So Suzy Stamps Second Anniversary Bash

Welcome to the 2nd Anniversary of So Suzy Stamps Blog Hop! We are so excited to bring you some gorgeous projects featuring the Top 10 So Suzy Stamps of all time! We even made a section on the website where you can find the most popular stamps. If you are coming from Monica's blog, you’re in the right place and if you’re just stopping by you can start here. Don’t forget to leave a comment on each blog to be entered into the many draws for prizes.

I have to tell you, I was both tickled and stumped when I was asked to use the Venetian Mask for the celebration; the mask is the very first So Suzy stamp I ever bought! I used her so much early on that I wanted to do something different for the hop...enter being stumped. What hadn't I done with it yet? Hello partial heat embossing and Nuvo Crystal Glitter Drops!

Thank you MISTI for letting me double-stamp with ease. After stamping the mask in teal, I then went back and added Versamark round the edges. (I mimicked a mask I found on Google; so pretty!) That was heat embossed in gold, then the layers began. Gold metallic and vellum to soften the teal card base, and the same carried thru inside.

I had to use the matching sentiment. I mean, hello! It is pretty wonderful after all.

Supplies used:

Venetian Mask

Love Takes Off the Mask sentiment

Nuvo Gold Embossing Powder

Nuvo Glitter Night Sky Crystal Drops

GIU Day 5 - Bold Blooms

This is my second post today - if you're looking for the So Suzy Stamps April Release post, go here!

Good morning everyone, and welcome to Day 5 of my Growing in Unity week! I'm the Growing in Unity gal this week over on the Unity Stamp Co. blog, which means I'll be sharing a project created with my Unity stamps with you every day. I invite you to come back each day and leave a comment for a chance to be one of the (2) lucky people to win a bag of (25) Unity stamps! Woohoo! If you're new to my blog, I'd love it if you became a follower and join in the fun over on the Caffeinated Papercuts Facebook page or followed Caffeinated Papercuts on Instagram. :)

I cannot believe we're on Day 5 already - last post of my week! Get your comments in by midnight EST TONIGHT, April 1st and I'll be announcing the winners next week. Be sure to stop back and see if it's you!

I went back to the flowers...I HAD to! Sadly I also had to use this card as a dear friend lost her mom recently, but this sure did bring a smile to her face.

I stamped the big bloom in Versafine black, then clear heat embossed it to make it fabulous. Don't be afraid to die cut away part of your image - the results can be so bold! A little black matting framed it nicely.

Poke around my site and you'll see just how much I love making my own backgrounds. The matching leaves stamped in a slightly darker ink than the paper makes for the perfect backdrop. 

Thank you all so, so much for joining me this week and all of your kind comments. I know some of you are now followers and I'm so very happy to have you here! I hope you all keep in touch - I'm always up to inky, caffeinated trouble around here. ;)
Happy Crafting!

So Suzy Stamps April Release

Happy April! It's release day over at So Suzy Stamps, but the joke was on the Design Team - we didn't get our stamps in time. Woops!

Enter me wheedling some digital stamps out of Suzy so I could still help out...and foil ALL THE THINGS!

No, really, I did:

Dear Scan 'n Cut - I puffy heart you. Thank you for cutting all of these out for me in about 5 minutes so I could go foil crazy. xoxo, me.

Now, because these are digital, they might be the wrong size. Don't hate, just look at the shinies. Shiiinnnyyyy....

Aw yeah. There's four new flowers in there coated with pretty, pretty foil. Some vellum and the Built from Fire sentiment (one of my faves) heat embossed with gold made the center, but then how to hide the vellum adhesive? Gold metallic paper frame to the rescue!

Don't forget, we have our March Design Team Challenge going on as well - voting is open until April 5th. Choose your favorite DT card here (coughMinecough) and be entered to win two stamps!

Stamps Used:
Built from Fire
Chrysanthemum Solid
Chrysanthemum Outline
Wispy Chrysanthemum Outline
Ranunculus Outline
Oh, and foil!

Happy Crafting!
