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!

    I am a scrapbooker first, but I can’t imagine buying a card to give someone when I have so many fun supplies. So cardmaking comes from my not wanting to waste my scraps.

  2. Jennie says:

    Cute stamps! I love to do both – I have been doing more cards lately though… Thanks for a chance!

  3. CK Chai says:

    I love both scrapbooking & making cards. But I make cards more than I scrapbook. Stamping is my favourite, which I will always incorporate into both 🙂

    Scrapbooker only;)

  5. Jamie says:

    I am first and foremost a scrapbooker and I am now loving to make cards as well!! The only problem is that I feel guilty when I am making cards since I have sooo many pictures waiting to be scrapbooked:)

  6. Debbie Mercer says:

    Hi Jennifer. that card is great just like all the others. i learn so much from your blog. I am both a scrapbooker and a card maker and i love how you show examples of using stamping techniques on scrapbook pages. Keep up the fabulous inspiration.

  7. Anita says:

    Hi! I am a cardmaker – haven’t bought a card since 2000! I like that it is a project that can be started and finished in a couple of hours.

  8. Bonnie C says:

    I am a scrapper and would love to make cards too but never take the time, then its too late.

  9. Megan says:

    I am a scrapbooker. But I also love to make cards for special occasions.

  12. Jennifer Loucks says:

    So cute! I am a card maker. (I keep saying I’ll do some scrapbooking, but I know too many people with birtdays and holidays to make time!)

    Hi,
    I’m a cardmaker, and a stampfreak.
    Love your work Jennifer, but I think I already said that about 200 times.
    And thanks again for the chance to win.
    Enjoy the trip to California.
    Greetings to all the HeroArtsGirls from Belgium.

  14. Amy Y says:

    I started off as strictly a scrapbooker but within the last 18 months I have discovered the fun of cardmaking… and my paper scraps are finally under control!

  15. Sanji says:

    I love doing both, but I have been doing more scrapbooking lately. I love your snowflake and tree card! I might have to make one just like that! The stamp set looks great!!
    Thanks!

  16. Sue says:

  17. Jennifer says:

    I am a scrapbooker who like to stamp and make cards…

  18. Cari says:

    I am a scrapbooker but seeing your cards makes me want to be a cardmaker! I just don’t seem to enjoy the process as much!

  19. Karen B. says:

    Love the card!!! I am really a scrapbooker but I do make cards, only occasionally! I would love to make more though. Have a safe trip!

  20. Laurie says:

    I started scrapbooking 10 years ago, said I would not start stamping because it was another hobby entirely….Now I am hooked on both! I love them equally as much! 🙂

  21. Sheryl B says:

    I am definitely both…but more a cardmaker these days…especially with an infant. 🙂

  22. Robin O says:

    I am both 🙂 Have fun at your Hero Art’s meeting.

  24. AndiD says:

    I’m both. I started as a scrapbooker, but now I really enjoy making cards as well.

  25. Sesil in Chicago says:

    I started off as a card maker and now I am both. I am totally addicted. I work at my local scrapbook store and love it. Totally bummed that CHA is no longer in Chicago. It was so easy to attend when it was in my backyard. We will see how many people will be going for our store. Love your stuff. :)sesil

  26. Laura Fitzmaurice says:

    I am a scrapbooker, but I have recently started cardmaking. I have to say it really is addicting. My husband is deployed right now so the cards I make are mostly “We miss you” card from me and my kids.

  27. Bridget N. says:

    I am a scrapbooker first, but I also love to make cards. I tend to brain-fart my way through scrapbooking (I’m slooooooow!). Making a card is like instant gratification. A card can be done way more quickly than a spread. I can’t see myself stopping either hobby, though!

  28. Melissa Bove says:

    I am both a scrapbooker and cardmaker. But I must say, that I am loving making cards lately the most!! Thanks for a chance!

    Hugs, Melissa B

  31. amy says:

    I am a scrapper and a card maker….and highly addicted to both. 🙂

    I am both but I must admit that I haven’t scrapbooked in awhile. I have been really into making cards lately. Have a good trip!

  33. Jill Swanson says:

    I love this card. Can’t wait to try the dry embossing technique. Hope I am the winner. Jill S

  35. Lisa Smiley says:

    Definately both, plus a baker! Thanks for the giveaways!

  36. Dani says:

  40. Holly says:

    Card maker all the way!!!

  41. Julie says:

    I make both scrapbooks and cards. I make a lot more cards now that I’ve found your blog!

  42. Lisa says:

    Scrapbooker first, card maker when I need one.

  43. I started as a scrapbooker but I found I didn’t have enough photos so I ended up just making fancy pages with no pictures. LOL So yeah, now I’ve scaled that down and am a card maker. 🙂

  44. Luisa says:

    I am both! Scrapbooker and Cardmaker. I scrapbook because I love to document our daily lives. And I do cards to give away to friends in special ocassions and just begining to do them to sell to some friends that have been requesting me to do their Xmas cards, so this year I finally decided to give it a try. Right now I have only 9 orders of 13 sets of 12 cards each. Lots of work coming… Thanks for the giveaway.

  45. Kristi P says:

  47. Connie says:

    I have been making my own cards for 4 years.
    Love It!!! I enjoy all your tips and helps for better cards. Thanks for all you do..

  48. Susie says:

    I do both. I mainly scrap happy times and everyday events. Most of my cards are for church members who need a pick-me-up.

  49. Jackie W. says:

    I’m a cardmaker – I don’t have time to scrapbook much.

  50. Linzie says:

    I am a card maker. I am addicted to rubber stamps…I can’t stop buying them. I probably have at least a few hundred.

    I have tried my hand in scrapbooking, but my passion is stamping cards.
