Faux Denim Cowgirl Giveway!

This is the final week of sponsoring month of the  Gingersnap Creations Blog. Our Cowboys and Cowgirls theme ends with the color theme of Denim, Dust and Rust -- and what better way to celebrate a fun month than to giveaway some terrific stamps?  

I have this HUGE 8-1/2" x 11" Cowgirl Blues Rubber Stamp sheet from Oxford Impressions. I love this sheet and use mine over and over -- it is jam-packed with 27 cowgirl-themed stamps. And with Memorial Day this weekend, what is more American than Cowfolk?  In any case, here is the stamp sheet:
And of course, the card comes with it...featuring the Faux Denim Technique from the December 2007 issue of the Technique Junkie Newsletter. Make sure you visit the Gingersnap blog for more of the TJ Design Team artwork -- we had fun with this one!

Entering this giveaway is simple. Leave a comment for me on this blog post with your name and email address, and my handy-dandy random number generator will select a winner on Tuesday, May 31st. Anyone can enter! Good luck!

Congratulations to Becky Benson, the winner of this Stamp set and Card!

Saddle up, partner!

The month of May brings big things...first, the Technique Junkie Newsletter is sponsoring the Gingersnap Creations Cowgirls and Cowboys Challenge this month. If you have not frequented the blog, go take a look -- we are sponsoring prizes all month there! One of the items we are giving away is the Emboss or Die CD. The card above uses the Faux Tooled Leather Technique from the CD. Other techniques used include the Out of the Box technique from October 2004 and the Torn Frames Technique from December 2008.  Stamps from Oxford Impressions.

The other Big Thing -- and this is a BIG THING -- is a new announcement I will be making on Saturday. Let's just say that making this announcement on National Scrapbooking Day is not a coincidence! You may have noticed that I have been a bit MIA for a while -- especially these past few months. You will know why on Saturday!

So Saddle up, partner! Take a look at the Gingersnap Creations blog (today features the work of some of the TJ designers!) and get ready for Saturday's big news.

Wonderful Wednesday Giveaway -- Oxford Impressions



Today's Wonderful Wednesday giveaway offers one of my favorite stamp sheets to work with. These Country Girl stamps from Oxford Impressions are great whether you are creating a collages or using individual images, as I did with these two pieces. These two cards were made using the Metallic Stone Background -- one of the ten Bonus Techniques from the new Technique Junkies 6th Edition CD. If you are a regular on my blog, you know that normally I only have one card to give away with the stamps...today is a bit different.
I have two cards here. The winner of this giveaway will receive the stamps below, plus their choice of cards...

The second card will be given away to one of the people who order this week from Oxford Impressions. To make it easy for you, you can take 20% off all unmounted stamp plates and collage sheets through Sept. 10th. Simply use the discount coupon code: pat20good to receive your discount.

Suzanne will also send a free Halloween inchie circle collage sheet - a $4.00 value - to anyone who uses the discount code. After September 10th, the card will be mailed to one of the people who orders Oxford Impressions (drawn randomly).

Did you know that Oxford Impressions was just featured by Stampington's Take Ten Magazine? How awesome is that?

Technique Blitz, TSSC and Blogger's Challenge!


Today is a "three-fer". As in, three things in one. Well, in two, actually! Aw heck, let me explain. Here is how I get three from all this...

First, the sketch used here was the Technostamper Sketch Challenge 29 from Monday -- which I am just a few days late on...


Second, today's Blogger's Challenge (59) is called "the same, but different" -- were we challenged with using a sketch of our choice to make two different cards with two diverse colors and stamps. I used MJ's sketch!

Finally, We are in the midst of a "Technique Blitz", so both of today's cards use techniques from the August 2008 issue of the TJ Newsletter. The first card, top, uses the Stenciled Collage Technique (8-08 TJNL) done on a Faux Denim Background (12-07 TJ). The stamps used here are from Oxford Impressions. I used an open-lined stamp over the stenciled area, and just lightly colored it in with colored pencils. I have a friend who loves horses, you see...

The second card, on the left, uses the Bandanna Technique from the 8-08 TJNL. These stamps are from Innovative Stamp Creations. Just love this stamp with that technique!

Okay, 'nuff for today... Check out the other Blogger's Challenge players by clicking on the logo in my sidebar. Have fun browsing!
