Tubin' Duck!

Hey Everybody!  Today is my design team day here and I am so glad you are here to join us!  We have some great digis for you and I hope you like the card I have created for you to enjoy today :)  I used this awesome digi 7006 Floating and I think this duck is so stinkin' adorable.  It cracks me up because his face almost looks upset but I like to think it looks that way just  because he's sooooo relaxed.  Please stop on over at my blog if you are looking for any more information!




Happy Birthday ...

Good morning! Ruza here to share a Birthday Card featuring the adorable Birthday Girl (15402).


Our Birthday Girl was colored with Copic Markers and fussy cut out.  I wanted to add a little extra dimension to my design so I used my Nestabilities Circle Die to cut out some balloons, stamped the sentiment from products in my stash and set them on the side.  Since I used the Digital version of the stamp I printed 2 copies.  The second copy was cut down to size, and distressed along the bottom with Distress Inks.  Next step was to attach my balloons, sew on some twine for the strings, and then attach the Birthday Girl.

As stated above, I used the Digital version of the Birthday Girl, however, she is also available as unmounted Natural Red Rubber.

Until next time ... Enjoy!

A little Bit Of Magic...

Hello there....

Today it is Katie sharing my latest creation for QKR Stampede.

As soon as I saw this cute magician I knew I had to make something using this image!



The digi images can be found here and here.

Recipe & Method:

1.  Cut and score a White Card 5" x 7".

2.. On to the front of the card layer Purple card stock, inside the card layer one side Yellow and one side Purple. 

3.  Add the text paper to the front of the card, nd on the right hand side of the inside of the card.

4.  Colour the images and layer then on to Yellow card stock, attach one to the front and the other on the inside of the card.

5.  On the left inside adhere the Red Star Paper.

6.  Add the Happy Birthday sentiment and embellish the card with die cut stars.

I coloured the image using Promarkers: Violet, Sunflower, Cool grey 2, Cool Grey 3, Caramel, Almond, Dusky Pink.

This will make a great card for any Harry Potter fan or just someone who is a little bit magic!!

Masculine Scripture Card

I have been taking classes online at Regent University for a couple of years, and I wanted to make a card for my favorite professor. I chose the 2 Corinthians 5:17 stamp because I had to write a ten page paper on this verse for him; I'm so glad Eureka carries it! The card was far less time consuming to do than the paper, lol! Along with the alphabet set, in which letters are also available to be purchased individually, Eureka has a number of cubes that can be used for the background. The one I used for this card happens to come from the Winter set of four; I wanted a masculine card, and the pine branch seemed a good fit.

Bear It All

Hi, Deb here with an August QKR Stampede Design Team project called Bear It All. This is very unique card because it's a multi-layered project that features a shaped front. How cute is this sneaky bear who's trying to escape the hospital? He's guaranteed to bring a smile to that special someone who is in hospital and might be feeling the same urge to get away.


Here's how to make this project.

Start by cutting a 5x7 inch card in blue and then cut the front panel down to two inches high. Next, cut a slightly smaller card in white and attach the white back panel to the blue back panel.

Print the front and back of the bear ( Sneaking Bear and Sneaking Away ) and the sentiment ( Bear It All ). Color the bear with Copics.

For the bear’s fur, use E55, E55 and E57. When totally dry, moisten a scrap of washcloth with a couple of drops of Copic Colorless Blender. Dab randomly over the bear, holding the cloth to the image for a second to allow the solution to remove some of the color. When dry again, color the night shirt with C00, C1 and B41. The band-aid can be done in E11.

Cut the front and back of the bear out with small scissors. Adhere the front of the bear by his feet to the card front. Then adhere the back of the bear to the front.


 Decorate the front of the card with strips of cardstock embossed with a Cuttlebug folder, strips of ribbon, a button and a brad (looks like a paw print if you squint), and dots of Stickles.

Back the sentiment with the blue cardstock and attach to the inside of the white card.

This bear image just made me giggle when I first saw it. I’ve been in hospital a few times and I certainly felt that baring it all was turning me into a bear!

Mouse and Clock



This image is called digi23602 Mouse and Clock I pick this because the clock tells you the time throughout the years. First I use mask of diamond and distress ink called Tattered Rose then put Perfect Pearls on which matched the clock then I put a ribbon across the card.  The image shape I used is called clear scoring board just different shape. Hope you like it .
