Snag'em!

When Imaginisce introduced their 

little pieces of art called "Snag'em" stamps

a few years back, I immediately fell in a lot of love!

They're perfect for all sorts of projects, especially if you're

wanting to create several of the same thing, such as cards or tags.

 Here are a couple of sweet cards that I crafted

using Snag'em stamps from Monster Mash and Christmas Cheer.

 Here's a little tip that makes a lot of difference when stamping with clear stamps:

lay a piece of foam or cloth under your project before stamping.

This allows the paper to meet with all of the image and leaves you

with a clean design!  In coloring in my stamped images, I'm fond of

using watercolor pencils or dye based markers such as LePlume by Marvy.

Supplies: Monster Mash- Mummy, Sugar Skull and Eddie Snag 'Em Stamps;

 Glam Rocks - Rhinestuds; Tools- i-rock LED Lighted Tweezers; i-rock;

 Big Shot and Lace Scalloped Die and Lollipop Font Die by Lifestyle Crafts

 

 In keeping with the homespun feel of the kraft card I wanted to 

create a blanket stitch around the edging, but I didn't want to stitch directly onto the card. 

Instead, I took a piece of kraft paper and cut it to the size of the card front. I was then

 able to add the stitching without losing the effect that I was looking for! 

When adding the Hot Rocks to the stamped trees, I just followed the pattern of the dots 

from the Christmas Joy Paper ... nice, neat and easy!
