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!

Scenic Stamping - Gingersnap Creations Challenge

As you may know, the Technique Junkie Newsletter is the sponsor for the Gingersnap Creations Blog this month. Today's challenge was to make a card expressing Scenic Stamping. My interpretation of that is above. Of course, I had to morph my card -- I just thought it would look cool if I made it into a Aged Tile (April 2008 Technique Junkie Newsletter) card. Stamps: Cowboy: from the Embossing Arts line at  I Brake for Stamps, Sentiment,  Club Scrap.

Stop over the the Gingersnap Creations blog today to see what others have created!
  One of the greatest things about the new Stampbooking CD is the ability browse through it  to find inspiration for your layouts, then to print out the tutorial (with examples) to take to my scrapping area. I love having these 75 step-by-step ideas at my disposal! The fun part for me in creating this CD was trying as many of the techniques as I could before CD release -- and even now I am still working through them with my current scrapbook projects.

This page was embellished with Flowers made from the Tie-Dye Chic Embellishment technique, one of the 18 Embellishment Tutorials you will find (out of the 75 Tutorials on the CD. Stamps from Judikins and Close To My Heart. I think they add the right splash of color to what could have been a monotone layout.

Painted Pastel Embossed Flower

 I recently acquired this gorgeous embossing folder from Stampin' Up! and it has quickly become one of my favorites. With this card I used the Pastel Painted Embossing Technique from the Technique Junkie Emboss or Die CD to color the embossed area. The stamp along the side is from I Brake for Stamps. The side view is here:


Have a great day!
