It's Robyn - My Pink Stamper's Birthday

Today is Robyn - My Pink Stamper's Birthday

Supplies & Instructions

All images were filled with patterns or colors from the Elise Cricut Imagine Cartridge

Tree cut 5"

Label cut 1.5"

(Sorry I can't figure out what cartridge the label was cut from. I looked all over but I can't find it. If someone knows what it is please let me know.)

Please go and wish Robyn - My Pink Stamper, Happy Birthday at her website, www.mypinkstamper.com

Welcome to Simple Creations where I love to inspire others to craft and cherish memories through scrapbooking, cards, and home decor.

I have had the honor of serving on the My Pink Stamper design team. This month I will begin my third term designing for Robyn. It as been so much fun. Her stamps are made of amazing quality photopolymer and stamp really well. Not to mention she has made so many great stamp sets to go with every occasion. These stamps work great on cards, scrapbook layouts, or any home decor project you have. I first came across My Pink Stamper on youtube.com. Her youtube channel is Robyn Stamps. She has made hundreds of great instructional video of how to make projects using the Cricut machines and stamps. She even has made instructional DVD's with videos never seen anywhere else. 

Here is a project I made using My Pink Stamper's - Sweet Goodness Stamp Set.

I designed this card on my Gypsy using:
Straight From the Nest Cricut Cartridge

Button #33 - Cut at 3.5"

Line up the papers to cut out all the cupcake layers on one cutting mat.

Cut out the cupcake on the Cricut Expression.

I cut out the cupcake using several pattern papers to create a colorful cupcake.

Ink around the icing & cherry on the cupcake using:

Color Box Chalk Ink - Dark Brown

I used a sponge to control how much ink I applied to the paper.

Here are most the supplies I used to create the card.

Use Seeing Spots Cuttlebug Embossing folder on the red paper to create the raised circles.

Tie twine around the card and tape on the back to hold in place.

Stamp the sentiment from My Pink Stamper's - Sweet Goodness Stamp Set

Autumn Wall Vinyl

I made this Vinyl Wall Art for our living room wall above our couch. We have such a long wall and I don't know what type of pictures to put there so I make Holiday Vinyls for it. See the Christmas one I made last year by clicking HERE. 

I designed it on my Gypsy using the following Cricut Cartridges.

Create A Critter

Leaves - Shift Layer 2 - Button #28 - Cut at 6"

Gypsy Wanderings

Autumn - Button #27 - Cut at 8"

Straight From the Nest  

Leaves - Button #29 - Cut at 9"

Stretch Your Imagination  

Leaves - Button #17- Cut at 2.84"

I cut the vinyl on a 12"x24" Mat

I used a "Kiss Cut" which means it will cut the vinyl but not the backing.

Blade depth - 3

Speed - 3

Pressure - 3

It is also important to have a sharp blade to cut the vinyl clean.

I also flipped some of the images on my Gypsy so that the leaves would mirror each other and curve around the word Autumn.

All of the vinyl I used on this project was purchased from Expressions Vinyl. They have great prices, great quality, and quick shipping.

I also really like Provo Crafts Vinyl. It can be purchased at local Craft Retailers or Cricut.com

If you have any questions about cutting vinyl, let me know. Its actually quite addicting once you get started. I want to vinyl all over my house now.

My Pink Stamper Pink-alicious Blog Hop

Welcome to Simple Creation's and My Pink Stamper's Pink-alicious Blog Hop. If you came from June then you are right on track. If you are just begining the hop, then go to www.mypinkstamper.com to start at the beginning.

Hi, I'm Angela.  I want to start off sharing a bit about myself so you can get to know me. I love to craft and do anything with my hands. I get to stay home with our two little girls. They keep me very busy so I try to craft during nap time or when I get a chance. My four year old crafts with me and knows how to use every tool.

God is a huge part of my life. My husband and I are pastors at an amazing church. I am very involved with the Nursery, Young Adults, Worship Team and run our Young Adult Cafe. So even though I "stay home" life is always busy, but I love what I do.

I love to craft with my Gypsy, Cricut Expression, Cuttlebug, Stamps, & Copic Markers. My favorite paper line is Core'dinations because it cuts so well on the Cricut and then I can sand it to accent another color. I love the quality of My Pink Stamper Stamps. They stamp so well & work with both Scrapbooking & Card Making. I am honored to be on this design team for a second term and look forward to getting to know you more. I love reading all your comments.
