Paper craft project no. 447: Close your eyes and wish STAMPlorations 3rd birthday blog hop



It's STAMPlorations' birthday today! Yes, my little stamp company is three years old. I'm so thrilled with how it has grown and even more thrilled that I have so many amazing and talented artists in my design team! I'm proud to say that I have best designers :o)

Together, we're celebrating our birthday for the next 7 days and oh boy, you're in for a treat -- we've got dozens of inspiration and over $200 worth of prizes to give away! All you gotta do is visit the STAMPlorations blog and designers' blogs and leave comments along the way -- easy peasy! The hop starts here.


For my celebration card, I used the sweet stamps from Deepti's new set, Kathryn's Birthday Wishes. Deepti's muse for this set is my little girl, Kathryn Corazon, who is 10 months old today! I was touched when Deepti showed me the rough draft of this set a couple of months ago and I knew it was the perfect set to release in time for our third birthday :o) I stamped the balloons and Kathryn and then used the coordinating CUTplorations dies. I went to town with the markers (I used 4 different brands -- Chameleon, Aqua Markers, Sharpies, and BIC -- just for the fun of it). I die-cut the panel using the CUTplorations large crazy stitch rectangle die.

Our birthday week is also the perfect time to launch the new addition to our family of products: CUTplorations thin metal dies!

Then there are also prizes (stamps and CUTplorations thin metal dies) for those who will link up a celebration or birthday themed project by Tuesday, July 5, as inspired by the mood board below.

And if you visit the STAMPlorations Facebook page, you can win a gift certificate for you and friend :o)

So appreciate your time visiting my blog and leaving a comment. Please check out what the rest of the STAMPlorations girls have made today. If you get lost hopping along the way, you can always go back to our main blog here.

Thanks for stopping by! Don't forget to smile :o)

  8. Happy Anniversary STAMPlorations! What a great idea to make coordinating dies, I absolutely hate fussy cutting so this is a definite plus. Love the Crazy stitch rectangles too, a good way to add something without overpowering the design.

  12. Wildly cheering and applauding your three year anniversary, Shery! You and David have worked hard - both behind the scenes and in the forefront - to make your company the success it is...and WHAT a success! Fabulousness in every realm, from the products, to the DT inspiration, to the perks, to you, the 'face' of STAMPlorations! You, my friend, are awesome! Your card...crushing all over your *Kathryn* with her balloons! Cuteness to the max! Just one more thing: I *have* to say: I'm soooo stoked that die-cuts are joining the STAMPlorations line-up..perfect for my die-cutting obsession! Just wish Canada Post wasn't threatening a strike! How am I going to get some of those gems to my place? I don't want delays *grin* Maybe the strike won't happen...fingers crossed!
    Hugs~c
