Introducing another amazing Design Team Member!

 

 

Hi, my name is Michelle. 

 

Hi, my name is Michelle.  I moved to the US (Colorado) from England back in 1999.  As a stay-at-home mom to two young children I was quickly introduced to scrap booking, and from there began a love of all things paper crafting. 

Most recently I have been enjoying card making, and coloring with alcohol markers. I'm excited to be part of the C Thru The Woods Design Team.  I truly love these images - they are so much fun to color and create with.

I also design for a local scrapbook store here in Colorado - A Scrap N Place, many of my guy projects can be seen on their blog too   http://blinggirlscrapin.blogspot.com/

 

Please check out my blog at http://ladyofleisureink.blogspot.com/

 






Michelle recently took a trip with her husband to Hawaii and was inspired to make this amazing card featuring the Jeremiah stamp!  I love the colors she uses!  Please be sure to follow her work both here, on her blog and at the Scrapbook Page!  She is going to be busy, busy, busy!

I am pleased to introduce another new Design Team Member!


 Meet Rosie Posie!!
  • My grandmother taught me the importance of scrapbooking when I was 5 years old. I love looking back and seeing my first written words and photos of friends on those pages. Since then I have mainly scrapped for 28 years. I dabble in cards for close friends and family (birthdays and holidays). Cricut is more up my alley. I collect the machines and cartridges...lol! I won my first girl doll stamp at a crop in may of 2014. Since then I was obsessed with them! I googled and pintrest searched doll stamps and discovered C Thru the Woods. Fell in love all over again and have had a blast making tags instead of cards. I have a blog :
  • http://memurz.blogspot.com/?m=1
  •  
  • That blog was used for a few years to keep track of those studio g dollar stamps. I found myself with so many I had to stop! Fortunately, those little stamp sets come in handy with accessories or phrases to use with my doll tags. I will be posting more of my creations on my blog.
I just love Rosie's creativity!  She used the Jeremiah stamp along with the Frankenstein monster mask and came up with this fun Halloween tag!!  Please be sure to visit her blog often and follow her here!!

Adding more Design Team Members!!!

Good day to all!!

Over the next few days it will be my distinct pleasure to introduce you to a few more extraordinary ladies who have graciously decided to be part of our Design Team.  These ladies will be bringing you brand new ideas for working with my guy stamps.  I hope you decide to follow along and I hope you enjoy the projects!!
 
This fun tag was created by new Design Team Member Shannon Miller!! As you can see, Drake is not afraid to wear pink!!  He is a manly man!! 
 
Here is a little about Shannon, you can also find her biography under the Design Team tab on the blog!  Please visit her pages, say hi and follow her posts!!  You won't be disappointed!!

My name is Shannon Miller,


 I am a daughter, sister, friend and mom to 2 amazing children. I have been a scrapbooker, cardmaker for 14 years. My artistic style has evolved over the years and I find that I am drawn to mixed media as it allows me to try new techniques and products. My passion for learning and expressing myself through my art has allowed me to grow as an individual through challenging projects and stepping outside of my comfort zone. 

 In addition to scrapbooking and cardmaking I enjoy dabbling in my art journal, tags, making mini albums, canvas’ and off the page projects.
 
I enjoy meeting fellow crafters and hope to inspire others through my creations.

Meet Timmy!

Timmy is the baby of the bunch so far and doesn't get caught wearing his shoes very often!
I just love this stamp, he is so playful and young-spirited!
He is going to measure right around 7.5 inches and will come with a baseball cap.
He will be $10 plus shipping/handling of $1
I expect to have him the first week of November, as soon as he is on his way to me, I will put him on the website for sale at www.cthruthewoodsclearstamps.tictail.com

Drake has arrived!! Great Halloween Stamp!


Drake is sort of a throw-back to what I think of as 60’s comical Dracula.  He has slicked back hair, bell bottom pants, cape and of course, fangs and a cleft for his chin!!  I wanted a little more versatility for him and created two additional Halloween masks—which is something I have never personally seen done.  He can be a Phantom of the Opera and/or a very suave Frankenstein monster!
He is now on the tictail site so you can purchase him directly at www.cthruthewoodsclearstamps.tictail.com
