Poppin' by to say...

Hello, Pretty Cute Stamp fans! We have been experiencing some heavy rain and flooding here in Texas. Perfect weather to stay inside and work in the craft room!

Today I am working with the super adorable Snack Time stamp set.
 
 

 
I grabbed a few prints from a 6x6 paper pad and used a few to cover the front of an A2 card base. I used a circle die to cut a circle out of white cardstock. I used the popcorn images from the Snack Time stamp set and stamped them randomly onto the circle. I also stamped the bucket of popcorn and colored it in with markers. The image is cut out and attached to the card using a foam dot. A sentiment is stamped onto a strip of cardstock and attached to the card. To finish the sentiment, I used foam alpha stickers.

You're My Best Bud

Hello, Pretty Cute Stamp fans! I cannot believe that it is Thursday already? Where is this week going? I know that I have been outside more enjoying the Spring weather, have you?

I am working with the adorable Spring Flowers stamp set.
 

 
I used an stitched die to create the rectangle. On the rectangle, I stamped the scene using a flower, grass, and butterfly images from the Spring Flowers stamp set. I colored in the scene using Chameleon markers. The rectangle is attached to the middle of a card base. The simple sentiment is stamped at the bottom of the card.

Hello, Spring!!!

Hello, Pretty Cute Stamp fans! Hope you are having a fabulous week! I am excited to share my project with you today!

I am working with the adorable Spring Flowers stamp set.
 
 
When I came up with the plan for this card, I envisioned a few flowers around the bottom corner. I stamped a few of the flowers with white ink and added white embossing powder. With the heat gun, I heated the powder until it melted. I used a variety of ZIG markers to color in the images. A simple sentiment is stamped. The panel is attached to a bright cardstock and attached to the card base.
 
As I am here typing this post, I look at the card and am thinking I might go back and add a few more images. Possibly covering the entire front.

The rainbow is colored in and attach to the card. I stamped the image again on a scrap piece of paper and cute out the clouds. The extra clouds are attached to the rainbow using foam dots.

From Our Gnome to Yours

Hello, Pretty Cute Stamp fans! Hope you are having a fabulous week! I am excited to share my project with you today!

I am working with the super fun Gnomies stamp set!
 
 
 
 Last month I was lucky enough to win a set of ZIG markers. I am finally breaking them out and giving them a try! So, my first step to create this card was to stamp the images in a light ink color. The next step was to start coloring the images in with the different ZIG markers. Once the paint dried, I rounded the corners and added a few cloud diecuts. The girl gnome is cut out and attached to the scene. A simple sentiment is stamped onto the larger cloud.

One of my resolutions for the new year is to use the supplies that I have. So I found some scrap paper and decided to create a boy's birthday card with it. I brought out the fun BOTday stamp set and stamped one of the robot images onto white cardstock. The image is colored in using some colors from the printed papers. The robot is added to the card and the fun sentiment is stamped on the bottom of the card.

Paper-piecing with Thanksgiving Eats

Hello, Pretty Cute Stamps friends! Who else is ready for fall? I know that it is around the corner. I cannot wait for the weather. And most of all the food!
For today's card, I am using the new Thanksgiving Eats stamp set.
Thanksgiving Eats
I love the cute food images in this set. Perfect for coloring and even more perfect for paper-piecing!

Sometimes I have a hard time determining if certain prints go together with each other. So to make that task easier, I love using 6x6 paper pads.  To paper-piece the images, I started off stamping the images on several different prints. Once all the images are cut out, it is time to assemble the images together using the different prints. 

Did you see the new Pretty Cute Stamps Challenge? This month's challenge is to 'Include a Button'. Check out the details, HERE!

Oh, Knit! I Forgot!


Hello, stamping friends! This is my first post for the Pretty Cute Stamps design team! I am excited to be a part of this team and look forward to being inspired by the other design team members, as well as all of you! 
 
Let me first start off with introducing myself. My name is Jessica Pascarella. I am a stay at home mom of 3, my youngest just started Kindergarten last week. My normal go-to style is CAS (Clean and Simple), however, I also like to change it up and try new styles. I consider myself a beginner when it comes to coloring in images, but I am trying to improve my coloring skills. My favorite stamping technique is paper-piecing. You can see my designs on my blog, Kissin' Krafts.
 
Today for my first Pretty Cute Stamps projects, I am working with the Knit Happens stamp set. I adore the fun sentiments included in this set!
 
Knit Happens Stamp Set
 
My CAS card includes stamped images that I colored in with a variety of markers.

 
 
 
 
After the stamped images are colored, I cut them out by hand. I added a gingham print on the bottom of the card. The stamped images are added to the card. To finish the card, the simple sentiment is stamped in black ink. And there you have it! A very simple card to create!
