My Little Yarn Kitty

Hi there everyone! It's Taylor here, and Saturday is my day to post a card on the 2 Cute Rubber Stamps blog. I'm really looking forward to sharing a new project with you every week!

This week my card is cute and simple. I used darker cardstock colors to help the ultra-busy Basic Grey dp stand out. I handstitched the two pieces of dp together and then handstitched those two pieces to the orange cardstock. I also added two small "x" shaped stitches to my scalloped frame for the sweet little kitty.

My kitty is colored with Copics and I just think he is the sweetest image! His name is actually Cat-Knit and guess what? He, along with the other images by 2 Cute Rubber Stamps, are available in cling cushion AND digi now! How great is that? Check them out at the store.

You Whooo!

You whooo! It's me, Amanda (aka: Crafty Paper Girl) and my post day here at 2 Cute is every Friday- to get you moving into the weekend with an inspirational creative kick!

It's no secret that I love owls... they are so versatile, vintage and cute, so when I saw this image on Heidi's list, I immediately snagged it and started creating! This little cutie actually has a flower attached, but I cut it off to coordinate better with the papers I wanted to use. The inside message reads: "Owl always be there for you."

Supplies: Stamp: Owl Miss You; Patterned Papers: Sassafrass and Cosmo Cricket; Color Medium: Copics; Other: red twine

I hope you signed up to follow this blogaroo already, but if you didn't, what are you waiting for? Heidi is giving away a free Wooden Stamp to one of her followers next week! Have a happy, crafty weekend!

Strawberry and Chocolate Turtle Sundae

Happy Wednesday everyone! I’m Juanita and I will be doing the Wednesday posts here at 2 Cute Rubber Stamps DT blog. I made this card using Turtle Sundae Stamp. Isn’t this stamp so adorable? I decided to make my card girly. So I made the sundae Strawberry and Chocolate and used those colors on my card. This image is so versatile that you could easily use different colors to make it a boy card or even a neutral card. For more details about my card please visit my blog.

Be sure to keep checking the 2 Cute Rubber Stamps Shop because Heidi plans on having her Cling Cushion Stamps up soon as well digis. Don’t forget to come back tomorrow to see what Heather has created for you with 2 Cute Rubber Stamps.
