Crazy Crafters Blog Hop with Special Guest Allison Okamitsu




Hi Everyone

Welcome to the Crazy Crafters Blog Hop today with our special guest, Canadian Demonstrator, the one and only, Allison Okamitsu from Nice People STAMP . I am so excited to be a part of this of hop today as I have been following Allison for a while now and just love her projects.

You may be joining our hop here with me, Leisa Pedersen or you may have come from the person previous to me.  Where ever you started, don't miss a single post.  There are so many talented demonstrators in our hop today.

As Allison is our special guest, our theme is to CASE (copy and selectively edit) any project she has created.

This is Allison's card I chose to CASE:


As always when CASEing, we change things around a bit and here is my creation:


As it's Valentine's Day this week, this is my theme for my project....
this card was so much fun to make. 

I used Basic Black cardstock as my card base and matted with a design from the Tutti Frutti Designer Series Paper Stack.  I created another layer of Whisper White with Real Red as the matt.  I punched out four circles using the 1 3/8 Scallop Circle Punch and used my paper piercer tool to create the doily effect...just like Allison did!
Using the Lots to Love Box Framelits Dies, I die cut 4 hearts and added a touch of Wink of Stella around the edges and adhered to the doilies with Dimensionals.  I added the hearts in all directions, thinking I could make a sentiment like 'I Love You Always' but I couldn't find any current product in my stash that suited this... so onto plan B.  The sentiment I finally chose to use is from the Petal Palette Stamp Set and I used Stampin' Write markers to add the two colours. Stamped on Whisper White and punched out with the Classic Label punch, the sentiment completed my design.
And in true Allison spirit........I think it's "so stinkin' cute!"

  1. The doily effect! I need to use this technique. I don’t believe I’ve seen it before (or it could be that I haven’t noticed), so very clever. Thank you!
