Stampscapes cabin on land

Hi, Vicky here today to share some new Stampscape stamps.

I really like the new stamps from Stampscapes. Kevin has done a lot of great images.
This is his 343I Bayou Shack that would usually be in the water, but I wanted the shack on land. I did keep the cabin on the posts rather than putting it right on the ground. Some cabins in the northern part of our state has cabins on posts.
The hill on the left side is named Rocky Waterside, but it makes a great hill on land also.
That is one thing I really, really like about Kevin's stamps is that you can use his stamps and change them from land to water, or water to land.
I colored the scene with Copic markers, and stamped the clouds with Brilliance ink.
 

Hope you can stop by and take a look at Kevin's new stamps.

Father's Day Grill

Vicky here today. What does your husband like to do on Father's Day?
John likes to grill out. He does the grilling since he doesn't trust me, and I am not sure why since he has never let me, but I haven't really argued to do it either. But he likes to grill and have the kids over.
The apron and the stamp on it are two different stamps. We have 4 stamps for the apron.
These are copied from the wood blocks but you can get them in cling foam here.

Dad Sail Boat

This is another card that Currie made. She colored it with markers and added brads on the top of the sails. The black cardstock is distressed with Tim Holtz tool. Currie also used Distress ink around the edges of the image.
Hope you enjoy the idea.
Thanks for stopping by.

Happy Father's Day Jeep

Vicky here today. But Currie Churchill did the Father's Day card.
She stamped the tires and spark plugs with Distress ink. The background was inked with Distress ink also. Currie colored the brad. I like that the cardstock the image is stamped on is not square, I think it adds interest. Currie also used Distress ink around the edges on the green cardstock with the sentiment.

Stampscapes Buggy Ride

Vicky here today and I wanted to share some more of Stampscapes new stamps.
The barn, fence, stones at left and stone path at the bottom are the new stamps. I added the hill to the right behind the barn. The buggy is from Crackerbox. I colored it with Copic markers.
Here are the stamps I used:



The Soft Hill is one of my favorite stamps
 
 I used this stamp for the trees behind the barn.

Happy Memorial Day

First, thank you to all of the vets for our freedom.
 
 Vicky here today and I hope everyone has a happy and safe Memorial Day.
This is a card I made for my daughter's boyfriend, Matt. He spent 15 months in Iraq. We will be going over to their house for a cookout later today. It's a BYOBM~Bring Your Own Beer & Meat. Here in WI. I do a lot of cookouts while we can. Usually the cookouts are BYOB.
I found this pin in one of my drawers, amazing what I find in there.
This is a custom stamp John made for me for this card for Matt.
If you would like one, just email John at Crackerbox here, or
