Happy Anniversary, ATS!

With April comes the first anniversary of All That Scraps and to celebrate, C.C. Designs is releasing five new stamp sets and a background!  They will be available Friday, April 4th, but Christine is previewing them, one set a day prior to the release.  With each preview, there’s a give-away of the stamp set and a couple of fun accessories! Check it out on the ATS blog!

Handyman Jack

Here I used the first of one of C.C. Designs’ newest lines, Jack of All Trades.  This is Handyman Jack.  He hangs with Queenie who you will meet in just a little bit.  I stamped him onto new C.C. Designs 140 lb. white cardstock… fabulous for use with Copic markers and a nice heavy weight to use as a card base.  When trimming the image, I let his hammer hang a bit over the edge (just because I like to do that).  I pieced the sentiment together by combining the words from this set and another of the new releases, Hey Chicky.  (I’ll  have samples of that set soon.)

The stripes on the caramel cardstock are another of C.C. Designs’ newest releases, a Stripes Big Ol’ Background.  I only stamped it once, but if you turned the cardstock and stamped a second time, you’d have a plaid, or you could stamp onto a lighter cardstock and color in your own stripes.

Cardstock:  SU Night of Navy, Creamy Caramel, C.C. Designs (white)   Patterned Paper:  Pebbles, Inc. “Boys Only Stripes”   Stamps:  C.C. Designs “Handyman Jack,” “Hey Chicky” and “Stripes” Big Ol’ Background  Ink:  Brilliance Graphite Black, SU Night of Navy   Accessories: Copic markers, Karen Foster screw brads.  Card size: 4 ¼” x 5 ½”.

Cleaning Queenie

This is Queenie.  She doesn’t like to clean, and on the inside of the card there is one word that describes cleaning.  (I think we all know what that is.)

I colored her too with Copics.  Actually, her shirt and pants are not as bright as they appear here.  They’re only slightly darker than the colors in the patterned paper.  (My camera is doing strange things lately.  I need to figure it out.)   And speaking of the patterned paper, it’s new by SEI called Chick-A-Dee.  Then there’s blue Chick-A-Doo.   It’s SO cute!   (I was sure to place my order yesterday before you guys buy it all!)

I’ll have more new samples soon.  Thanks for stopping by!
