Blessed

Hello, Jennie here today with a card to share that I made using Speaking of Fall:

 The sentiment and leaves were stamped using Memento Luxe Rich Cocoa ink and embossed with clear embossing powder. I used a herringbone embossing folder and embossed a panel of Core'dinations Tim Holtz Kraft-Core cardstock. Just love the texture it gives as it is embossed.

Here is The Craft's Meow stamp set I used on my card.

Birthday Greetings

Hello, Jennie here today with a ghosting technique to share using Craft's Meow stamps, stencils and Tim Holtz Distress inks.

First I sponged some Distress inks onto a white cardstock panel using distress inks and gathered a stencil and water spritzer.

Place the stencil on the inked cardstock panel and spray the panel with water.

Gently roll a paper towel roll over the stencil/panel to absorb the water.

Lift the stencil and finish the card as desired. I added one of the sentiments from Chalkboard Birthday

Here is The Craft's Meow stamp set I used on my card.

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Hi, Mixed Media Style

Hello TCM friends! Jennie here with a floral card today:  

I did a little mixed media on my card today by applying some gesso (to the patterned paper) and coloring the flowers using water and gelatos. The wooden butterfly was colored using a Big Brush marker. It is fun trying different coloring mediums with line art and this floral image is just beautiful. Ge

Here is are the sets I used:

Let's Go For a Spin

 Hello TCM friends! Jennie here with a card today! I used a a great summertime stamp set: In Tandem.

 Using a stencil I create a background by spraying Dylusions Squeezed Orange ink onto a ivory panel. Then I  stamped and embossed the sentiments using Versafine Oynx Black and clear embossing powder. The bicycle image was stamped/embossed and colored with Copics.

I just love this bicycle image!

Here is the stamp set I used on my card.

Our Design Team Family Grows!

Welcome to The Craft's Meow Store blog.
Julie Ranae here with you with some

pretty EXciting news for you today!

We are super-duper excited to welcome

Two

New

Designers

to our team!

Clare Buswell & Jennie Harper

Clare Buswell

"Hi! My name is Clare Buswell. 

Niall and I live in the south-west of Ireland in the countryside 

with our lovely 5 year old daughter Isabelle.

I've always been creative in some form or another, I have a passion for painting and I've tried lots of different crafts over the years. I love quilling and making my own embellishments. I studied graphic design at art college. I only discovered stamping after the birth of my daughter when I had little time for painting but longed to be creative. Card making was the perfect answer for me as it satisfied all my creative needs. I haven’t looked back since. I’ve been lucky enough to have my work published in Paper Crafts, CARDS and CardMaker magazines in the US and I design regularly for 

Cardmaking and Papercraft Magazine in the UK.

When I’m not paper-crafting I love to spend my time 

gardening, baking and with my family.

I’m so excited to be part of The Craft’s Meow design team!"

Jennie Harper

"Hello! My name is Jennie Harper and I am thrilled to be joining The Craft's
Meow design team! My husband and I live in North Carolina with our three
children, whom I homeschool. I was first introduced to paper crafting in
2000, but didn't quite understand the fascination with card making until
2005... when all of a sudden it hit me (like a ton of bricks)! Now rarely a
day goes by that I don't squeeze in a little crafty time. Paper crafting has
blessed me with sweet friendships from creative card makers from all over
the world!  This community of paper crafters is quite a treasure and I am
blessed to be a small part.
 
When I am not paper crafting, I love spending time with my family, reading,
and cooking! I am looking forward to working with The Craft's Meow team and
sharing my paper crafted projects with you!"

 

We are looking forward to having these talented ladies with us

and know they are the perfect addition to our

creative team!  

Look forward to seeing them during TCM's

New Release Week

beginning Feb 17th!

We hope you will take a moment to leave a note

to welcome Clare & Jennie to the TCM family!
