Guest Designer - Jamie Cripps


Welcome!  It's our first PSA Stamp Camp Guest Designer for Spring 2012. We had an enormous number of applications, more than any other before, so this was a tough decision.  Ultimately we settled on a designer with lots of experience and someone who demonstrated a versatility in styles.   Congratulations and welcome Jamie Cripps from Bits of Paper!

Her creative resume is impressive.   She's been published in Scrapbook Trends, Michigan Scrapbooker, Cricut Magazine, and is currently on seven (yes, 7!) design teams including Momenta, The Twinery and great others.  She updates her blog several times a week - be sure to visit her for lots of inspiration.

I was anxious to see what she designed using PSA Essentials stamps.  She didn't disappoint.   Here's what she came up with!  For the first card, she chose the sentiment "skip the cake, eat the icing" from PSA Dare to Dream.  This card is whimsical and beautiful at the same time.


She stamped the back of her card with her PSA Essentials personalized stamp which I had made with her blog address & name.


What's next really made me smile.  It's a box that you can fill with presents and goodies to welcome a new baby!


Check out the details here, she used stamps from PSA Little Bunny.


A seasonal card coming up - the colors remind me of St. Patty's Day.  She stamped "Make it happen" from PSA Dare to Dream.




We are welcoming all of Jamie's fans and followers of her blog Bits of Paper by hosting a giveaway of 1 custom stamp.   Only readers who are not already followers are eligible for this one.   Please become a follower via Google Connect or subscribe via "Follow by Email" newsletter to enter.   Leave a comment letting us know you've done so!   We will close this on 2/24/2012 and announce it 2/25 on PSA Facebook's page.  

Welcome Jamie Cripps, thank-you for these beautiful designs!   This post was linked up to Craft-O-Maniac Link party!
