Proof of Stamping

I have been crazy busy stamping... I would LOVE to share a bit of what I have been working on... but I can't! You will just have to wait... but I do have some justjohanna cards I can now show you. These are cards I created for my Design Team commitment... I made these last month. I am really enjoying my DT work... but boy does it keep you busy!

Stay tuned... I hope to post a TON of cards for you this week to make up for my slackness.

All Stamps are by justjohanna.

I made this bee hive with the Window word punch by SU! Oh what would I do without my window word punch... Sponging with basic brown around the edges of the hive pieces make it pop. Papers are Bravo Burgundy, Very Vanilla and the Playhouse series by SU! Ink is Basic Brown and More Mustard Marker. Mustard Grosgrain and a brass spiral clip (from Target) complete the card.


This is a simple card. I just love this stand and the matching cage... it's two stamps. And this sweet little bird flying the coop! All in Black Staz-on with Cool Caribbean used to watercolor the bird and feathers. The bird is cut out and popped up with a dimensional. Pixie Pink and Basic Black frame the card.


This is a 3X3 notecard in Pretty in Pink and Designer Prints papers in Celery by SU! The little black metal frame is from Joanne Crafts... I think it was from their own line. A stitched ribbon in celery tops the frame. This little birdie is watercolored with So Saffron.
