Home Sweet Home & Back to School Again!

Hi there, Regan here! This week I have two projects to share with you.

For the first project I created a card using the ATC #1 stamp sheet and inspiration from the challenges at Papercraft Star and I Brake For Challenges.

I used the swirls background stamp from the ATC #1 stamp sheet for the base of the card using River Rock ink by Stampin' Up! to give it a tone on tone look. Come join us at I Brake For Challenges!

For the second project I created a card using a back to school theme and my favorite stamp.... you guessed it, Be My Valentine Girl. I used the same paper to paper piece her dress as I did for the last back to school card but this time I gave her red hair! I went a vintage this time and added some book pages and some stitching.

For more information on these projects, please visit my blog at Emora Designs!

Back to School & Friendship

Hi there, Regan here! I actually have two projects to share with you today! The first is a fun card that I created for the Back to School challenge over at the I Brake For Challenges Blog!

I used my all time favorite stamp, Be My Valentine Girl, along with the number stamp from the ATC #1 stamp sheet to create this card. The pattern papers are from two school stacks by DCWV and the paper for her dress is from the handmade collection by K&Company.

The second project is dedicated to one of my best friends for a challenge at Scrapping Everyday Miracles. I wanted to honor our 20 year friendship by making a layout.

I used the script stamp from the ATC #1 stamp sheet to add some interest to the base of my layout. For more photos and details, please visit my blog EmoraDesigns.

I hope you will play along with us over at I Brake For Challenges!

Cute as a Pumpkin!

Hi There, Regan here! I have a cute Halloween card for you this week featuring one of the stamps from the Costume Bears collection by Rick St. Dennis. This set is so adorable which made it super fun and easy to use!

I used the Pumpkin Costume Bear for this card, isn't he cute!?

Such a super simple and fun card to make! For more details, please visit my blog Emora Designs.

Elegant Baby Cards

Hi all, Regan here! I wanted to share these elegant baby cards I made using the Antique Buggy, Train a Child and Doily stamps. I was inspired to create these cards based on the inspiration photo for challenge 52 at Papercraft Star.

I did some heat embossing, emboss resist and misting to get this look. I really love the way they turned out and I hope you do as well.

MOO-arvelous!

Hi all, Regan here to share a fun and MOO-rrific card with you today!

When I saw the Tina Mae cow stamp, I had to have her! She is too stinkin' cute and with all the stinky cows in our area I knew she would get some stamping time for sure!

Here is my card...

I used the Doily stamp to create my own patterned paper on the base of my card and used Tina Mae as my main image.

Sew Sweet

Hi, Regan here!

I have another fun card to share with you using the Be My Valentine Girl Stamp. This card was created for the Clothing Inspiration challenge using the inspiration photo at the I Brake For Challenges blog.

It was such a fun card to make because I played with so many techniques and textures! I layered, paper pieced, machine stitched and colored! I love the way the card turned out and I hope you do too!

Remember to head over to the I Brake For Challenges blog to find inspiration and take part in our weekly challenges! There may be prizes involved! :)

Birthday Girl & Live 2 Ride

Hi, Regan here! I have two projects to share with you this week!

The first project is a fun and super cute birthday card for that special little girl in your life!
I used the Be My Valentine Girl stamp which is one of my all time favorites!!

I chose to use a sketch this week from Unscripted Sketches.

After some stamping, fussy cutting and paper piecing here is what I came up with....

Isn't it darling!? I just love the way it turned out.

This stamp is so super versatile!

The next project is a masculine layout I created for the Technique Junkies Stampbooking Blog Hop to promote the new Stampbooking CD that I Brake For Stamps is carrying! I used the Numbers Background stamp along with the Fancy Frames tutorial (by our very own Jane Bosi) to create this layout of my Dad.

For more photos and details for both projects, please visit my blog Emora Designs.

I hope you were inspired to take a second look at your stamps today!

Flag Day

Hi all! Today is Flag Day here in the US. If you would like to know more about Flag Day, visit HERE.

In honor of flag day I thought I would create a card using some flag printed paper and the Be My Valentine Girl stamp. Here is what I came up with...

I used some vintage book page to add some fun interest to the card. 

The Be My Valentine Girl stamp is one of my favorite stamps, I have found so many uses for her! Stop back by next Tuesday to see how else you can use this little cutie!

Junk Mini Album

Regan here, so today I have a mini album to share with you... a junk mini if you will. I made this mini album completely out of scraps. I was inspired by Mystele at littleglimpses on YouTube.

To see the complete album in detail see the videos PART 1 and PART 2 on my YouTube channel.

Here are some photos.

I used the Helen Keller stamp on a tag in this album.

Such a Girl Thing!

Hi There, Regan here!! Today I have a fun layout to share with you using the Girl Thing stamp! I can't stop using the boy thing and girl thing stamps, I just love them if you couldn't tell! For this layout I used an 8 1/2 X 11 sketch from the May 2011 PageMaps and adjusted it to work for a 12 X 12 layout

I stamped the girl thing sentiment on a piece of patterned paper and then used a speech bubble Thicker from Tiara Accents as a frame. I think it turned out too cute!

For more photos and details, please visit my blog Emora Designs.

Thank you so much for stopping by! I hope that my layout inspired you to scrap today!

Boy Thing Mini Album

Hi all, Regan here! Today I have a fun project to share with you using the fabulous stamps from I Brake For Stamps! I used the Boy Thing and Numbers Background stamps to make this cute little sports mini album! It would be cute to use the Girl Thing Stamp to create the same project!

I used the Boy Thing stamp on the cover of the mini album as my title.

I used the Numbers Background stamp on the cream page below as well as on the back cover. It worked perfectly with the theme of this album.

I cut images from the collection to use as embellishments as well as some stickers.

I hope you enjoyed my project today. For more photos and details, please visit my blog Emora Designs.

So Sweet!

Hi, Regan here. Today I have an oh so sweet card that I created using the Numbers background stamp. I was inspired by the photo inspiration offered in Challenge 43 at Papercraft Star along with the April 14th Sketch at Sassy Lil Card Sketches.

I used the Numbers Background stamp to create my own heat embossed patterned paper. I used white craft ink and clear embossing powder along with my heat gun to get the look.

Wall Art

Today I have a fun project for you. I just love to re-purpose and recycle things by using them in my projects, it is a ton of fun! For this project, I decided to create a little work of art to hang in my craft room! My re-purposed / recycled element is cardboard.

I made this journal card as an example for my tutorial HERE. On the journal card I used the ruler stamp. I just love this stamp and have used it a ton! It is so versatile!

Happy Birthday!

Hi all, Regan here! I am super excited to share my card with you this week. I am not a fabulous card maker, layouts and mini albums are my thing, but I am proud of this one!

So here we go!

I used the Numbers Background Stamp on the card base and the Be My Valentine Girl stamp as my main image. I did some paper piecing on her dress and bow to add some interest.
