You Make My Heart Sing! - Kitchen Sink Stamps

Many of you may not know this, but I am a huge country music fan. I am currently waiting anxiously for Amazon to deliver Luke Combs' new album, Fathers and Sons to my doorstep. Until then I will be listening to it on You Tube! With my husband's birthday coming this week, most of the songs on the album hold a great deal of meaning for me! I will be shedding many bittersweet tears!

So with country music as my inspiration this week, I have created this  5 x 7 design using images from:

Cowboy Boots

Cowboy Hat - retired

Guitar

Trees

Grazing Horse



I have entered this card in the following challenges this week:

Have a Fintastic Father's Day - KSS

I had a lot of fun with this week's Kitchen Sink Stamps sponsored design. I have created a Father's Day card using images from Cowboy Boots, Trout Fishing, Deep Sea MarlinIsle of Big Bay Lake, Honey Bunny, and Bold Holiday Greetings.

I used a scrap of designer paper to create the jeans to poke into the boots to create this cowboy fisherman on the river banks. The cloudy sky was created using the SVG cut stencil Cloudy Skies also from KSS.


Color Recipe for the Boots using Stampin' Up Inks

Layer 1 Creamy Caramel
Layer 2 Creamy Caramel
Layer 3 Chocolate Chip
Layer 4 Early Espresso


Color Recipe for Trout using Stampin' Up Inks

Layer 1 Soft Sea Foam with Powder Pink in center
Layer 2 Soft Sea Foam
Layer 3 Lemon Lime Twist
Layer 4 Granny Apple Green

Pull Out Your Boots - Here Comes Beta!

Although fall is arriving this week, hurricane season is still going strong. Here on the Texas Gulf Coast we are preparing for the landfall of Tropical Storm Beta later today.

For today's Kitchen Sink Stamps sponsored design, I thought it appropriate to pull out their Cowboy Boots since I may need mine to wade through the waters that should be drenching us throughout the day. I hope I don't have to chase my garbage can down the street.

Texas Father's Day - KSS

I have been making a real effort of late to get my act together and be ready for things well ahead of time for a change. One of my huge character flaws is my tendency to procrastinate which can be a real problem when unexpected  events get thrown into the mix. And around my house, unexpected is often the word of the day!

Therefore, today's card sponsored by Kitchen Sink Stamps is my Father's Day card, and it is ready for that big celebration a full month early. Fortunately for me, I have also recently organized all of my completed cards into theme bins and will file this card immediately into "Special Days" so I won't lose it before the day arrives!!

The Kitchen Sink stamp sets I have featured are:

Fun Fold #4 - Kitchen Sink Stamps

Fun Fold #4 sponsored by Kitchen Sink Stamps is the design I am sharing with you on this first Monday of March! There are three simple pieces that create this fun and easy slider card. They include a 5.5 inches x 8.5 inches piece of cardstock scored at 4.25 inches with a 3 inch square die cut on the front panel. A stripe of white cardstock cut 4.25 x 7.5 and scored at 2.5 and 5 is needed for the inside of the card. The final piece is the 3 inch square that fits in the front of the card.

The photos below demonstrate how the card is assembled. These are the three stamped pieces needed to create the card.



The inside panel is attached to the inside of the card with my tape runner used on the back of the third portion of the scored and folded panel.



With the card closed, red line tape is placed as shown below for attaching the boots in the front opening of the card.

I used stamps from the following sets by Kitchen Sink Stamps for today's fun fold design:

KSS 10MC84 Birthday Cards for Guys

This week I have created 10 minute birthday cards for the guys in my life using images from Kitchen Sink Stamps. Yesterday while visiting Tuesday Morning I ran into a card maker's dream. They were selling 24 sheet packets of Graphics 45 designer paper for $3.99. The quality is excellent and although all 24 sheets are the same design, they are double-sided designs. I bought one of every style they had. The color palette in many of them is perfect for masculine cards.

Dare to Get Dirty Week Begins Today at SCS!

The first challenge I have entered in the Dare to Get Dirty Challenge at SCS requires that paint be used on the project. This image by Hampton Arts was painted with SU Watercolor Wonder Crayons. The sentiment is from Big Wish by Verve.


 The second one required the use of kraft paper. The images are from Cowboy Hat Multi Step Clear Stamps, Cowboy Boots Multi Step Clear Stamps, and Simple Sentiments Clear Stamps by Kitchen Sink Stamps.

 And this one required fruit or vegetables. I mixed Berries Multi Step Clear Stamps and Seed Packet Clear Stamps from Kitchen Sink Stamps!

 For the Anything But a Card challenge, I used scraps of designer paper to create this bow and gift tag.

Kitchen Sink Stamps 10 Minute Card Challenge 22

On a usual Kitchen Sink Monday I will post 4 samples for the weekly 10 Minute Card Challenge. There is a reason I post 4 samples instead of 1 - guilt! The rest of the members of the Kitchen Sink Crew each post a beautiful creation they have spent a lot of time designing and executing while I am posting a card that takes ten minutes to build! It just doesn't seem right to me! Since it normally takes me an average of 40 minutes to create a pretty layered card with embellishments, I make four 10 minute cards. Seems only fair to me!

Well, today when I got started on 10 Minute Card Challenge #22, I was having so much fun sorting through my designer paper scraps and matching them to my Kitchen Sink Stamps that I just couldn't stop! So this week you are getting 7 samples!!

For the challenge I cut three squares of designer paper (1.75 inches square) for each card. I then glued them to the card front in a windowpane pattern and stamped a Kitchen Sink image in the place where the fourth windowpane would be. I finished each card with a fun sentiment! I hope this will be something you find useful for creating quick and simple cards with your KSS images. If you would like to share your card for the challenge in the Kitchen Sink Gallery, be sure to include keyword 10MC22.
