<p>I&#8217;m very excited to be guest designing for KK and his Etsy stores - <a href="http://www.etsy.com/people/craftpon">Craft Pon</a> and <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/Stampcow">Stamp Cow</a> - two stores that offers many crafting supplies and wooden stamps.  For the next week or so, I will be sharing some cards and projects that I have made his stamps and supplies!</p>
<p>I had the opportunity to play around with some of the adorable stamps that <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/Stampcow">Stamp Cow</a> offers. It has been awhile since I&#8217;ve worked with wooden stamps <img src='http://s0.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Today, I&#8217;m sharing two mini cards featuring the adorable <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/150630547/cute-robot-big-head-ii-wooden-mounted?ref=shop_home_active">Cute Robot</a>.</p>
<p>The first one is a very simple paper pieced robot, cut out and mounted on foam tape to the card. I did a little blending with some Hero Arts <a href="http://www.simonsaysstamp.com/servlet/the-48462/tide-pool-tidepool-blue/Detail">Tide Pool</a> around the edges and finished off with some American Arts twine.</p>
<p><a title="Little Robot - Say Cheese by *茵~, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/fishiee/9040214842/"><img class="aligncenter" alt="Little Robot - Say Cheese" src="http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2830/9040214842_2163d54209.jpg" width="450" /></a></p>
<p>My second card uses the same robot, paper pieced with some pattern paper from <a href="http://www.simonsaysstamp.com/servlet/the-44688/680045-STORY-TELLER-ONLINE/Detail">Crate Paper</a>. My mom bought a few guitar clips so I thought it&#8217;d be fun having my robot play the guitar! The card base was blended with Hero Arts <a href="http://www.simonsaysstamp.com/servlet/the-51869/af242-2013-soft-cantaloupe/Detail">Soft Cantaloupe</a> and <a href="http://www.simonsaysstamp.com/servlet/the-10112/tim-holtz-ranger-distress/Detail">Antique Linen</a>.</p>
<p><a title="Little Robot - Guitar Hero by *茵~, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/fishiee/9040216298/"><img class="aligncenter" alt="Little Robot - Guitar Hero" src="http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2811/9040216298_cf8aac474d.jpg" width="450" /></a></p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a close up of the two mini cards <img src='http://s0.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  I&#8217;m in love with this little robot and I can&#8217;t stop using it!</p>

<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1363" alt="ric#37" src="http://fishydesign.files.wordpress.com/2013/06/ric38.jpg?w=480"   /></p>

<p>The first thing I thought of was <i>letterpress</i>. But the problem was I didn&#8217;t have any embossing folders! So I decided to do something differently. I stamped the balloons from <a href="http://www.papersmoochesstamps.com/Smoocheroos_p/des-11-055.htm">Smoocheroos</a> and colored it in similar colors. Using a copic blender, I drew my own polka dots, stripes and grids to create a tone-on-tone look.</p>

<p>And of course, lots of glossy accents to finish it off <img src='http://s0.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m excited to be back with another week of <a href="http://papersmoochessparks.blogspot.ca/">Paper Smooches Sparks</a> with 4 <i>Cool Shades</i> this week <img src='http://s0.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" alt="" src="http://fishydesign.files.wordpress.com/2013/06/cool-shades-logo.jpg?w=480" width="250px" /></p>
<p>And this week&#8217;s <i>Cool Shades</i> is <span style="color:#ffcc00;">yellow</span>,<span style="color:#ccffff;"> mint</span>, <span style="color:#33cccc;">turquoise</span> and<span style="color:#99cc00;"> green</span>!</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" alt="" src="http://fishydesign.files.wordpress.com/2013/06/cs-june2013.jpg?w=480" width="250px" /></p>
<p>I used the light bulb from <em>Freezy Fellas</em> and stamped in repeatedly under the hand-stitched &#8220;strings&#8221; and coloured it in the cool shades colors.  Then I finished the card off with a sentiment from <em>Sentiment Sampler</em>.  Finally, a true one-layer card!</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><a title="Cool Shades by *茵~, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/fishiee/9059600826/"><img class="aligncenter" alt="Cool Shades" src="http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2883/9059600826_50955a03dc.jpg" width="450" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">
<p style="text-align:left;">Here&#8217;s a close up of the light bulbs.  I added some glossy accents to each light bulb to make them look a little more realistic <img src='http://s0.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

<p>The closest stamp related to travelling would be this paper airplane from Lawn Fawn&#8217;s <a href="http://www.lawnfawn.com/products/flying-by">Flying By</a>.  I used a few stamps from <a href="http://www.mamaelephant.com/">Mama Elephant</a> to create a cityscape &#8220;world&#8221; and a sentiment from <a href="http://www.mamaelephant.com/p/8550838/bling.html">Bling</a>.  </p>

<p>I did some masking, blending&#8230; and some more masking to keep it an almost-one-layer card.  I just couldn&#8217;t resist popping up the paper plane at the end.</p>
<p><a href="http://cas-ualfridays.blogspot.ca/" target="_blank">Play</a> along with us this week as the winner will win a stamp set from <a href="http://cas-ualfridays.blogspot.ca/">CAS-ual Fridays</a>!</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Welcome back to another week of <a href="http://cas-ualfridays.blogspot.ca/">CAS-ual Friday Challenge</a>!  This week, we&#8217;ll be looking at <i>Flags</i> and <i>Banners</i>, so get inky with those stamps, dies or just any banners and flags!</p>

<p>Since my mom was in Hong Kong during Mother&#8217;s Day, I wanted to take this chance to make up for the card.  I had already given her a present before she left but what&#8217;s a gift without a card?</p>
<p>I stamped the flower from <a href="http://www.papersmoochesstamps.com/Pretty_Momma_p/a1s-12-094.htm">Pretty Momma</a> and coloured it using whatever copics I have.  I really like the effect of glossy accents so I applied a thick coat on just the flower petals.</p>
