Tuesday Newbies

An early post this week. Summer appears to be over and cooler weather is moving in. We're moving out our summer stamps and moving fall to the forefront. Fall is my favorite season. I love the colors of the season. It's great  inspiration for wonderful card making and paper crafting. Here are some new products and some inspiration for you. 

We just got in this awesome new Pion paper. So fun for Halloween and a new color pallete for them. 

A Janelle creation using Right at Home stamps

I love Lawn Fawn! Here are a few stamp sets and dies we've had for awhile but we also have some new card samples for you. First up, "Sprinkled with Joy". 

A pop up die and examples of the cards you can make. 

More slider fun. Trees on the roof of a car is a recurring theme with several stamp and die companies this fall. 

Classic House Mouse and a box card, great for those a Taylored a Expressions mini's!

Love this fox!

Lastly this is our sample for the Altered Book class for Friday. Give the store a call and sign up soon! 

And a little decoration for you!

See you next week!

BSS MONDAY IDEA - PUPPY LOVE

Welcome to the Buffalo Stamps and Stuff  Idea.

Fall is definitely in the air.  And, I am loving it.

I bought this wonderful Christmas puppy stamp a few weeks ago.

Four years ago, we got a new puppy, after losing our beautiful dog

who was 13 1/2 years old.  We drove for six hours one way to pick her

out, and six hours home.  We did this because we had the pick of the litter.

Two weeks later, we drove back again to pick her up.

There is absolutely nothing like puppy breath and cuddling a furbaby.

So, when I saw this stamp, it reminded me of her and I wanted to color

it up to look like her at 8 weeks old.

Stamps - Stampendous - Patient Pup (W174)

Holly Sprig - Stampendous Cling Winter Tweets (CRS5092)

Inside Sentiment - Impression Obsession  (D8500)

Paper - White, Red Card Stock, Candy Striped Designer Paper

Gold Mirror Paper

Candy Cane Stickles

Colored with Copics

 Here she is just after bringing her home.

The stamp is just so sweet, who wouldn't love to

get a Christmas card with a darling puppy with a Santa Hat on?

And, you can color it up any color you want.

Thanks for stopping by today.

 Have a great week.

BSS MONDAY IDEA - HOW MANY DAYS...........

Welcome to the Buffalo Stamps and Stuff Monday Idea.

I saw a post the other day on Facebook with the days before Halloween, 

Thanksgiving, and Christmas listed.

So, I thought I should at least get going on a few Halloween cards

for my little friends I send cards to.

I bought this image at Sharon's booth at the Stamp Show recently.

My Granddaughter went away to college this month, and she misses

her kitty (an all black cat with yellow eyes), and her kitty misses her.

So I thought this sweet stamp was perfect.

Stamps - Wild Rose Studio - Halloween Cat (C1491)

Love you to the Moon and Bat - Hero Arts

Paper - Pearl Purple, black, white and orange dotted card stock.

Card is 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 inches with a white mat and a purple mat.

I used a small star hand held punch and punched some stars 

and small holes into the purple paper before adhering it

to the white card stock mat.

Bat and witches hat on inside are a Mega Marvey punch

Inside word die is Tim Holtz, Sizzix

A punched circle is sponged with a light yellow then a deeper 

yellow ink leaving the center white, for the moon.

Cat is colored with Copics, then fussy cut out.

Various stickles used.

Self stick star gems

So, how many more days until Halloween, 43

Thanksgiving 67, Christmas 98.

Thanks for stopping by today.

  Have a great week,

BSS IDEA - QUIRKY SNOWMAN ORMAMENT

Welcome to the Buffalo Stamps and Stuff Idea.

Finally, some relief from the oppressive humidity that we have had

for what seems like forever.  Was nice to open windows and actually

sit outside yesterday.  And  the plants in our yard  soaked up the

needed rain like sponges. 

I LOVE Woodware stamps.  And when I saw this quirky

 snowman ornament, just had to have it and could not wait to color it up and

make a card.  So many new Christmas and Fall stamps in the store

right now!!!
