About Me

Hi, my name is Terri. My grandmothers taught me how to crochet and embroider on dish towels when I was a little girl, and that started my love of crafting. Over the years I tried different things but my favorite is still stamping and card making. And what makes it better now is that my 2 sisters like it also!! It's fun when we can get together and make cards!! I love learning new ideas and techniques and give hope to others to step out of their comfort zone and try a few new things. Thanks so much for stopping by....follow along if you'd like and see what we can create!!

MFP Saturday Challenge 37


MFP Saturday Challenge 37 - Twine Wrapped Block

This was another fun challenge!! Following the tutorial, I wrapped my stamping block with a piece of twine, then inked it up and stamped it across my paper.  I first did horizontal stamping, then vertical.
I spritzed fall colors on the paper which I made with re-inkers and water. I dried this piece with my heat gun after spritzing. 

I mounted my background piece on green cardstock, and then mounted a gold colored piece of cardstock onto a black piece which was mounted onto the background piece. I stamped the bear image from Mark's Finest Papers "North American Woods" set onto a green colored piece and die cut
it with a circle die.  I edged it with black ink and popped it up with pop dots.  I then stamped the sentiment (also from MFP Stamp Set "North American Woods") onto the gold-colored cardstock.

Thank you for stopping by!  Please go to Mark's Finest Papers Challenge to see all the great entries in this challenge and then make your card to enter.....it's really fun!  Have a wonderful day!

Thank you to Mark's Finest Papers for choosing my entry as the winner of the Tutorial Challenge.  I earned the "Calendar" stamp set.

  3. Your background looks wonderful. I only wish that I was better (like you) with the reinkers.
