Card Contest Winner

Old Stuff Winner

Congratulations go to Christine of Belleville our “Old Stuff” Contest Winner.  Christine has won many times in the past and her Cards just keep getting better. 

She said she found an old picture with the old clay pots, old watering can and the old spade garden shovel. She even used an old pair of scissors to trim the edges with the scraps, no doubt, she dumped those scraps into the old wastebasket.  So this is an “Old Stuff” Card

Then she said she “framed it” using the stamp M11036 Lily Frame….. but she enlarged the frame part by cutting out the lines section of the frame and making the frame appear longer…. as all good stampers know, “You don’t always use every stamp the way it was designed”
Once again Congratulations Christine…… lets see what you have for us next!

Send us your card creation for our monthly card contests. The winner gets a $20.00 store/show/online credit. Not every fancy card wins, not every dazzling card wins…. the Card that wins is the one that feels right for the occasion. Please note that your Card…. must incorporate one or more of Frog’s Whiskers Ink or Rosewood stamps or products in the design of the card.

In our next Card Challenge ….. ……, lets take a look at “ICE CREAM” because  National Chocolate Ice Cream Day is June 7^th   However, we probably don’t need any additional incentive to eat Chocolate Ice Cream. With the arrival of warm, summer weather, cooling off with a little (or a lot) of chocolate ice cream is a natural. …. So let’s enjoy it…. , Please note… your Card must express the essence of the Card Contest theme

 

Looking Forward to seeing Your Cards

Guy Cards

Guy cards are often a challenge in card making.   We’ve added a few feature stamps that make great guy cards and with Father’s Day fast approaching at least one of these is sure to inspire.  Have a look HERE, these are all available in both wood mount stamps and cling mount.  Below is a slightly more detailed card but with a few stamps and some cutting it can be recreated.

 

Clearance Stamps

We are no longer manufacturing cubes but we do have a limited supply of remaining cubes deep discounted to clear.  The small cubes are priced at $2 and the large ones are $3.

These two images are overstocked and also marked on at clearance prices as indicated.  Unfortunately there is no easy way to add these to the our website, so if you would like to order one please email us or if you are placing an order on the website add the stamps you want to the comments section and we’ll get them shipped off.

The Canadian Cottage Experience

Can you believe it. It’s getting close to the big day!!  Next week (Apr 13-14) we will be setting up our booth at ScrapFest in Kitchener.   If you have  the date on your Calendar then …… stop by our Booth #205, and say “Hello”
We will have demo’s at the booth with Make & Takes though the day but… Rose-Marie will be teaching an expanded in-depth class in the special area set aside at the show.

Cottage Country Folding Card…
Enjoy nature at its best, surrounded by the Canadian Cottage experience. Loons, geese & maybe a little fishing, you will get to create the perfect cove. Take part, as we will be layering colours,  blending inks and then over-stamping with some of the Rosewood Stamps – Cottage Country Collection. This fun and easy card is suitable for beginner stampers and interesting enough for our Cardmakers who have more experience. The Pattern and a FREE stamp are included with this Class.
Cost $20.00, Time approx. 1 1/2 hour class.

Class space is limited so pre-registration is recommended.
