Happy Monday… with a yummy giveaway…

Hope everyone is well!

I have a winner of the BasicGrey stamp set.  The lucky one is… Michelle Jadaa!  I will email you.

Thanks for all your ideas.  I will share some over the next few weeks.

I am off to California tomorrow for some meetings at Hero Arts.  Can't wait to see my Hero girls there – I have been missing them.  Just a quick post for tonight.

Quick share.  This was from a class a few weeks ago.  To do those snowflakes, I stamped with Versamark ink on vellum.  Then I traced over the stamped images with an dry embossing tool.  I then added it to the card upside down, so the raised area is up.  (If you want to see a video showing this technique, click HERE.)  The trees are stamped on the card behind the vellum in blue – looks like faraway trees.  This card is small – 4.25"x2.5"

All Hero Arts products.

And a giveaway!  Woohoo.  I love doing this. :)  I have two of these yummy sets from Making Memories – want to give one away.  Here's your chance… just leave a comment on this post by Tuesday at 11:59pmEDT telling me if you are a scrapbooker, cardmaker or both.  Here is the great Making Memories set…

I will be posting from CA, including more scraproom stuff.  See ya soon!

    Have fun in CA (it is soooo cold in Michigan). I started out as a scrapper, but then got into stamping and card making. I keep thinking about scrapping so I need to get back to it.

    Love your blog and fun ideas!
    I am both a cardmaker and a scrapbooker.
    Have fun at Hero Arts.

  4. Krista says:

    I’m a scrapbooker and a card maker …have been for almost four years…started just before my son was born….wanted to get in to scrapbooking way before then, but never had the chance…better late than never.

  5. StampinCathy says:

    I would say I’m a cardmaker and now and then a scrapbooker. Thanks for a chance at this sweet stamp set.

  6. PF Goh says:

    I am a card person, can’t get enough materials out here in Hk to be a scrapbooker

  7. Barb W says:

    I am both, but unfortunately I don’t have the room to have all my supplies out for both at the same time, and right now my cardmaking is taking over. Have gotten more and more orders for cards and it’s keeping me busy, BUT, I can’t wait until January when I will put the cardmaking supplies away and get out my Scrapbooking and have fun. I so enjoy working on our girls books and re-living all those special moments.

  8. Caroline says:

    I started out making cards and have for years. In the last year, I have started scrapbooking. I am now doing my children’s baby books. Oh, and by the way, my children are 26 and 28!

  10. Pat Woodruff says:

    I am a card maker with almost 20 years under my belt. When I look back at old cards now – I wonder how I could have sent them. Have not tried scrapbooking as I have no children to inspire me.

  11. felicia says:

    I’m a scrapbooker and cardmaker! (though i wish i was better at both:)

  12. Cindy Kelle says:

    I make cards, scrap, trade ATCs, alter items, do projects and especially love teaching paper arts to my grandkids(ages 7, 7 & 8). Their favorite spot in my house is my scraproom, where we are usually up to our elbows in ink, glue, glitter and scraps!
    Thanks for all your inspiration!

  13. Jennifer K says:

    I am both. I started out as a card maker – a friend had a Stampin’ Up! party 10 years ago and I got hooked. I then moved right into scrapbooking and I’ve been doing both ever since. Love it!

  14. sheena richmond says:

    Both….I think the two just go hand in hand! At the moment I probably do more card making though.
    Thanks for the great giveaway!

  15. Novalen says:

    I’m a scrapbooker… But i try to make cards to use my scraps, even though i find it hard to make cards!!

  16. Jingle says:

    I am all of the above and more! LOL! If it involves cutting paper, I pretty much love it! LOL!

  17. jenny says:

    The card is beautiful. I both scrapbook and make cards. I think my real passion is making cards!

  18. Tracy says:

    Oooooooh…. I would love this set!!!!

    I started out as a card maker, but once I had my daughter 4 years ago, I started scrapbooking for *me* (I was teaching it, but just never did it personally).

    So, in a nutshell, I’m now both and proud of it!

    Happy Veteran’s Day!!!

  19. Kathy H says:

    I am a cardmaker who would like to be a scrapbooker but am not there yet.

  21. donna e. says:

    very nice card!
    i think i am more of a scrapbooker than a card-maker. though i enjoy making cards very much from time to time.

    thanks for the chance to win your yummy giveaway!

    take care and God bless always! ๐Ÿ™‚

  22. What a beautiful card. I am always inspired.
    I am a scrapper, but have been enjoying cardmaking lately because I keep my grandboys while their moms work and I only have bits of time here and there to work on something.

    Hi Jennifer and good luck in CA! ๐Ÿ™‚
    I’m just a cardmaker, but for a few months I’ve been pondering about starting scrapbooking :p

  31. Elena Chamberlain says:

    Jen, you are one of my favorite designers. I love your ideas. I am a scrapbooker and learning to do cards. I am having trouble w/the results of my card creations. Especially the inside…I am definitely still on the learning curve. Thanks for all your great ideas. Especially the videos. They help a lot.

  32. Shirl says:

    I’m both. But lately I’ve only been doing cards. I feel like playing with paper but I’m just not feeling it to do a LO. So I make a card and I feel better! Love the embossed vellum!!!

  33. Heather M in Ohio says:

    I started as a scrapbooker and then got into cardmaking. I mainly digiscrap now but I still make cards traditionally.

  34. Heather Ruwe says:

    I am a scrapbooker and a cardmaker but lately, I have been creating a lot more cards than LO. I think it is b/c of the smaller canvas to work with. Less pressure. lol

  35. Sarah M says:

    Great card Jennifer!! You come up with the best ideas! ๐Ÿ™‚ Hope you have a great time in CA with the rest of the HA ladies. I started out mostly as a scrapper, but have been doing more stamping than scrapping lately.
