I decided to use paper from the American Crafts Bootiful Night 6x6 collection. I coloured my image with my Copics and then fussy cut him out. Using the Gina Marie Halloween Scene die, I cut it out using black cardstock and popped it up over the ghost paper with foam tape. I cut out the Halloween embellishments from the set and also from the YNS Happy Haunting dies in different colours. I cut each die cut 3x and glued them together so they had some dimension to them. I added "Froggy Cauldron" with some foam squares and decorated the "brew" with some Stickles. I also added some glitter pen to the flames but it's hard to see in the picture.

I used the same die and papers on the inside. I thought the HH "Brewin' Treats" sentiment matched perfectly with the "Froggy Cauldron".

Copics Used:

Froggy: Yg21, YG23, YG25, YG17

Brew: FV2, BV08

Fire: E23, E25, E27, Y15, YR15, YR18

Cauldron: T5, T6, T7

If you haven't been following the High Hopes Design Team this month then you really need to head on over to the Blog and see all the awesome Halloween themed cards!

Happy Stamping!

Boo Crew in Frame

Howdy - MichelleO here today - This week for High Hopes Stamps I have "BOO Crew in Frame" Just the perfect amount of scary cute for Halloween!

I colored with Copics (colors below) Then I found some papers from Cloud 9 that have that Boo factor to them. Love the witches hats and candy corn... and they have a bit of sparkle to them. Love that. Black and Purple card stock match up well. All they layers are sewn down. For the Sentiment I used the High Hopes "Happy Halloween" with a EK Success Punch as the mat behind. A few Dots of Nuvo Black as little faux brads.

Love cute Halloween... LOL

Copic colors used - And sorry something was off I guess and it is a little blury.. oops.

Halloween Treats...(No Tricks)

Hello Everyone!

I have a fun project for you today and I hope you enjoy it just as much as I do.

It's clear that a few of us on the High Hopes Design Team have been inspired this month by Peeking Froggy. I'm not the first one to share my inspiration with this stamp this month, but hopefully I offer a slightly different view.

When I first saw the image, I thought it would be perfect for a holiday bookmark. But then I thought that it would also make a great chocolate bar wrapper. What to do??? In the end, I did both!!!

I chose to make a match set, so I started by coloring up my image three times. The bookmark is separate from the card and will probably soon occupy the book of a certain 2nd grader in my life.

The chocolate bar wrapper is a basic wrap. Because of the size of the bar, I made the bottom a "box" type closure. The chocolate bar just slides in, which means I can use it again (you know, just in case that bar "disappears" somewhere). I love this great candy corn paper with that image!

The card is hiding behind the bookmark and chocolate, so here is a close up of it. The purple colors in this are perfect! I don't often do Halloween cards, but Mr. Froggy here may change my mind! He's so much fun. The sentiment used on the front of my card is Special Treat.

I hope you enjoyed this fun project today! If you've been to the blog recently, you'll notice that we've got a New Release coming! Check out all the great new holiday images on September 26th.

Looking for more inspiration? You'll find us daily on the High Hopes blog, but you can also find us on Facebook, or follow us on Twitter, Instagram or Pinterest.

Have a perfectly lovely Sunday and we'll see you again next week!!

Boo-tiful Day

Poor Witchy Poo seems a little surprised by the guest who has dropped in to see her! Spiders aren't necessarily my favourite but my heart would definitely skip a beat if one just dropped down beside me like this! 
At least this cute spider is here to wish Witchy Poo and you a boo-tiful day! 

 This week I stuck with the traditional Halloween colours of orange and black except for Witchy Poo's fun hair and coloured her up with alcohol markers. 
I mixed patterned paper from Recollections and Authentique to create my card base. 
Next I cut a thin "frame" using a square die and edged it and all of the paper edges with black ink. The spider web and spider are from a fun happy haunting set and I added a twine bow to the web just for fun. The sentiment is  cut out using a fishtail banner die and the card is finished off with my favourite - gumdrops. 

Card Recipe 

Stamp: Standing Witchy Poo  - High Hopes Rubber Stamps

Sentiment: Boo-tiful Day  - High Hopes Rubber Stamps

Patterned Paper: Authentique, Recollections

Tuxedo Black Memento ink, Hammermill digital cover stock, twine, fishtail banner - YNS, classic square die - Spellbinders, spider and web - YNS, gumdrops - YNS
