I believe I’ve seen some cell phone types of dies before – but this is more of a DIY kind of project – I created my phones with rectangle frame dies – and markers! The stamps with these kiddos in them is by Hero Arts – and it’s a fundraiser set in their Unity collection!

The people stamps are up to you – or you could do pet stamps or whatever you’d like in yours. I’m going to see if I can pull this off with a photo to use for my sister’s birthday card. Shhh don’t tell her!
The sentiments for these could be stamped on the background, but if you do crazy textures like me, well – that just might become unreadable! I chose to stamp them on white and use a hole punch to cut them out.
These are the skintones used for all the children in these cards:
The dark wood is my usual go to for tables; easy to do, and it’s nice and rich so I could heat embooss the sentiment.
I tried a more blonde wood this time – more rough boards than usual!
And marble, for an idea for my Hex Art class students!

No selfies — but love to capture precious moments and preserve special memories. Love this project.
This is the first time I have ever thought about using a cell phone on a card. Great idea.
I haven’t seen any cellphone stamps or dies, so this blew me away! A+ for creativity!
I love these! You always have such interesting ideas and you gave inspired me To use stamps in so many creative ways. Thank you fir continuing to share your gift. I love those little kids stamps. Super cute.
You are so creative. Love the idea. My last selfie was with my husband
Such a fun way to use these stamps! I love the idea of cell phone cards too. Using a photo or framing a kids drawing would be fun also. Thanks for the ideas and encouragement.
These little children are adorable and making them into cell phone cards is brilliant. I love all your card videos. Your coloring tips are so valuable. I am going to try this on faces. Thank you .
These are so cute, Sandy. Your coloring is amazing. I love watching you bring a scene to life and to make a background out of a plain piece of paper. Your talent is mesmerizing!!!
The last selifie I took was with my Grandson…it’s a precious picture as it was after his cross country meet a few weeks ago.
The last selfie I took was this weekend celebrating my 60th birthday. I was with my daughter.
I have to watch and see how you managed those rounded corners. The blonde wood looks good!
Beautiful cards! The last selfie I took was with my dog. That counts, right?
This is such a cool idea,. I just found you on you tube. This is great. I am very inspired by your copic coloring and your paintings.
These cards are wonderful. You are so creative. I last took a selfie with my husband.
These cards are amazing! I can’t wait to try this one! You have the most brilliant ideas to showcase your amazing talent! Thank you so much for sharing with all if us!
These cards are so cute! Very creative!!
Love these cards so cute and a creative and different way to use then!!
Omgoodness these are adorable I’ve been watching you for 3years and I’m always in aww of your coloring tyfs your card design
I never get tired of watching your colouring process and the shading you do. These are so sweet.
I hate getting my picture taken since my accident, but I can never say no to my 6 year old niece so it would have been with her. We’ve only been able to see them twice since corona-geddon started in February, so we are really missing my niece and nephew!
I really loved the cell phone cards. They are so cute and people do love their phones and photos!
Hi Sandy! It figures that this would be the giveaway question because I hate taking selfies so the answer would be no one. That being said I have always loved your work and to be honest watching you create these selfie cards actually brought tears to my eyes because I am middle-age bordering on old and just now realizing my own creativity. I have spent years being dissatisfied in my personal and work lives because I had no idea that my ladder had been on the wrong wall. So when I see your work and how you have perfected it quite frankly I feel as if I was cheated out of a much more fulfilling life 🙁 Sorry for the omg post.
Cell phones, great idea!
Hi Sandy. I absolutely love your cell phone cards. I have to try this. Blessings to you.
I took a selfie with my dear hubby just yesterday. We are newly retired and are Full-time RVers. This is such a precious set… Thank you for sharing with your viewers!
Just amazing as always!
I just love these cards! I hope you don’t mind me casing them!
I just love these cards! I hope you don’t mind me casing them! I just have to find some stamps that it will work as well as these did.lol
My two-year-old daughter! She loves to take pictures of herself!
I think the last selfie I did was with two girlfriends I have known since primary school (over 50 years ago) and we still keep in touch. This would be a great idea for doing a Christmas card for them,thanks for the idea and inspiration. I will have to try it
Excellent cell phone pictures! So creative.
These cards are adorable. Your coloring with copics is amazing. I just bought my first set (set b from Amazon) as I am just starting out making cards. I’ve been watching most of your videos learning more and more each day.
Thank you for your generosity allowing someone the opportunity to win these cute stamps with mojo!
I’ve never taken a selfie so I couldn’t comment on that,
The last person I did a selfie with was my very best friend, my husband.
Thank you for entering me into your stamp drawing!
Good morning Sandy! Your coloring technique is amazing! I love how your creations are always so stunning and life-like!
The last person I took a selfie with was my BFF. She was celebrating her 44th anniversary with her hubby at a hotel courtesy of their children, and she invited my sister (who was visiting from NY) and me to join them for breakfast at the hotel. We were so appreciative of her offer to join them, we ended up taking them to lunch at the Cheesecake Factory instead to celebrate their milestone.
Hi Sandy, I love to watch you color anything and to hear your process, thank you so much for sharing!
My last selfie was with my youngest nephew, he’s six and thinks pictures are still fun.
My last selfie was with my granddaughter, she’s 9 years old and a total ray of sunshine. We both enjoy watching you colour. Art is her favourite lesson at school. Thank you for your videos.
Adorable! Thank you for showing the copics used for each child. The shading tips were exactly what I needed as well. You are a fantastic teacher! (and generous to give away stamps!)
The last selfie I took was with my husband, who hates being in pictures. We were hiking and I just wanted to remember that lovely day with him. So I yelled at him and ordered him to stand still for just one second. He complied, reluctantly, but I got the shot I wanted. Amazing what love can accomplish! 🙂
