Happy Summer Days -- for Great Impressions Stamps

Greetings, fellow stamp lovers!  It's June, and we have finally hit 80 degrees here where I live.  We hit 70 one day and 80 the next, then crashed back into the 60's.  I hope that wasn't summer, LOL!  

There's a new challenge starting today over on the Great Impressions Stamps blog.  With Father's Day this month, the theme is 'masculine'.  I made this card with my dog-loving husband in mind:

This card uses two rubber stamps from Great Impressions Stamps.  They are: E896 Dog Wearing Sunglasses and B213 Happy Summer Days.

I colored E896 Dog Wearing Sunglasses with Copic markers, then fussy cut it out. 

The paw border card was cut out on my Silhouette Cameo with a file I altered, found in the Silhouette Design Store.  The plaid designer paper is from Lawn Fawn. Dies are from Spellbinders. 

The masculine challenge at Great Impressions Stamps blog runs all month.  We've got great prizes, so I sure hope you join us!  I'd love to see what you make, and I sure hope you use a Great Impressions Stamps image. 

Shoes Changed My Life -- for Great Impressions Stamps

Hello, fellow crafters and stamp lovers!  Today starts a new month-long challenge at Great Impressions Stamps.  This month's theme is: Feminine.  

I have 2 very fun, coordinating stamps from Great Impressions Stamps that I used for this month's challenge.  They are Butterfly Shoe rubber stamp (F523) & Changed My Life rubber stamp (D441).  Here's what I created:

Isn't that fun?!?  I heat embossed the Butterfly Shoe stamp (F523), then stamped the oh-so-fun sentiment (Changed my Life - D441) on a heart-shaped die cut.  

I found the heart paper in my stash.  The scalloped die cut behind the shoe is from Lawn Fawn. 

I hope you can join us this month at Great Impressions Stamps for our 'Feminine' challenge.   Use Great Impressions Stamps if you have them, and double your chance of winning a prize!
