Welcome to our Rubbernecker Blog Hop! I am so happy that you could join us in celebrating new Rubbernecker image collections! These images have been on the Rubbernecker site for a few weeks but we thought it would be fun for the designer to have a hop to show them off to you. The fun new collections are Scooter Kids, Animals and Friends. You can find these new collections as well as many others in the Rubbernecker 2011 Release.
We have a wonderful group of women on our design team. I have had the privilege of working with Rubbernecker since the fall of 2007. I have enjoyed knowing many of our members since I joined Splitcoaststampers in 2005. Several of us are old broads and some are young but we enjoy a close relationship much like family. We are celebrating this family relationship by naming our design team “Stampin’ Sisterhood”.
We hope you will enjoy our blog hop. You are going to have the opportunity to win a $25 Rubbernecker Stamps Certificate by visiting and commenting on all our team participants listed below. The winner will be announced on the Rubbernecker blog post this coming Tuesday. Good luck!

My first project is made using the fun Elephant from the Animal Collection.
I stamped the image twice on pink paper with black versafine and embossed with clear embossing powder. I cut the head and trunk out to pop up to create a little dimension. I crimped the ears a little for a touch of texture and mounted the image over a crimped piece of white cardstock. I liked the black and pink frame layered over the embossed pink cardstock. I love the little black reminder bow on the trunk and hooked to the “Sorry- I Forgot” sentiment. The little pink flowers were attached to the frame with Glossy Accents and I used a black Glaze pen to fill in the flower centers.
My second project was made using an image and sentiment from the Friends collection.
I made this whimsical card for the Splitcoaststampers Featured Stamper challenge. My layout and theme was inspired by Penny Allen's card. I loved Penny's layout and thought it would be perfect to feature this sweet whimsical flower image. I stamped the image with Black Versafine and embossed with clear embossing powder. I painted with reinkers mixed with water. I loved the funky fun designer paper by Debbie Mumm for the background layer.
I hope you enjoy all of our team projects. Thanks for stopping by.

You had me at pink and black, but then you add that adorably goofy looking elephant with his crimped ears and reminder ribbon on his trunk and ya just gotta squeal with delight at the cuteness of it all. At first I thought your frame was made with flower eyelets, but I see you have, once again, incorporated your sweet little floral creations. So very cute, Kittie!
Great choice of papers and colors with your pretty pot of flowers. I like how you used just one of “friend” from the “friend to friend” sentiment.
Sooooooo adorable!!! These cards are so wonderful! That little elephant with his sweet ears…fabulous!!!!

Fabulous creations Kittie, but who would expect anything less? lol
