As with most things in my life, I’m a day late with my A Muse Bouche offerings this week but I was totally inspired last night after seeing all the other Muses work their magic with the wonderful Special Edition Vintage Stamp set. It’s been a tumultuous week, preparing for the Wedding show last Sunday at the Delta, and now getting ready for The Paperie’s BIG Scrapbooking Retreat at the Wilds in Salmonier this weekend.
Here’s a mini 3×3 card I made which was completely copied from Heather Meeson – I gasped out loud when I saw her card yesterday. Being such a music junkie, y’know I had to break out my Rock star stamp and make my own version of Heather’s card…
The rest of my cards are 4.25×4.25 – with all the new 8.5×11 paper from A Muse, I love being able to make this size card again! For the next card, I had to use my favourite stamp from the vintage release, the Tire Swing. I paired it with my all-time favourite stamp, the Big BL – you MUST go buy this rectangle background stamp before it’s too late – I’d hate to see you snooze and lose 😉 The sentiment on this card actually comes all on one line, but I cut it up so I could easily stagger it. I do this with 75% of my acrylic sentiment stamps – gotta love versatility. I used my scor-pal to create an “embossed” border to add a little extra interest to this card.
Finally, I could NOT resist the Dragon and matching sentiment – hilarious! I love that A Muse paired brand new sentiments with all of the retired stamps for this Vintage release. Again, I used my Scor-Pal and the Scor-bug to create a bit more interest – this technique was inspired by Emily’s Card yesterday.
