Joy Clair Stamps - Saved by Grace!

Monday, June 24, 2019

Hello everyone!

I am here with Joy Clair Stamps with a beautiful card created using the Joy Clair Stamp set "Saved by Grace".  This is a nice large stamp set, it is a 6x8 stamp set with 17 images and sentiments in it.  I love the bold lettering in this set. 



Here is my card and how I put it together:

1.  My card is an A2 top folding card,
2.  I stamped the flower images in several colors on my card from the "Saved by Grace" stamp set,
3.  I stamped the large sentiment on my card using black ink,
4.  I then stamped two flowers and some leaves from the Joy Clair Stamps "Saved by Grace" then cut them out using my scan and cut.  I then used foam squares to adhere them to the top of my card to give my CAS card some dimension,
5.  To finish off my card I added some black enamel dots from my stash.

Rinea - Foiled Box

Friday, June 21, 2019

Hello everyone!

I am here with Rinea again this month sharing a thank you box I created using Rinea Foiled papers. This box is great for a small gift for a birthday or gifts for a wedding party with the beautiful papers. On this box I used the Rinea Jade/Gold Glossy Solid paper and the Rinea Fushsia/Gold Glossy Paper.  The stamps I used on my project are Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps, the flower is called Flower Swirl  and the Thank You is from the Tiny Words set of 4 stamp set.

Here is how I put my box together:

1. I cut four panels of the Rinea Jade/Gold Glossy Solid paper,



2. I then added double sided strong tape to the tabs on the cut pieces,


3. I then attached all the sides together and here is what it looked like,



4. I then die cut three panels for the sides and 4 pieces for the top using Rinea Fushsia/Gold Glossy Paper and adhered them to my box,

5. I then stamped the front panel using Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps and sentiment, die cut it out with a stitched die and adhered it to my card.

The box was very easy to put together, adding the panels onto the box really makes it sturdy.

Joy Clair with Clear Scraps!

Thursday, June 20, 2019


Hello everyone!

I am here with Joy Clair Stamps and Clear Scraps!  The design team has joined forces with Clear Scraps and we will be showcasing their products with Joy Clair Stamps for a few days!  Please stop by the Joy Clair blog and see all the wonderful creations.

I have created two projects using Clear Scraps products.  I hope you will enjoy them and will get some inspiration along the way.

My first project I am using the Clear Scraps "Heart Woods Phone Stand".  This was so much fun to create and I found the perfect Joy Clair Stamp set to go along with it.  The stamp set I am using is from the Color by Faith line of stamps called "Call on the Lord".  The sentiment from this set fit perfect on the stand.  I used some beautiful design paper that I used liquid glue to adhere it to the stand, I stamped the sentiment on top using black ink.  I stamped the image from the "Call on the Lord" stamp set, which says "Jesus is Calling".  I adhered it to the base.




My second project is a cute mini album from Clear Scraps called "Notes Wood Card", it measures 3.75 x 5.75.  Again, I found the perfect Joy Clair Stamp set to go with it called Color by Faith line of stamps called "Send Me".  I thought this mini album would be perfect to take with you if you were going on vacation and wanted to take notes or add pictures.  There are two pieces to the mini album, I stained the album using Tim Holtz Distress Stain Vintage Photo.  I then stamped on of the album the word "go" and the airplane using black ink.  I then stamped the images from the "Send Me" stamp set and adhered it to the top of the album with liquid glue.




I hope you have enjoyed these products, don't forget to stop over at Joy Clair's blog and see what the other design team members have created.

I had the alcohol ink piece that I had and thought it would be perfect for this, I added some Turquoise Sea ink around the sentiment with my “Life Changing” Blender Brushes before removing from the die and adhered it to the alcohol piece, I then stamped the starfish with Gina K.

My last card from the Ocean Minded Card Kit I think is my favorite.

I die cut the word "shine" from the kit and used some glossy accent to give the word some shine and dimension. I then stamped the sentiment from the Sunshine mini stamp set with versamark using Gina K. fine white embossing powder and heat set it and adhered the strip to my card with black foam squares.
